Chapter 2 Install the Standard Model InTouch
26
Mark the wall
1. Tape the mounting template (or position the base) at the optimal height and
location for the InTouch.
– The top mounting screws must be 46 and 1/2 inches (1181 millimeters)
above the floor, for ADA compliance.
– Use a level to ensure that the top of the template is horizontal to the floor.
Note: If you are replacing a Series 4000 device, you can install the InTouch
on the same area of the wall but you cannot use the same screw holes.
2. If installing over an AC outlet (Standard model only), mark the location for
the installation of that outlet. (If you are replacing a Series 4000 device that
was previously mounted over an AC outlet, you can use that same outlet for
the InTouch, but you need to drill new holes.)
3. Mark the location of the mounting screw holes, as follows
– Installing over an AC outlet: Mark the two top screws to the right of the
knockout plate and the single screw in the bottom middle. (See the
illustration in “Example 1: Mount over an AC outlet” on page 33.)
– Installing near an AC outlet, or with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) or PoE
Plus: Mark the top screw that is on the far left (on the knockout plate), the
top screw on the far right, and the single screw in the bottom middle. (See
the illustration in “Example 2: Mount near an AC outlet or with PoE or
PoE Plus” on page 34.)
4. If you plan to run an Ethernet cable or cable from a remote reader through the
wall to enter the InTouch from the back or through the bottom, use the
template to mark the point of entry. (See the illustrations in “Secure the
Ethernet cable” on page 37.)
5. If you are installing the InTouch near an AC outlet, be sure the outlet is within
5 feet (1.5 meters) of the unit.
6. After you finish marking all entry points, screw holes, etc., remove the
mounting template (or base) from the wall.
