The Protective Enclosure is not intended for use in outdoor locations directly exposed to the elements. For information on a time clock designed for outdoor environments, please contact your UKG representative.

Install the TouchBase Gen6 Protective Enclosure

To install the UKG ProTouchBase Gen6 Protective Enclosure, you need the following tools and hardware:

  • A screwdriver
  • A drill with the correct drill bit
  • Screws and anchors, depending on the mounting surface
  • A utility knife
  • A level

  1. Verify that the enclosure kit includes the following components:
    • 1x protective enclosure front panel
    • 1x protective enclosure body
    • 1x lockless clock mounting backplate
    • 1x rubber grommet
    • 10x M4 front fixing screws

  2. Use one of the following methods to route the cables:
    • Route the cables from the back or wall entry (recommended). To access the back or wall, pop out the rear breakout tab. Fit a rubber grommet to the hole once it has been punctured for cable ingress.Rubber Grommet
    • Route the cables from the bottom of the enclosure body. Break or cut one or more of the plastic tabs on the bottom of the front panel (labeled A in the following image). Then, puncture the corresponding grommets (labeled B in the following image) for cable ingress.Route Cables from Bottom
  3. Mount the enclosure using a VESA standard mount or by directly mounting to a wall.
    Note To use a VESA standard mount, refer to the instructions provided with your VESA mounting adapter (not provided by UKG).VESA Shared Mount

    To mount directly to the wall, use the following steps:

    Wall Mount
    1. Feed any Ethernet cables, DC cables, or relay signals through the rear grommet on the wall where the enclosure will be mounted.
    2. Using a level, mark the four corner mounting points on the wall and drill pilot holes. Depending on your mounting surface, you may need to install additional mounting hardware such as drywall anchors.

    3. Pull the cables through the cutout on the enclosure and the smaller backplate. Seal the grommet into place.

    4. Align the enclosure and tighten the four screws until the unit is firmly in place.
      Note The inner backplate does not have a locking mechanism. The front panel seals the unit inside.Inner Backplate
  4. Optionally, mount the relay module to the backplate. Refer to the Relay Module Field Installation Instructions guide for more information about wiring and installing the relay module.

  5. Plug power or Ethernet cables into the back of the terminal. The unit should turn on and remain on during installation. If the unit does not turn on, diagnose the problem before continuing installation.
  6. Align the terminal’s top edge with the enclosure’s top inner edge at a 45-degree angle. Rotate into position as you would with fitting the standard unit to the standard back box.
    Once seated in place, the terminal should fit with the touch screen parallel to the front enclosure.

  7. Align the front panel’s bottom tongue with the enclosure’s bottom grooves on both sides.

  8. Align the front panel’s top tongue with the enclosure’s top groove. Once aligned, slide the front panel fully back.
    Align Top
  9. Ensure that there are no gaps in the assembly. The front panel should slide back fully so that it is flush with the leading edge of the enclosure body. The top and bottom edges should fully seal the top and bottom of the enclosure.
  10. Fit the ten M4 front fixing screws into the countersunk holes. Partially tighten the screws using low torque in a diagonal pattern across the front.

  11. Tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern until tight. Do not over-tighten. The front glass is sealed. The terminal can now be used.
