Installing the P/2 DA2 WM/EC

Easy setup procedure

The wall-mounted P/2 DA2 WM kit consists of the faceplate/distribution amplifier assembly and a mounting bracket which mounts in a wall opening and to which the faceplate assembly is attached. The P/2 DA2 EC kit consists of the faceplate/distribution amplifier assembly which mounts in the Euro Channel raceway.

equipment. If the optional Architectural Adapter

 

Plate (AAP) is being installed, please refer to

 

“Installing Architectural Adapter Plates” in this chapter.

 

The rear connectors are the same for both WM and

EC models. Please refer to figure 2-3. Connect the

 

VGA output cable to the 15-pin HD female output

 

connector. To prevent installation debris or objects

 

from entering the opening in the sheet metal just

 

above this VGA connector, it is suggested that some

 

masking tape be used to temporarily cover this

“Euro Channel installation” section.

6Power up all of the input and output devices.

7The image should now display on screen. If it does not, double check steps 3 through 6 and make adjustments as needed. Refer to the section “Setting the DIP switches” in this chapter.

8For the P/2 DA2 WM, attach the P/2 DA2 WM to the wall mounting bracket (see “P/2 DA2 WM wall installation”).

For the P/2 DA2 EC, attach the P/2 DA2 EC to the Euro Channel (see “P/2 DA2 EC Euro Channel installation”).

Installing the mounting bracket

The wall-mounted P/2 DA2 WM kit includes a mounting bracket which is installed in a wall opening. The AAP version of the P/2 DA2 WM uses a wider mounting bracket, as shown below.

1.Once the proper wall location for mounting the distribution amplifier has been selected, cut an opening in the wall using the proper mounting template found in the “Appendix” section.

2.Using two supplied screws and mounting clips, attach the mounting bracket to the hole opening, as shown below.

opening. Remove this tape after installation is

completed. Next, if there is audio output, connect

the audio output cable to the 3.5 mm captive screw

connector. Finally, connect the power cable to the

power input connector. Refer to the “Cabling” and

“Connecting audio” sections of this chapter.
