INSTALLATION & CONNECTIONS

-51-

Installation

The unit meets NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements for indoor

use, when properly installed. The units are intended to be
mounted into an enclosed panel with a gasket to provide a
water-tight seal. Two mounting clips and screws are
provided for easy installation. Consideration should be
given to the thickness of the panel. A panel that is too thin
may distort and not provide a water-tight seal, therefore the
recommended minimum panel thickness is 1/8" (3.2 mm).
The recommended clearance behind the panel for mounting
clip installation is 3.0" (6.45 cm) H x 4.0" (10.16 cm) W.

After the panel cut-out is completed and deburred,

carefully apply the gasket to the panel. DO NOT APPLY
THE ADHESIVE SIDE OF THE GASKET TO THE
BEZEL. Insert the unit into the panel as depicted in the
drawing. Thread the screws into the clips until the pointed
end just protrudes through the other side. Install each
mounting clip by inserting the case tabs of the clip into the
holes, located on either side of the bezel.

Then snap the rear end of the clip into the case and slide

the clip towards the rear of the unit, locking it in place.
Tighten the screws evenly to apply uniform compression,
thus providing a water-tight seal.

Caution: Only minimum pressure is required to seal panel.

Do NOT over tighten screws.

Installation Environment

Before installing the Legend Plus into the panel, the user should first

become familiar with the unit. Also, it may be desirable to program the unit
and set the appropriate DIP switches for the application. When programming
is complete, all parameters will be saved in nonvolatile memory. The Program
Disable DIP switch used with an external User Input, programmed for the
program disable function, provides various levels of security to prevent
accidental or unauthorized programming changes. The Legend Plus should be
installed in a location that does NOT exceed the maximum operating

temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near devices
that generate excessive heat should be avoided.

The bezel should be cleaned only with a soft cloth and neutral soap

product. Do NOT use solvents. Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may
accelerate the aging process of the bezel.

Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) to operate

the keypad of the unit.
