1. The <strong>Knox</strong>-<strong>Box</strong> ® tamper switch is designed to be connected<br />

to an existing building alarm system and should be installed<br />

only by a qualified alarm technician.<br />

2. Remove tamper switch from lock box before mounting lock<br />

box.<br />

3. Position <strong>Knox</strong>-<strong>Box</strong> on wall so wires from alarm panel<br />

protrude into box through hole (A) in back plate. See figures<br />

1, 2, 3, & 4.<br />

4. Bolt <strong>Knox</strong>-<strong>Box</strong> to wall, following directions provided in<br />

mounting instructions.<br />

IMPORTANT: Keep tamper switch hole (B) clear of caulk,<br />

debris or other foreign material, otherwise tamper switch<br />

may not operate.<br />

5. Recessed Mount <strong>Knox</strong>-<strong>Box</strong> uses door tamper switch only,<br />

therefore, the rear tamper switch is omitted. To reinstall<br />

tamper switch assembly: Align tamper switch bracket screw<br />

holes with back plate holes as shown in Figure 1.<br />

6. Connect tamper switch wires to building alarm. Alarm<br />

wiring must be pulled back through the Alarm Wire<br />

Opening (A) and secured tightly so that if box is removed,<br />

wires will be broken in the process, thereby causing alarm<br />

activation.<br />

7. Surface Mount <strong>Knox</strong>-<strong>Box</strong>: Align rear tamper switch plunger<br />

in back plate, hole (B), as shown in figure 1. Check length<br />

of plunger and, if necessary, adjust plunger screw to give<br />

proper travel. Check plunger contact by GENTLY pressing<br />

the bracket flush against the back plate. CAUTION: If the rear<br />

tamper switch adjustment screw protrudes too far, the rear<br />

tamper switch may break when bracket is tightened. Use of<br />

an ohm meter is recommended to assure that switch trips<br />

(0 ohms – for red/green wires, open for yellow wires) when<br />

bracket is GENTLY pushed flush against the back plate.<br />

8. Secure bracket to back plate with screws provided. Do not<br />

allow wires to go behind mounting bracket, or between<br />

mounting bracket and box sidewall.<br />

9. Connect tamper switch wires to building alarm. Alarm<br />

wiring must be feed back through Alarm Wire Opening (A)<br />

to prevent interference with the lock mechanism.<br />
