Mounting 

 

Internal Signs 

 

 

Remove  Cover  and 
Internal circuit board. 
 
Mount  using  suitable 
fixings. 
 
Select cable entry point 
and prepare. 
 
Leave  enough  tail  on 

cable  to  ensure  the 
cable  will  not  interfere 
with operation of sign.

 

 

Weatherproof - External Signs 

 

 

Mount Sunshade. 
 
Remove  cover  and  Internal 
circuit board 
 
Mount using suitable fixings 
 
ONLY  Mount  to  sunshade 

surface 

  if  the  enclosure  is 

twisted on mounting it will crack 
over time. 
 
Best practice is to use silicon for 
securing the lower half of sign. 
 
Select  cable  entry  point  and 

prepare.  Cable entry must have 
cable  gland  fitted.    Preferred 

entry  though  base  of  sign  with 
drip loop in cable. 
 
Leave  enough  tail  on  cable  to 

ensure  the  cable  will  not 
interfere with operation of sign.
