Installation Outline
Use the following outline in conjuncon with this Installaon and Programming Guide to guide you through the installaon steps.
1. Unpack the system and idenfy the system components.
2. Create an Installaon Floor Plan to determine the best centralized locaon for the Control Panel.
3. Decide where to best install the wired and/or wireless sensors. Guidelines are available in the Installaon Instrucons included
with each sensor.
4. Idenfy an unswitched wall outlet to use for the Control Panel’s power supply.
5. (Oponal) Install the LTE (Cellular) Radio Module in the Control Panel. See “LTE (Cellular) Radio Module” on page 15.
6. Use the Control Panel’s backplate to mark the drywall cutouts for the Control Panel. Then make the cutouts and aach the
backplate to the wall. See “Control Panel Mounng Plate” on page 13.
7. Install each of the system’s wireless sensors. If the hardware zone is used, install the contacts and route the loop wire to the
Control Panel’s wall cutout.
8. Install the oponal hardwired sounder, and route the connecon wire to the Control Panel’s wall cutout.
9. Use the third-hand hanger strap to hang the Control Panel on the mounng plate. Then connect all wiring to the Control
Panel’s terminal block. See “Control Panel Wiring” on page 17 and “Terminal Block Wiring Diagram” on page 17.
10. Plug the backup baery connector into the connector on the circuit board.
11. Swing the Control Panel up, placing the boom over the lip of the mounng bracket. Push the top of the Control Panel into the
mounng bracket unl it snaps into place, then secure it with the retaining screw.
12. Plug the power supply into the unswitched wall outlet.
13. Program the system as described in this manual and document any custom setup opons for the end user in the space
provided in the User Guide.
14. Test the system as described “Installer Tesng” on page 61.
15. Educate the end user(s) about basic system operaons and provide them with the Control Panel’s User Guide.
