Installation

Step 2: Wall

This manual shows an AVTrac installation with cables being run inside a drywall cavity. If the cables from the AVTrac system will not be run inside a drywall cavity, ignore this section and go to Step 3 (Track) on the next page.

To run cables from the AVTrac system inside a drywall cavity, follow these instructions:

2-1If necessary, remove the baseboard from the bottom of the wall and mark where the AVTrac will abut the wall.

Mark wall

2-2Using a drill, box cutters and/or a saw, cut a 4" W x 1½" H (10.2 cm x 3.8 cm) hole at the base of the wall.

If there is a metal base stud, use a hand saw or tin	1½" (3.8	cm)

snips to cut it at both edges of the hole and bend

it back into the hole so that the stud lies flat on the floor. (Use a file to remove any jagged edges that might damage cables.)

The hole will eventually be covered by the baseboard, so it does not have to be perfect.
