Flush Mounting Steps
1. Cut a hole in the sheet rock to the following dimensions: 8-1/4” w x 6-5/8” h. If an electrical box is used, the
box must be 1-3/8” back from face of wall to accommodate the annunciator (see Figure 4-11).
2. Remove knockout holes as needed for wires.
3. Fit the annunciator back box into the hole and stabilize with mounting wires. Angle the mounting wires into
the first hole past the sheet rock. Secure the wires behind the screws as shown in Figure 4-12. When all four
wires are in place, the back box should fit snugly into the hole in the sheet rock.
4. After the annunciator wiring to the panel has been completed (described in Section 4.5.2), replace the elec-
tronic assembly in the back box. Place the bezel over the back box and tighten the set screws on the bezel.
