MOUNTING THE KEYPAD
Keypad Location
• The MRC88 Keypad should be mounted in a convenient location, typically
near the entrance to a room where other room controls such as light switches
are located.
NOTE: Some light dimmers can interfere with the Keypad and IR Sensor. Test
compatibility prior to determining mounting location.
• Do not mount the Keypads in locations that will be exposed to sunlight or
bright artificial light. Bright light sources can interfere with the IR Sensor on the
Keypad, preventing use of remote controls. Cumulative light noise can
interfere with system and source control from other zones as well.
To mount the Keypad, use a plastic, dual-gang, new construction or retro fit J-
box and the included MRC88 Keypad Mounting Bracket as shown in Figure 3.
NOTE: Do not mount the Keypad in the same box with high voltage (AC)
devices. This can interfere with system performance and is a violation of
building/electrical code in most places.
