Power Requirements
 120V AC, 1.0 amp
A dedicated 120V AC, 15-amp
circuit with emergency backup is
recommended.
 Each Controller comes with a
grounded 6-foot power cord for
ease of installation.
 A three-prong 120-Volt outlet with
emergency back up should be
located within 6 feet of each
Controller.
Temperature
The Controller and its associated peripherals
operate best in an ambient temperature
between 35 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Operation outside of this range may cause
unexpected or undesirable results, including
premature component or device failure.
Weight
The Controller weighs approximately 13
U.S. pounds, which should be considered
when choosing mounting location and
hardware.
Location
The recommended location of the Controller
is out of sight above a drop ceiling near the
monitored zone. If it is not possible to
mount the Controller out of sight, place the
Controller high on the wall.
By default, the Controller is factory
configured to use an internally mounted
zone Receiver. However, if desired, a
remote mounting system can be used to
mount the Receiver at the zone allowing the
Controller to be mounted in a utility closet
or other concealed location.
