MobileTouch Wireless Controller User’s and Installation GuideInstalling the MobileTouch TransceiverFor optimum wireless connectivity locate the MobileTouch Transceiver(antenna) near the IntelliTouch load center. The Transceiver optimumwireless transmit and receive range may be affected by physicalobstructions, (especially those containing metal), weather conditions,and geographical features. The MobileTouch controller has anoperating range of up to 300 ft. from the MobileTouch Transceiver. TheTransceiver kit includes a connection cable (10 ft). However, the cablelength can be lengthened up to 300 ft for optimum wireless connectivity.To install the Transceiver:1. Choose an installation location for the Transceiver near theIntelliTouch load center.2. Remove the two lower retaining screws from theTransceiver and slide the Transceiver case up to remove itfrom the back plate.3. Remove the Transceiver circuit board from the back plate bycarefully lifting it up out of the back plate supports. Place thecircuit board on a clean dry surface away from directsunlight.4. Mount the Transceiver back plate (see page 6) onto a flatwooden surface, such as a wooden fence, or post. Whileholding the back plate, install two lower mounting screwsthrough the back plate lower mounting holes. Tighten thescrews to secure the back plate in place. Install two screwsthrough the upper mounting holes.5. Slide the Transceiver circuit board into the back plate into theboard side supports.6. Route the Transceiver cable up through the bottom of theback plate (see page 7) to the screw terminal connector.7. Insert the four wires into the screw terminals of theTransceiver connector. Using a small flat-blade screwdriver,secure the wires with the screws. Make sure to match thecolor coding of the four wires (see page 7 for wiringdiagram).8.
