Mounting Panel Pre-Wiring
For ease of installation, the LITE Series Stanchion can be partially pre-wired on a horizontal surface prior
to mounting. This minimizes the connections that must be made when the stanchion is attached to the
wall. It is also recommended that the appropriate telephone back box be mounted to the stanchion body
at this time. See Telephone Installation on page 11.
Make the rear mounting plate wiring connections between and within the weatherproof boxes. Connect
the wire leads for stanchion lights. Refer to the connection diagram in Figure 2 for components that can
be pre-wired.
NOTE
All connections must be made in accordance with the National Electrical Code
(NEC) in the United States or the Canadian Electrical Codes (CEC) in Canada.
Additionally, if the Model 203-003 Interior Lighting Kit is to be installed, it should be done at the same
time. Refer to the Interior Lighting Kit section on page 5 for installation instructions.
Wire routing is exceptionally important if interior lighting is installed. Wires must be adequately bundled
and anchored so as not to cast shadows on the main stanchion body. Refer to Figure 3 for proper wire
routing and anchoring.
24 V DC Modifications
GAI-Tronics 12 V dc LITE Series Stanchions are preset for 12 V dc power operation. For 24 V dc input
operation, modifications must be made to the stanchion. Modify the stanchion by removing the jumper
(labeled JMPR) located on the upper right side of the relay PCBA within the dc weatherproof box.
Additionally, the locator light must be replaced with a 24 V dc compatible version. Contact GAI-Tronics
Corporation to obtain a 24 V dc version of the locator light. Supply the stanchion with 24 V dc input
power.
