Section 4 covers general installation guidelines, current draw requirements, circuit wiring, and dip switch settings.

AC Connection

Before installing the 5499, the AC input must first be wired into the building's main electrical power through TB1 terminals. Shut off the electrical power to the 5499, and then complete the general installation of the 5499 using the information in this section.

120 VAC Connection

Mounting

Mount the 5499 in locations that meet the following temperature and humidity requirements. Like the vast majority of electronic equipment, do not expose the 5499 panel to conditions outside of these ranges.

Temperature 0°C - 49°C (32°F - 120°F)
Humidity 10% - 85% at 30°C (86°F) noncondensing

When mounting on interior walls, use appropriate screw anchors in plaster. When mounting on concrete, especially when moisture is expected, first attach a piece of 3/4-inch plywood to the concrete surface. Attach the 5499 to the plywood.

Wire Routing

To avoid induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another), keep input wiring isolated from high current output and power-limited wiring. Induced noise can interfere with telephone communication or even cause false alarms. Avoid pulling one multiconductor cable for the entire system. Instead, separate high current input/output from low current. Separate power-limited from non-power-limited wiring. Non-power-limited wiring must be enclosed in conduit.

Wiring within the cabinet should be routed around the perimeter of the cabinet. It should not cross the printed circuit board where it could induce noise into the sensitive microelectronics or pick up unwanted RF noise from the switching power supply circuit.
