A mounting plate (074-0577-xx) is supplied with the SSC-0012

controller. This mounting plate can be used to mount the controller

to a wall or existing structure.

1. Position the mounting plate onto the wall where the controller

will be located. Position the bracket so the tabs that secure

the controller in the mount, are positioned horizontally.

2. Mark the two mounting holes on the wall.

3. Install wall anchors and screw the mounting plate to the wall.

4. Snap the SSC-0012 controller into the bracket so the tabs on

the mounting bracket seat into the slots on the side of the

controller.
