To properly mount and wire your Synergy SQRS2S Remote Station, please follow these steps:
Mounting Instructions:
Install a 2-inch wide single-gang masonry box (like RACO #690 or Steel City #GW125C) or a square corner ring (RACO #782) at your chosen location. The remote station frame needs to be mounted to a grounded back box, or you'll need to add a separate ground conductor. If you're cutting into an existing wall, avoid using "F clips." Instead, use a 2-inch wide box equivalent to Caddy MPLS to prevent the circuit board from shorting to the box.
Wiring Instructions:
Connect the remote station to a single Sequel Series Control Station (SQCS, SQMPCS, SQIDC) or a single Remote Station Interface (SQRSI, SQMPRSI). You'll need to use three Class 2 #18 AWG conductors for this connection. If the total cable length exceeds 250 feet (80 meters), add a spare conductor to the run. Remotes with the same function can be wired in a daisy chain or home run configuration and connected under the same terminal at the control station or interface.
Additional Notes:
Always refer to the wiring diagrams in your Synergy SQRS2S manual for detailed wiring specifics. Use only Class 2 low-voltage individual #18 AWG wires or a multiconductor cable such as Belden 83653 or 83662 shielded, low capacitance control cable for longer runs. Make sure you establish proper grounding and adhere to all safety precautions outlined in the manual. Following these instructions will help ensure a safe and effective installation of your Synergy SQRS2S Remote Station.
