Installation
4.1  Location Information
A location should be selected that is centrally located between the 1100 Series transmitters used in the 
installation. Place the EM20 away from metal objects. Placing the EM20 on or near metal surfaces impairs
performance. 
Primary Power Supply
5.1  AC Power Supply
1.   Unpack the 16.5VAC power supply and fully unroll the cord.
2.   Connect the power supply to the Red RJ22 connection on the back of the EM20.
3.  Connect  the  power  supply  to  a  120VAC  outlet  not  controlled  by  a  switch  and
secure with the screw provided.
Secondary Power Supply
6.1  Standby Battery
Install the Battery
Observe polarity when connecting battery. Ensure the 
battery harness connectors are fully inserted to prevent 
shorting.
1.  Turn the EM20 over and remove battery cover.
2.   The new battery comes with the harness pre-installed.
3.  Connect  the  new  battery  harness  to  the  locking  4-pin  header
battery connector inside the battery compartment. Because the 
header is keyed, it can only be installed in one direction.
4.   Re-install the battery cover and turn the EM20 upright.
6.2  Battery Supervision
The EM20 tests the battery once every hour when AC power is present.
This test occurs 15 minutes past each hour and lasts for five seconds.
A load is placed on the battery and if the battery voltage falls below 
11.9V, a low battery is detected. If DC power has failed, a low battery is
detected any time the battery voltage falls below 11.9V.
