CHAPTER 3 | INSTALLATION
MOUNTING OPTIONS
The RK3-V has integrated mounting wings for retrot installation in new
or existing construction. Additionally, the RK3-V can be directly attached
to certain walls (wood, etc.) using screws. An optional drywall rough-in
bracket (RTI part #: 40-210294-22) and preconstruction back box
(RTI part #: 30-210153-15) is available for conveniently locating the
RK3-V in new construction installations.
WIRING CONNECTION OPTIONS
The RK3-V can be wired either from the Control Port or the Removable
Terminal Block. A minimum of 3-conductor wire is required for basic
operation (+16VDC, GND, and IR DATA). CAT5 cable can be used to
power the RK3-V up to 1000 feet (300m) if a full wire pair is used for both
+16VDC and GND. For longer distances use the following size of unshielded
multi-conductor cable:
Wire Size Distance
20 AWG 1300’ (400m)
18 AWG 2000’ (600m)
NOTE: The IR Data connection does not need to be connected if the RK3-V
will be using an Ethernet connection for control.
