Keyscan Inc. A Member of the Kaba Group – CA8WL-AL Rev. B Installation Guide (07.15)
Mounting the CA8WL-AL
Locate the area where the CA8WL-AL and, if required, the power supply, are going to be mounted. Follow the
mounting diagrams on the succeeding pages. Keyscan recommends a vertical mount on a solid, smooth
surface. Do not mount the access control unit close to high-voltage equipment. Comply with all local and
regional codes. Record the serial number listed on the control board. The serial number is a required entry in
the Keyscan Client software. The CA8WL-AL includes a mounting template for drilling holes to mount the unit.
Mounting Guidelines
Unfasten the 2 knurled screw heads on the CA8WL-AL to remove the right-side cover as shown in Figure 2
Use the enclosed mounting template and drill 4 holes where indicated
Fasten the top 2 screws and the lower left screw until there is a gap of approximately 1/32” between each
of the screw heads and the mounting surface
Mount the CA8WL-AL so that the 3 keyway cutouts at the back of the enclosure are over the screw heads
as shown in Figure 3
Slide the enclosure down until the 3 screws are seated at the top of the keyway cutouts
If necessary, remove unit and adjust the screws to have the unit fit tight between the screw heads and
the mounting surface, then slide the enclosure down until the 3 screws are seated at the top of the
keyway cutouts
Fasten and tighten the 4
th
screw in the lower right hole
Leave the right cover off until you have connected the PIM400-485, applied power, and tested the
voltages
