Honeywell N6277V1
Cam Lock and Key for VISTA Control Panel
Description
The Honeywell N6277V1 is the Cam Lock and Key for the VISTA Series Alarm Panels. The lock prevents others from opening the panel's metal enclosure and tampering with the system. The panel and metal enclosure should be hidden away. Buy the Honeywell N6277V1 Cam Lock and Key from Alarm Grid.
Every VISTA alarm panel comes from the factory with a hardware packet. Inside the hardware packet are various items necessary for the complete installation of the system. Each VISTA panel comes with a cam lock, which should be used to secure the metal enclosure lid to the main enclosure.
Some installers choose not to install the cam lock, opting instead for securing the lid to the enclosure with one or more screws. This method of securing the lid is ugly, and not particularly secure. It also makes accessing the system for maintenance needlessly more difficult and time-consuming. If you find yourself the unwitting recipient of such a system, then you can fix the issue by purchasing the Honeywell N6277V1 Cam Lock and Key along with the Honeywell P3422-2 Cam Lock Clip.
To install the cam lock, you'll need to first remove the knockout from the right front of the panel's enclosure lid. To do this, you may want to use a hammer and screwdriver, or a similar tool, to punch the knockout free. Once the oblong hole has been exposed, you can then insert the cam lock and clip it into place.
NOTE: The cam lock clips that are required to hold the cam lock in place inside the alarm panel's metal enclosure are not included in this item. Unless you are replacing a damaged cam lock, and already have a clip, be sure to purchase the clip as well.
