Instructions for Wall Mounting the NetVanta

 

 

Step

Action

 

 

1

Remove the mounting ears. Rotate them 90 degrees so that the portion of the bracket with the

 

mounting holes is flush with the bottom of the chassis. Reattach the mounting ears to the

 

chassis (see Figure 36).

 

 

2

Decide on a location for the NetVanta. All NetVanta 1000 and 1000R Series units are mounted

 

with the front panel facing down (see Figure 36). Keep in mind that the unit needs to be

 

mounted at or below eye-level so that the LEDs are viewable.

 

 

3

Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick)

 

to a wall stud.

 

Important! Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not provide

 

sufficient long-term stability.

 

 

4

Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two #6 to #10 (1 1/2 inches or greater

 

in length) wood screws through the unit’s brackets and into the mounted board (see Figure 36).

 

 

5

Proceed to the steps given in Supplying Power to the Unit on page 56.

 

 

To avoid damaging the unit, use only the screws included in the shipment when attaching mounting ears to the chassis.
