Mounting the unit to an AAS Gooseneck Pedestal (18-001)
or double height Gooseneck (18-003).
Locate the four carriage bolts and four hex nuts found inside the shipping box. With the keypad face open, place
the unit against the pedestal flange, insert the four carriage bolts from the back of the unit and tighten the hex
nutsfrom the inside. Wrench-tighten the hex nuts securely. Do not over tighten.
Installation Steps
8. NOTE: MAKE ALL WIRING CONNECTIONS BEFORE TURNING ON THE POWER. (Refer to the Connection Schematics)
A 12VAC adapter is included to power the PhoneLink gate unit. Use 12 AWG stranded wire between the 12VAC
adapter and the POWER terminal block on the PhoneLink gate unit.
9. For a solar power installation, connect 18 AWG stranded wire between the battery and the POWER terminal block
on the PhoneLink gate unit.
10. For gate activation, connect the gate control wires to Relay A, common and normally open. Use stranded wire of
the gauge recommended by the gate operator manufacturer.
11. Wire secondary equipment (such as a pedestrian gate) to Relay B.
Wiring the Station
12. The PhoneLink is designed to go inline with the incoming phone line (See page 9). At the Telephone Company
(Telco) box on the side of the building, disconnect the connections between the phone company and the house.
13. Run 4 conductor 22 AWG twisted shielded wires between the Telco box and the PhoneLink unit. Connect two
wires between the Telco box phone company tip and ring, to the “FROM CO” terminal block on the PhoneLink unit.
14. Connect the other two wires at the Telco box to the terminals going into the house phones, and the other end of
the two wires to the “TO PHONES” terminal block on the PhoneLink unit. Note: On the PhoneLink unit circuit board is a
manual bypass switch that can be used to disconnect the PhoneLink unit from the telephone line.
15. The PhoneLink can also be installed to a PBX or Key phone system. Connect two wires from an UNUSED CO (line)
port of the PBX system to the “To Phones” terminal block on the PhoneLink circuit board. Then move jumper from
Normal to PBX then press and release the SETUP button on the circuit board (refer to Page 11.)
16. When all of the connections are complete, and before you complete the “hard install”, refer to the Operating
Section of this Manual (starting on page 12) and check that the system is working properly.
