No. 24-10174-107)
Special Tools Needed
The following supplies and tools are required:
• 1/4 inch (6 mm) nut driver (NiMH battery bracket).
• #2 Phillips screwdriver (for shield and card screws)
• anti-static mat or equivalent ESD safe work surface
• long-nose pliers (to grip and remove antenna

Mounting
Pre-installation
Before you install the FX70 Wi-Fi card, you must attach
the micro-coax cable to the tiny Main J1 coax port on the
card. Use Hirose U.FL coaxial connector to attach this
cable (Figure 2).
IMPORTANT: Be careful to attach this micro-coax
cable correctly. Keep the female (U.FL) end square to
the card as you press the cable onto the male port.
Insertion at an angle may damage the cable or the
card.
Keep the connector square to the card. You should feel
a small click while squeezing the connector onto the
card’s Main J1 antenna port (
Figure 3
).
!
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.
Disconnect power supply before making
electrical connections. Contact with
components carrying hazardous voltage
can cause electric shock and may result
in severe personal injury or death.
AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de
décharge électrique. Débrancher
l'alimentation avant de réaliser tout
branchement électrique. Tout contact
avec des composants conducteurs de
tensions dangereuses risque d'entraîner
une décharge électrique et de provoquer
des blessures graves, voire mortelles.

The click means the cable is attached. Carefully swivel
the cable around as needed during the rest of the
installation.
Note: Avoid any strain on this cable while continuing
with the installation of this card in the controller.
Mounting the FX70 Wi-Fi Card
Before you mount the Wi-Fi card, you must first
complete the installation of the micro-coax cable. See
Pre-installation
.
Installation also involves the removal and subsequent
replacement of any installed card in Slot 1 (to remove
and replace the metal shield).
Note: Any card in Slot 2 can remain in place.
1. Back up the FX70 controller's configuration to your
computer using FX Workbench.
2. Remove power from the FX70.
Note: If a 12 V sealed lead acid backup battery is
attached, disconnect the battery from the
controller.
Wait for all LED activity to stop. This should take
several seconds. All LEDs on the FX70 should be
off.
3. Remove the controller from any mounting and
place it on a flat, well-lit surface.
4. Remove the controller’s cover. To remove the
controller’s cover, press in the four tabs on both
ends of the unit, and lift the cover off.
Note: An LED ribbon cable connects the cover to
the main board. Be careful when lifting the cover
off.
5. Unplug the LED ribbon cable from the connector
on the controller (
Figure 5
). Move the cover
assembly aside.
6. Remove the NiMH battery and its metal bracket.
Note: You can install the without removing the
battery/bracket from the shield. However, removing
the battery/bracket makes it easier to move the
shield around later, when fastening the antenna
coax connector in the shield hole.
IMPORTANT: Turn off power to the controller when
you install or remove cards or a Mini-PCI card.
Otherwise, damage occurs. Also, when you install a
card, you must be very careful to plug the card into
its connector properly (pins aligned).

FX70 - Wi-Fi Card Installation Instructions4
Use a 1/4 inch (6 mm) nutdriver to unfasten the two
keps nuts that secure the bracket (
Figure 6
). Retain
the nuts. Lift the battery and bracket off, keeping
the two items together (
Figure 7
).
7. Unplug the NiMH battery from the main board
(
Figure 7
).
Set the battery pack and bracket aside, keeping
them together.
8. If necessary, use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to
remove the card in Slot 1. Otherwise, unfasten the
two screws that hold the Slot 1 blanking plate.
Remove the remaining shield screws (
Figure 8
),
and retain all screws.
9. Lift the shield away from the unit (
Figure 9
).
Note the Mini-PCI socket on the controller board
and the two antenna connector holes on the shield.
Note: If you want to add a new card in Slot 2,
install the card now (before replacing shield). Be
sure to correctly align the card's header pins into
the connector socket.
10. Insert the Wi-Fi adapter card into the socket, at an
angle of around 25 degrees (
Figure 10
).
The edge connectors of the card should be fully
seated in the socket.

11. Press down on the adapter card while pressing in
the socket, until the socket side clamps snap in
place on the card (
Figure 11
).
Lock the socket clamp on each side of the card in
place, with the edge connectors of the card seated
firmly in the socket.
12. With the card installed, remove the nut and lock
washer from the coax connector, and insert the
threaded end through either of the two holes on the
underside of the shield.
Install the lock washer and thread the nut onto the
coax connector (
Figure 12
). Tighten the nut (be
careful not to twist or pull the micro-coax cable).
Figure 13
shows the shield ready to reposition back
onto the controller, with the Wi-Fi card installed,
and the antenna coax connector mounted in the
shield hole.
Be careful not to pinch the micro-coax cable when
you reposition the shield back onto the controller.
13. Position the shield back into place and secure with
the screws previously removed.
If necessary, replace any card removed from Slot
1, refastening the two mounting screws. Otherwise,
refasten the screws holding the Slot 1 blanking
plate (
Figure 14
).
Note: When you install a card, be sure to align the
header pins of the card correctly into the connector
socket.

14. Replace the NiMH battery pack and mounting
bracket onto the shield and refasten the two keps
nuts using a 1/4 inch (6 mm) nutdriver (
Figure 15
).
15. Plug the connector plug of the battery into the
NiMH battery connector on the controller
(
Figure 16
).
Note: The red wire goes towards the outside
edge. You cannot plug the battery in reversed.
16. Before you replace the plastic cover, remove the
antenna knockout. To remove the antenna
knockout, first grip the knockout with a pair of long
nose pliers (
Figure 17
).
Gripping tightly, twist the pliers jaws to break the
cutout free from the cover (
Figure 18
).
Clean up any jagged edges of the cutout, by
burnishing with the rounded edges of the pliers.

17. Reconnect the LED ribbon cable from the cover to
the connector on the controller (
Figure 19
).
18. Apply the included FCC/IC listing label onto an
available area of the controller’s metal shield.
19. Replace the cover onto controller, orienting the
antenna knockout over the coax connector.
Note: Make sure that the LED ribbon cable is
connected and not outside the base.
20. Press down on both ends of cover to make sure
end tabs (two on each side) are snapped in place.
21. If necessary, remount the controller.
22. If accessory modules were unplugged, plug them
back into the controller as before, and secure.
23. If you disconnected an external, 12 V sealed
lead-acid battery, reconnect the battery back to the
controller.
Antenna Installation
A 2.4 GHz stub antenna with tilt-and-swivel RP-SMA
female coax connector is provided for use with the
Wi-Fi adapter in the FX70 controller. To attach the
antenna, insert it into the RP-SMA coax jack on the
controller, and finger-tighten the knurled nut
(
Figure 22
).

Rotate in whatever position is needed for mounting
clearance and/or best reception.
If needed, use the included antenna extension cable.
Typically, this cable is required when the controller is
installed inside a metal enclosure.
Note: The antenna cannot be any closer than 10
inches (254 mm) to any other antenna (for example, on
another wireless card also installed in the controller). In
this case, use the included antenna extension cable kit
to relocate the antenna to maintain this minimum
distance.
Antenna Extension Cable
To locate the included stub antenna off the FX70
controller, install the included cable extension kit.
Included is a 6.6 ft (2 m) RP-SMA-type coax extension
cable and a steel bracket for wall or panel mounting.
See
Figure 23
for bracket details and dimensions.
Repair Information
If the FX70 Wi-Fi card fails to operate within its
specifications, replace the unit. For a replacement
card, contact the nearest Johnson Controls®
representative.
