1 About this manual This chapter describes the daily use of the MTL661/2/3/5. This
instruction is meant for users / operators.
This manual explains the installation of the IS, field mounting MTL661(B)
and MTL663(B); and the panel mounting MTL662(B) and MTL665(B) . A 2.2 Control panel
model number with a ‘B’ suffix indicates that it has a backlight.
The following keys are provided on each model:
For Zone 2 mounting the MTL661(B) -NA and MTL662(B)-NA versions
must be used.
