2. Installation Method
Step 1 – Preparation
De-energise the car; lock-out/tag-out and verify zero energy. Record serial number and LED colour code.

Step 2 – Mounting
Remove old board by pressing side latches; insert 5PIN748P018-C into 30 mm Ø cut-out until it clicks. Ensure face flush for IP54 seal.

Step 3 – Wiring
Route 5-core 0.75 mm² cable through PG9 gland. Connect:
– Button NO (white)
– LED +24 V (red)
– LED 0 V (black)
– Spare (blue/green)
Torque screws to 0.6 N·m; earth housing if metal.

Step 4 – Commissioning
Power-up; press each button 20× – verify clean LED illumination and controller acknowledgment. Apply calibration sticker dated by technician.

3. Daily & Preventive Maintenance
Daily (Building Staff)
Visual check – LEDs bright, buttons respond, no cracks or moisture.

Monthly
Wipe faceplate with 70 % IPA; check for sticking or excessive play.

Quarterly
Measure contact resistance (<100 mΩ) and LED current (<20 mA). Cycle buttons 100× under load.

Annually
Replace board if tactile feel deteriorates or LED brightness drops below 70 %.

4. Replacement Cycle & Indicators
| Duty Cycle | Replace Every | Cycles | Warning Signs |
| Standard residential | 5–7 years | 1 M | Contact >500 mΩ, LED dim |
| Commercial / hospital | 3–4 years | 500k | Cracks, burns, tactile collapse |
| 24/7 metro | 2–3 years | 300k | Frequent “button fault” logs |

Replace immediately if:
– Contact resistance >1 Ω or LED failure
– Physical damage or water ingress (IP54 compromised)
– Repeated “button fault” without external cause

Maintain one spare 5PIN748P018-C per 25 cars for <4-hour response.
