ADM800 - Installation Considerations 

Overview 

Up to four AGM300 monitors may be connected to a single ADM800 display module. The ADM800 can be 
located anywhere up to 4500 feet from the furthest AGM300. The display module should be installed out of 
direct sunlight in a clean area that is not subject to temperature or humidity extremes. 

Warnings and Cautions 

WARNING 

Drilling holes in the AGM300 and 

ADM800  enclosure will void the warranty.

  Please 

use knockouts provided for electrical connections. 

WARNING - 

Do not operate this equipment in the 

presence of flammable liquids, vapors or aerosols. 
Operation of any electrical instrument in such an 
environment constitutes a safety hazard. 

WARNING 

- Electrical installation should be 

performed by a certified electrician and should comply 
with all applicable local, state, and federal electrical 
safety codes.  

WARNING 

- Always de-energize the power supply 

before working on the interior of the instrument. 

CAUTION

 - The ADM800 contains sensitive 

electronic components that can be easily damaged. 
Be careful not to touch or disturb any of these 
components. 

 

Inspection 

The ADM800 has been thoroughly inspected and tested prior to shipment from the factory. Nevertheless, it is 
recommended that the instrument be re-checked prior to installation. Inspect the outside of the enclosure to 
make sure there are no obvious signs of shipping damage. Loosen the four screws on the sides of the 
enclosure and remove the front panel. Visually inspect the interior of the display for loose components that may 
have become dislodged during shipment. If damage is discovered, please contact the nearest Bacharach 
Service Center for assistance.
