Optional devices
If you plan to connect certain optional devices to the InTouch, follow the step-by-
step instructions in this guide and the corresponding installation guide that is
included with each option kit. Note the following:
• Some optional devices (remote readers, for example) must be mounted within
a certain number of feet (or meters) of the InTouch.
• The optional devices have components and cables that must be attached to the
InTouch in a certain order during specific stages of the installation.
• Some optional devices are compatible with the Standard model only, Slim
Profile model only, or both models. Other options require the installation of
the transition board option. Some options support Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
or PoE Plus; others do not. See the following table for currently supported
options and configurations. See the release notes for changes to this
information.
