Extron electronic manual Extender Series Installation, Preliminary

•The Extender AAP EX can also be installed into an HSA 400 Series or HSA 800 Series surface access enclosure.

•The Extender WM can be installed in a standard or compact one-gang electrical wall box. This is also true for the Extender D, though it requires a standard Decora©-style wall plate (not included).

•The Extender WM AUS can be installed in a standard or compact Australian one-gang electrical wall box.

•The Extender WM AAP can be installed in a three-gang wall box, and its faceplate accepts up to four single height Extron Architectural Adapter Plates (AAPs).

•The Extender MK can be mounted into a standard, shallow knockout switch box (also known as a KO box or MK box) that is used in Singapore, the United Kingdom, and Australia.

The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes and to the Extender’s size requirements. Dimensional drawings and templates are provided in appendix B of this manual.

1. Refer to the template that corresponds to the Extender model and wall box being used.

NThe templates are not shown at full size. Pay attention to the measurements shown on the templates.

2. Mark the guidelines for the opening on the wall or furniture.

•If the Extender will be installed in a wall box, place the box against the installation surface and draw a line on it around the outside of the box.

•If the Extender will be installed without a wall box (using mud rings or fastening it directly to the wall or furniture), measure and mark the surface for the cutout area indicated in the template.

3. Cut out the material from the marked area.

4. Check the opening size by inserting the wall box (if used) or the Extender (if no box is used) into the opening. The box and line driver should fit easily into the opening.

Enlarge or smooth the edges of the opening if needed.

5. Feed cables through the wall box punch-out holes, and secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.

6. Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources of short circuits. Trim back and/or insulate shields with heat shrink.
