Mounting
If you mount the EntryProx unit to a wall, you can install an electrical junction box to hold the unit
and the wires in place. The mounting hole cutouts on the backplate line up with the screw holes on
a standard junction box.
If you mount the EntryProx unit to a glass surface, DO NOT remove the wire exits on the backplate.
Remove the appropriate wire exit cutouts located on each side of the controller keypad case.
CAUTION: If your installation must comply with the UL 294 Standard for Access Control, see
Section 4.3: Controlled Keypad Wiring.

Precautions for Outdoor Installations
Water damage is a key cause of unit malfunction, causing corrosion or short circuits. When
mounting the unit in an area that will be exposed to rain or moisture, take the following
precautionary measures:
1.
Use silicone to seal wire runs and mounting holes (antenna is already sealed).
2.
DO NOT seal the cover and base together. Water that enters the case must be allowed to
run out at the bottom.
3.
Bend the wires to form a drip loop before they enter the case. This will prevent water from
following the wires into the case.
