ENTRY SYSTEM MOUNTING
Pedestal Mounting
The RE-1 Entry System can be mounted on a standard pedestal.
1. Open the RE-1 case by removing the two security screws with the
wrench provided (see Figure 2).
2. Use four security bolts and locking nuts to secure the backplate to the
pedestal (see Figure 3).
Wall Mounting
The RE-1 Entry System can be mounted directly to a wall or fl at
surface.
1. Open the RE-1 case by removing the two security screws with the
wrench provided (see Figure 2).
2. Use the appropriate fasteners to secure the system’s backplate to the
mounting surface. When mounting the system to a concrete wall, use
concrete wedge anchors (see Figure 4).
TELEPHONE WIRING
The RE-1 connects between the incoming telephone line of the
residence and local telephone sets.
Telephone Bypass Module
The RE-1’s Telephone Bypass Module provides surge protection and
a switch to remove the RE-1 from the telephone line and re-connect
the local telephones to the telephone system. ALL TELEPHONE
WIRING FOR THE RE-1 MUST PASS THROUGH THE BYPASS
MODULE.
The bypass module is housed in a weather-resistant enclosure and
should be located in an area that is easily accessible to the resident.
In case of system trouble, the resident can use the bypass switch to
remove the RE-1 from the telephone system.
Telephone Wiring
• DO NOT ROUTE TELEPHONE AND AC WIRING INSIDE THE SAME
CONDUIT. Route all telephone wires inside a dedicated conduit that is
at least six inches away from any AC line wiring.
• All telephone wiring must be made on the “house” side of the telephone
company’s demarcation device (the terminal block where the telephone
line connects to the residence).
• If any security system or personal alert system at the residence is
connected to the telephone line, be sure that it is connected to the line
ahead of the Telephone Bypass Module using a RJ-31X or RJ-38X
interface.
• Use only high-quality telephone wire rated for direct underground
burial. All telephone wire should be twisted-pair with a minimum size of
24 AWG.
Typical Telephone Wiring
1. Connect the bypass module’s EARTH GROUND terminal to a good
earth ground.
2. Before connecting the incoming telephone line to the bypass module
check the polarity of the wires with a DC voltmeter. Connect the
negative wire (RING - usually green) to the bypass module TELCO
RING terminal. Connect the positive wire (TIP - usually red) to the
bypass module TELCO TIP terminal.
3. Connect the resident’s local telephone line RING (usually green) to
the bypass module HOUSE RING. Connect the local telephone line
TIP (usually red) to the bypass module HOUSE TIP terminal.
4. Connect the RE-1 TELCO RING to the bypass module RE-1 TELCO
RING terminal. Connect the RE-1 TELCO TIP to the bypass module
RE-1 TELCO TIP terminal.
5. Connect the RE-1 HOUSE RING to the bypass module RE-1 HOUSE
RING terminal. Connect the RE-1 HOUSE TIP to the bypass module
RE-1 HOUSE TIP terminal.
