Installation

3. Installation

3.1. Wall fastening of outside unit

Install the Mounting plate (as shown in the illustration besides)
directly on the wall. The ideal installation height is at
approximately 135 cm / 52 inches (upper edge). At this height the
fingerprint reader is ergonomically positioned for better reading of the
finger surface as it is being swiped.

The unit can be mounted to a standard electrical outlet using ”In-wall
mounting set“ accessory. The mounting holes are designed to make the
assemblage on a standard electrical outlet possible. Alternatively,
you can work with pins or wooden screws or similar screws directly on
the wall.

The outside unit (splash water resistant) has to be installed in a place, where it is safe from the impact of
heavy rain or snowfall as well as from too strong an incident of solar radiat ion.

3.2. Wall fastening of inside unit

Mount the “fitting plate”, which can be found at the backside of the inside unit. The “fitting plate” at the
same time serves as fastener for the casing of the inside unit. Put up the inside unit onto the fitting plate.

Inside unit can be opened by pushing up the lock clip with a flat screwdriver.
The inside unit has to be installed in a way that it is safe from third party access. Security risk!

Note:

Installation of inside unit shall be exclusively executed by qualified
personnel!

3.3. Electrical connection

The inside unit has to be supplied with electricity; its voltage is 9 VAC. Please use the “9VAC – in”
connecting clamps and only use the power supply provided with your TOCAhome product.

The inside and outside unit have to be connected via a 4-lines wire (bell wire, CAT 5/6, …) with a
minimum line diameter of 0,75mm² (gauge 21) using connection clamps 1-4. In the case of a wire length
of more than 20m the diameter of the wire has to be enlarged and a screened cable has to be used.

1 relay (3 relays with the product ekey TOCAhome 3) is available for controlling external switchgear. The
programming is carried out via the programming menu. The relay is equipped with a change-over contact,
which is freely usable, the maximum switching power is 250V~5A. Each door opener has to be connected
to a dedicated power supply without exception (don’t use the power supply provided with you TOCAhome
product!).

The connection wire between outside and inside unit is to be run separately from electronic house
installations, as they send out signals in the lower voltage area, which can be irritated by other
neighbouring live power cables.

Remark:
The cables are not protected against reversed polarity.

Note:

It is strongly recommended to have the electrical connection done only
by qualified personnel!
