8.Test the system to ensure that the MLC is functioning properly.

9.Mount the MLC.

Before mounting the MLC to a wall or furniture, make sure that all device cables are connected to the MLC rear panel. Disconnect power at the source from all devices in the system.

a.Align the MLC wall frame to the metal mounting bracket, which you attached to the mounting surface in step 3.

b.Holding the wall frame in place on the bracket, press the MLC into the frame until the two tabs on either side of the unit snap into the opening of the metal bracket, holding the MLC in place.

If you are experiencing difficulty with the MLC staying in place when installed in a cable raceway, this may be due to a gap between the metal mounting bracket and the wall frame.

When this gap exists, the tabs on the sides of the MLC do not reach the metal mounting bracket and the MLC does not snap completely into the metal bracket.

You can remedy this situation by installing a spacer (provided with the MLC) between the metal mounting bracket and the rim of the junction box. This spacer appears very similar to the metal mounting bracket, except that it has holes instead of slots for the mounting screws, is engraved with the words “Optional Spacer” and “Place behind bracket,” and has a slightly larger center opening than the metal mounting bracket.

1.Mount the electrical box in the raceway.

2.Attach the spacer to the electrical box by inserting two of the included screws in the holes at the sides of the spacer. Leave the screw heads protruding approximately 1/8 inch from the surface of the spacer.

3.With the “Front” label facing toward you, place the metal mounting bracket onto the spacer so that the screw heads pass through two of the slotted holes in opposite sides of the bracket.

NOTE: Ensure that the surface of the mounting

 

bracket containing the word “Front” is

 

facing out (away from the spacer and

junction box).

 

4.Rotate the mounting bracket as necessary to ensure that the MLC will be positioned straight on the mounting surface and not skewed to either side.

5. Tighten the screws to secure the bracket to the spacer.

6.Pull the cables through the electrical box and the wall

frame.

7. Disconnect power from all devices at the source and connect all cables to the MLC.

8.Align the wall frame with the metal mounting bracket on the mounting surface.

9.Press the MLC into the wall frame until the unit snaps

into place.
