Step 2 – Switch Installation
For safe switch installation and operation, it is
recommended that you:
• Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and
adequate ventilation around the switch.
• Do not place heavy objects on the switch
Desktop or Shelf Installation
When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the
rubber feet included with the device must be attached
on the bottom at each corner of the device’s base. Allow
enough ventilation space between the device and the
objects around it.
Wall Mount Installation
The switch can also be mounted on a wall. Two mounting
slots are provided on the bottom of the switch for this
purpose.
•
Mounting on a concrete wall
1. Fix the nylon screw anchors into the concrete wall.
2. Drive the included screws into the nylon screw anchors.
3. Hook the switch with the mounting holes on the bottom
onto the screws.
•
Mounting on a wooden wall

the switch.
Required tools and equipment for grounding
•
Grounding screw (included) and one M4x6
(metric) pan-head screw (not included).

cable should be sized according to local and
national installation requirements. Depending
on the power supply and system, a 12 to 6 AWG
copper conductor is required for installation.
Commercially available 6 AWG wire is
recommended. The length of the cable depends
on the proximity of the switch to proper
grounding facilities.
•
A screwdriver (not included).
1.
Verify that the system is powered off
2. Remove the grounding screw from the back of
the device and place the #8 terminal lug ring of
the grounding cable on top of the grounding
screw opening.
3. Insert the grounding screw back into the screw
opening and use a screwdriver to tighten the
grounding screw.
4. Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end
of the grounding cable to an appropriate
grounding source.
5. Verify that the connection between the
grounding connector on the switch and the
grounding source is secure.
