NOTE: Main power supply and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduits. Conduits must be UL approved for low and high
voltage. Refer to the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70 for additional wiring requirements.
NOTE: Place the CAP2D unit within 500 feet of its associated electronic strike or latch. Monitoring Software is not UL evaluated.
Always provide power from a dedicated source. Plug provided transformer into an outlet wired to its own 10 Amp minimum circuit
breaker. This will prevent two problems:
• Other equipment cannot introduce spikes, noise, surges or dips into the power circuit that will affect the system.
• The system’s operation will not be affected if any other equipment develops a short circuit across the power line.
* CAT 5/6 NETWORK CABLE NOTES:
• For outdoor distances exceeding 140 feet (42.7 m), a UL497 compliant primary surge protector MUST be installed at
the controller.
• Distances exceeding 328 feet (100 m) can be accommodated with additional hardware. Contact Technical Support for more
information. Additional hardware was not evaluated under UL294.
