Attaching a Companion base station
Install base stations on a wall or on a ceiling. When installing base stations on a wall, install them
with their covers at the bottom, as shown in the figure below. Allow for clearances around the base
station as indicated in the following table.
Installing the base station
1 Fasten the bracket into position using two #8 38-mm (1-1/2 in.) screws.
2 Route the cable from the BCM1000 through the top or bottom opening.
3 Wind any excess cable around the posts, then fasten the cable under the strain relief.
4 Connect the wires to the BIX connector on the bracket termination board as shown in
the following figure.
Figure 9 Bracket termination board
The polarity of the TCM connections is not important. If you connect the two power pairs to
the bracket terminal board of the base station, you must connect the power pairs with the same
polarity.
CAUTION: Ensure that the RPI is off before connecting power pairs to the base station.
5 Install the base station on the bracket. Snap it into position.
6 Connect the power RJ-11 jumper lead to the RJ-11 jacks on the termination board and
the base station.
