Installation Procedure
Fitting the Control Unit
All of the equipment within the control unit box is mounted on a removable  plate.  It is important
that while the  box is being drilled for cable-entry conduits and being secured to the wall that the
equipment is removed to prevent metal swarf from falling  onto PCBs.
Cable Requirements
Use 0.5mm solid-core twisted-pair telephone cable (BT specification CW1308, or equivalent)
for all telephone and door panel connections; this is essential  for correct operation of the
system and for compliance with European EMC Directive 89/336/EEC. Avoid running any cables
alongside mains or other data transmission wiring.
