with the wall.
♦ Align the back box with the anchors, insert the 3 screws and tighten with a Phillips
head screwdriver; see Figure 1.

and 9VAC power pack cable to the clock.
♦ Secure the power and communications cable to the back box by inserting supplied
Tie Wrap(s) through the raised strain relief points.
♦ Align the slots on the back of the clock with the tabs on the top of the back box. Plug

Note about the PC400TX
The PC400TX may be located at any point within a TCP/IP Ethernet 10-Base-T network,
as long as the section of cable between the network switch and PC400TX does not go
beyond three hundred and twenty eight (328) wire-feet. A typical topography for the
PC400TX in an Ethernet 10-Base-T network is a star configuration.
NOTE: It is recommended that the PC400TX be plugged into a switch.
