Mounting the panel
To mount the panel on a wall, do the following:
1. Choose a panel location.
2. Run all necessary power, phone, siren, and hardwired contact wires to the desired panel location.
Note: When choosing the AC outlet location for the AC power transformer, make sure the outlet is not controlled by a
switch or that it is not part of a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI).
3. Hold the panel against the wall and mark the mounting hole locations with a pencil.
4. Mount the back piece to the wall through the two horizontally centered mounting holes near the top
and bottom using the supplied mounting hardware. Use wall anchors if no studs are present (Figure 4).

5. Connect the chassis assembly to the mounted back piece and let it hang down. This makes the
terminal strip accessible for wiring various hardwired components to the panel.
6. Feed wires through openings in the back piece to be ready to attach them to the screw terminals or the
phone connectors.
7. Install all screws and tighten gently.
