Installation
The Unit is for desktop or wall mounting. The optionally available wall mounting frame (Part
No. 7100.PGT100.101) can be used to fix the unit to a wall.
The power is either supplied by a 9V battery or by a power supply. Insert the batteries by
opening the battery compartment flap on the bottom side of the unit. Take care of the proper
polarity. Close the battery compartment flap again.
It is strongly recommended to remove old or empty batteries to avoid battery
leakage.
For heavy use or footwear in series mode, we recommend using the external power supply.
Use only an original power supply connected to the "AC12V" socket on the rear. On plugging
in external power, the internal battery is disconnected.
The battery should be removed to avoid wear out.
Do not connect any conducting articles with PGT120 except original accessories (power
supply, battery and foot wear electrode) and the door opener.
Connect the foot electrode with the coloured marked plugs to the back of the unit for
footwear test.
