wall MoUnT insTallaTion
The IMS-4000 Node can be wall mounted using the optional wall mount brackets. Follow the steps below:
1) Attach the optional wall mount brackets to the sides of the IMS-4000 using the eight black #6-32 screws. A Phillips
screwdriver will be required. (Order part # IMS-4406 Universal Wall Mount Kit)
2) Attach the unit to the wall using two screws per side. Tighten the screws with a Phillips screwdriver.
3) Plug the power cord into a 120VAC 60Hz outlet.
NOTE: An international version is available for 220V 50/60Hz operation. (Order part # IMS-4003.)

TableTop insTallaTion
The IMS-4000 Node can be installed on a tabletop or shelf. Follow the steps below:
1) Attach the four self-adhesive rubber feet to the four corners on the bottom of the IMS-4000.
2) Place the unit on a tabletop or shelf and connect the power cord into a 120VAC 60Hz outlet.

The IMS-4000 Node has eight sensor inputs. Each input can accept any sensor type. Sensors are available to monitor the fol-

All IMS-4000 sensors connect to the Node using standard RJ-45 cables. This makes it easy to connect sensors directly to the
unit. Simply plug one end of the cable into the sensor and the other end into one of the sensor inputs on the Node.
Another benefit of using RJ-45 connectors is that you can easily locate sensors at distant locations within your facility by
using your existing structured cabling. For example: Suppose you have an IMS-4000 Node installed in room A and you
want to install a sensor in room B. If your existing cabling infrastructure has an unused cable path between room A and
room B, then you simply use an RJ-45 interconnect cable to connect the IMS-4000 Node to the patch panel in room A, and
an RJ-45 interconnect cable from the wall jack in room B to the sensor.
Note: The sensor produces an analog signal which must connect directly to the Host or Node. The path from
the sensor to the IMS unit CANNOT pass through a network Hub or Switch.
