Remove appropriate knockouts for cables. Place the control panel at a convenient viewing heightand mark the mounting holes. Attach the enclosure using screws suitable for the mounting surface.GroundingConnect the control-panel grounding screw to a metal cold-water pipe or a long steel (or copper) ground rod drivendeeply into the earth. Do not use a gas pipe, plastic pipe or AC ground connections. Use at least 16-gauge wire.Make the run as short and direct as possible, without any sharp bends in the wire.KeypadA keypad should be located near each exit/entry door. The keypad features a handy pull-up reference label.Before mounting the keypad onto the wall, push the Sliding Label Plate (with label and felt backing affixed andhandle facing forward) down the guides at the rear of the keypad until it snaps into place. Once installed, theSliding Label Plate cannot be removed without first removing the keypad from the wall. Note: (1) The keypad fireand panic keys should not be considered a substitute for a listed manual initiating device, such as a pull box. (2)Each GEM-RP1CAe2 includes provisions for four additional zones. See ADDING EXPANSION ZONES.If installing onto a double-gang box, insert mounting screws through the two vertical elongated holes on the leftside of the case and into the box. If the box is visible when viewed from the front, adjust the keypad vertically andtighten the screws. Then, using hardware suitable for the mounting surface, add one or two screws at the rightside of the keypad case directly into the wall to ensure a secure installation. Note: Do not overtighten the screws!Uneven walls may cause the keypad case to distort.CAUTION: This equipment generates and uses radio-frequency energy.
