Installation Details
The AEDBHR can be mounted inside the Alarm Engine enclosure on either side of the Alarm Engine board using the supplied ELK-SWG Circuit Board Glides. If all the mounting locations are consumed, an additional ELK-SWB14 or ELK-SWB28 enclosure may be installed.
The ELK-SWG Circuit Board Glides attach to the enclosure at strategically placed 2-hole punch patterns. Note that one hole in each pattern is slightly larger than the other. The small hole is for a 6/32 type "F" mounting screw and the large hole is for a half-moon shaped locator tab on the bottom of each glide.
