Installation

Step 1: Wall-mounting Box or Flush-mounting Box Installation

1.1 With 86x86 mm embedded junction box in the wall

1. Fix the wall-mounting box onto the embedded box using two M4x30 Screws. Mark the positions of the four holes of the wall mounting box at the hole center.
2. Take off the box and drill the four marked holes using a 5 mm drill bit by hand drill before inserting the plastic wall anchors into the drilled holes.
3. Place the wall mounting box closely against the wall, lining up its four holes with their corresponding drilled holes, and then fix the wall mounting box on the wall by tightening the four ST4 x 20 screws and two M4x30 screws into the plastic wall anchors.

1.2 Without embedded junction box in the wall

1. According to the position of the wire on the wall, place the wall-mounting box closely onto the wall and mark the four positioning holes, while making sure that relative positions between the wall-mounting box and wiring hole are correct.
2. Drill the marked holes using a 5 mm drill bit by hand drill before inserting plastic wall anchors into the drilled holes.
3. Place the wall-mounting box closely against the wall while lining up its four holes with their corresponding drilled holes and then fix the wall-mounting box on the wall by tightening four ST x 20 screws and two M4x30 screws into the plastic wall anchors.

2. Flush-Mounting

1. Cut out a square hole with the dimensions (height*width*depth = 337*122*57 mm).
2. Insert the flush-mounting box into the hole and mark the positions of the four holes of the flush-mounting box on the wall. Then take off the box and drill the holes on the marked positions using a 5 mm drill bit by hand drill before inserting the plastic anchors into the drilled holes.
3. Break off the round knock-out wiring holes and lead the wires through the corresponding hole into the flush-mounting box, then press the flush-mounting box into the square hole. The upper and lower folded edges of the flush-mounting box must fit snugly against the wall. Then fix the box using the four plastic wall anchors and the four ST4x20 screws.
4. Make sure that the flush-mounting box is well tightened and its upper and lower folded edges fit snugly against the wall. Fill in the gap between the wall and the flush-mounting box using cement or non-corrosive structural adhesive and wait until the cement has hardened before proceeding to the next step.

STEP 2: Back cover Installation

1. Hang one end of the rope on to the square hanger on the wall-mounting/flush-mounting box, then hang the other end of the rope on to the square hook on the device for the convenience of later wire installation, etc.
2. Connect the wires to the terminal blocks as needed (for details, refer to "Device Wiring"), then insert the terminal blocks into the corresponding interface of the main board as indicated in the drawing according to the number of PIN.
3. Choose a suitable size rubber plug (small, large, and medium) to hold down the wires, while tearing off the adhesive sticker on the selected rubber plug and sticking it onto the X915 back cover. Then tear off the adhesive sticker on the other rubber plug of the same size and stick it onto the back cover in the position as indicated in the drawing.
4. Press the X915 back cover silicone rubber sealing ring into the corresponding groove as indicated by the arrow, and then tighten the back cover using the six M3x4 screws to its corresponding holes.

STEP 3: Device Mounting

1. Take off the rope and hang the device onto the two square hangers on the wall-mounting/flush-mounting box. Stick the plate removal key into the small hole on the upper left corner of the card reader touch plate to pull out the plate.
2. Drive the two Torx screws into their corresponding holes.
3. Press the card reader touch plate into the card reader opening.
4. Installation is completed.

Warning: When connecting a device containing a coil, such as a relay or an electromagnetic lock, it is necessary to protect the intercom against voltage peaks while switching off the induction load. Akuvox recommends using a diode (1A/200V, included in accessories) connected antiparallel to the device for protection.
