d.Remove the base plate and set it aside. Cut out the marked area for cable access.

For drywall with wood studs

i.Drill ¼ inch pilot holes at the marked stud locations.

ii.Align the base plate mounting holes over the pilot holes and lightly secure with 5/16 inch lag screws and washers.

NOTE: If using toggle screws for assembly, follow the installation method (steps A-D) shown in figure 3.

A. Grasp plastic handle, collapse toggle and insert into wall.

B. Slide plastic washer down into pilot hole.

C. Cut off plastic handle close to wall.

D. Hand screw in pan head bolt until 1/8 inch gap remains.

iii.Verify level and position, and fully tighten down all the screws to secure the plate flush to the wall.

For drywall with steel studs

i.Drill a ½ inch (13 mm) hole through the stud at each of the locations (four recommended).

ii.Insert the supplied toggles through the studs and lightly secure the plate using the four supplied (¼-20 x 2 inch) bolts and washers.

iii.Verify level and position, and fully tighten down all the bolts to secure the plate flush to the wall.

2.Mount the Switcher

a.Place the mounting plate flat on the switcher base with the two small raised tabs on top, and the small securing tab over the front panel. Align the two mounting holes in the switcher base with the corresponding holes on the mounting plate. Secure the plate to the switcher using the two 4-40 x ¼ inch pan head screws.

b.Secure the mounting plate (and switcher) to the base plate by aligning the two small tabs on the back of the mounting plate over the corresponding tabs on the base plate (see figure 4, inset). Slide the mounting plate (and switcher) down into place. Secure it to the base plate by passing a 6-32x¼ inch screw up through the securing tab (see figure 4). Tighten down the screw.
