Installation Guidelines

GAI-Tronics’ Emergency Telephones are not designed to be installed in parallel or to be “party-
lined.” Any such installation can cause programming difficulties, premature disconnection of calls, or stations that may not respond when activated. GAI-Tronics highly recommends that one telephone line (PBX extension or CO line) be allocated for each unit.
GAI-Tronics highly recommends that a telephone line surge suppressor be installed to guard against
lightning strikes.
Sealed fittings should be installed at all cable entry points to prevent liquids from entering the unit.

Mounting

GAI-Tronics flush-mount style telephones are equipped with a metal back box that is
not required and should be removed prior to installing the telephone in the surface-mount enclosure.
1. Mount the enclosure on a flat wall surface using the four 5/16-inch (0.312) diameter mounting holes
