Installation Overview

CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. These products must be used with UL approved electrical boxes.

Install the interface as follows:

1Turn all of the equipment off. Make sure that the computer, the interface, and the output devices (projector/ monitor, speakers) are all turned off and disconnected from the power source.

2Select the installation location and install the electrical floorbox. Refer to the documentation that was included with the floorbox.

3Route the cables that connect to the rear of the interface (or the device(s) to be installed in the SC-AFM8 adapter plate).

4Set the gain and DIP switches (or the switch(es) on the rear of the device(s) to be installed in the SC-AFM8 adapter plate). Refer to the RGB 400xi Series User Manual, Part #68-542-01, the RGB 470xi Series User Manual, Part #68-661-01, (or the appropriate manual(s) for the device(s) to be installed in the SC-AFM8 adapter plate).

5For the SC-AFM8 adapter plate only, secure the device(s) to be installed to the front of the faceplate.

6Connect the video, audio, and power cables to the rear of the device. Refer to the RGB 400xi Series User Manual, Part #68-542-01, the RGB 470xi Series User Manual, Part #68-661-01, (or the appropriate manual(s) for the device(s) to be installed in the SC-AFM8 adapter plate).

7Connect power cords and turn on the projector or monitor and audio device, the interface, and the computer.

8The picture should now appear, and sound should be audible. If not, ensure that all devices are plugged in and receiving power. Check the cabling and switch settings, and make adjustments as needed.

9Disconnect power from all the devices.

10Mount the faceplate into the electrical box. See Mounting the faceplate to the floorbox in this manual.

11Restore power to the devices.

12For the SC-AFM8 adapter plate only, as necessary, secure blank 1-gang faceplate(s) to the front of the faceplate.

Installation Instructions

CAUTION The interface must be installed into an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) approved Steel City electrical floor box. The floorbox is not included with the interface; the installer is responsible for obtaining and installing the box.

Preparing the site and cables

Choose a location that allows cable runs without interference. Allow enough depth for both the floorbox and the cables. You need to run the conduit (if required by local code) and cables under the floor before installing the interface.

The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes and to the interface’s size requirements. Dimensional drawings and actual-size cut-out templates are provided at the end of this guide.

1.	Install the floorbox in accordance with the documentation
	that accompanied the box.
2.	Feed cables through the floorbox punch-out holes, and
	secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.
3.	Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources
	of short circuits. Trim back and/or insulate shields with
	heat shrink (figure 1).

CAUTION	To prevent short circuits, the outer foil shield can be
	cut back to the point where the cable exits the cable
	clamp. Both braided and foil shields should be
	connected to an equipment ground at the other end
	of the cable.
