Compatibility and installation notes
- Uses two 12 V batteries, 18 to 200 AH (BAT Series), ordered separately.
- One or two option boards fit in the panel cabinet; further option boards go in remote cabinets.
- For CAB-4 or CAB-5 series backboxes, use the NFS-320SYS instead (DN-60637).
- Optional TR-320 trim ring; with the trim ring, leave at least 1 in. between the wall surface and the front of the backbox so the door can open fully.
- See the Canadian applications manual addendum 52747.
