Installation process

  1. If you are going to use an external power supply (12 V), drill a hole for the wire in SmartBracket. Before installation, make sure that the wire insulation is not damaged.
Information icon

You need to drill a hole in the mounting panel to lead out the external power supply wire.

  1. Fix SmartBracket to the surface with bundled screws. If using any other attaching hardware, make sure that they do not damage or deform the panel.

Warning icon

Using the double-sided adhesive tape is not recommended either for a temporary nor permanent fixing.

  1. Put StreetSiren on the SmartBracket panel and turn it clockwise. Fix the device with a screw. Fixing the siren to the panel with a screw makes it difficult for intruders to remove the device quickly.

Do not install the siren:

  1. Near any metal objects and mirrors (these can interfere with the RF signal and cause it to fade);
  2. In areas were the devices sound can be muffled;
  3. Closer than 1 meter from the Ajax hub.
