The Mounting Bracket:
To remove the mounting bracket from the Alarm
base, hold the Alarm base firmly and twist the
mounting bracket counterclockwise. The mounting
bracket installs onto the junction box. It has a
variety of screw slots to fit most boxes.
The Power Connector:
The power connector plugs into a power input block
on the Alarm. It supplies the unit with AC power.
• The black wire is “hot.”
• The white wire is neutral.
• The orange wire is used for interconnect.
If you need to remove the power connector, turn
POWER OFF first. Insert a flat screwdriver blade
between the power connector and the security tab
inside the power input block. Gently pry back the tab
and pull the connector free.
