Installation Procedures: 17" Panels

3.Cutout the notched beam using a height of 13.554" (34.43 cm) (as shown below in FIG. 55) and a depth equal to the thickness of the drywall.

FIG. 55 CB-TP17 conduit box installation into a notched stud (showing before and after installation)

The determining factor in the depth of the cut into the beam is the thickness of the drywall. The mounting tabs MUST BE FLUSH against the drywall and therefore, the depth of the notch depends on that thickness.

4.Insert one side of the conduit box into the indention on the notched stud and rest the other side of the box against the opposite beam.

5.Install and secure a shorter horizontal beam below the conduit box. This beam acts to support the weight of the box from below and should be secured to both vertical beams (at the sides).

6.Fasten the CB-TP17 to the Notched stud/beam through the stud fastening holes, located on the inside of the conduit box (FIG. 56), by using either nails or screws.

7.Insert a perpendicular block between the Non-Notched stud/beam and the Conduit Box. This block acts as a bridge to secure the stud/beam to the CB-TP17 along the stud fastening holes located inside of the box.

8.Secure the perpendicular block to the Non-Notched stud/beam (FIG. 56) by using either nails or screws.

9.Fasten the CB-TP17 to the block through the stud fastening holes, located on the inside of the Conduit Box (FIG. 56), by using either nails or screws.

10.Remove any necessary wiring knockouts from the (optional) conduit box (CB-TP17) (FIG. 56) where the necessary cables are threaded through for connection to the touch panel.

11.Thread the incoming RJ-45, Ethernet, and any other audio/video wiring through the knockouts (use of the top or bottom knockouts are recommended with this installation). Refer to the Wiring Guidelines for the 1700VG Panels section on page 87 for pinout descriptions. Leave enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the panel.

12.Install the drywall/sheetrock before inserting the main NXD unit into the CB-TP17.
