3. Setup and Installation
Installation of the Fermax 6565 Mounting Plate requires basic electrical and DIY skills. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about any steps.
Safety Precautions:
- Always disconnect power to the intercom system before beginning any installation work.
- Ensure all wiring complies with local electrical codes and regulations.
- Do not expose the product to moisture or extreme temperatures.
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Installation Area: Choose a suitable location on the wall for the monitor, ensuring it is at an appropriate height and has access to the necessary wiring.
- Mark Drilling Points: Hold the mounting plate against the wall at the desired position. Use a pencil to mark the locations for the mounting screws through the designated holes on the plate.
- Drill Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked points. Use appropriate drill bits and wall plugs (not included) suitable for your wall material (e.g., plasterboard, concrete).
- Mount the Plate: Secure the Fermax 6565 Mounting Plate to the wall using screws (not included) that are compatible with your wall plugs. Ensure the plate is level and firmly attached.
- Connect Wiring: Route the intercom system's wiring through the opening in the mounting plate. Connect the wires to the green terminal blocks on the plate according to the wiring diagram provided with your Fermax Smile monitor. Pay close attention to polarity and correct terminal assignments (e.g., VDS bus, power, audio, video).
- Attach the Monitor: Once wiring is complete and secure, carefully align the Fermax Smile monitor with the mounting plate. Gently push the monitor onto the plate until it clicks into place, ensuring all connections are firm.
- Restore Power: Reconnect power to the intercom system and test the functionality of the monitor.
4. Operating Instructions
The Fermax 6565 Mounting Plate is a passive component designed for physical mounting and electrical connection. It does not have any operational controls or functions itself. All operational aspects are managed through the connected Fermax Smile monitor and the overall intercom system.
5. Maintenance
The Fermax 6565 Mounting Plate requires minimal maintenance. Periodically, you may:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface of the plate with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Connection Check: If you experience issues with your intercom system, ensure the monitor is securely seated on the mounting plate and that all wiring connections are tight.
6. Troubleshooting
As a passive component, the mounting plate itself rarely causes issues. Most problems will stem from the monitor or the intercom system. However, consider the following if issues arise:
- Monitor Not Powering On:
- Check if power to the intercom system is restored.
- Ensure all wires are correctly connected to the terminal blocks on the mounting plate and are securely fastened.
- Verify that the Fermax Smile monitor is properly seated on the mounting plate.
- Loose Monitor:
- Ensure the mounting plate is firmly secured to the wall. Tighten screws if necessary.
- Verify the monitor is correctly engaged with the plate's locking mechanisms.
For further troubleshooting, refer to the user manual of your Fermax Smile monitor or contact Fermax customer support.
