Master Station Rough-In

VMC1MB Master Station Mounting Bracket

The VMC1MB mounts flush with the wall stud and holds the Master Station and Power Supply (See Figure 1). Position the VMC1MB at a suggested height of 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 feet from the floor to center of the unit. As all wiring from other stations is generally terminated at the rear of the Master Station, the wall should be no less than 3 inches deep. If required, install additional wood shims or metal rough-in enclosures to allow for adequate support of the Master Station.

IMPORTANT: Install the Master Station in a cavity wall to allow for the wiring behind it. Do not install in a brick wall. For wall tiling around the Master Station, ensure that it is mounted either completely within or clear of tile to avoid an uneven surface. Be sure to allow at least 10” of space below Master Station Bracket and firebreaks for Power Supply. This is also necessary for clearance when installing the Master Station Mounting Bracket into pre-cut drywall opening.

The VMC1MB has a correct orientation, so review Figures 1 and 2 to be sure it is right side up.

VMC1MB Installation - Unfinished Wall

Install the VMC1MB flush with the front of the wall stud and fasten in place with screws as shown. After drywall has been installed, cut out an opening to the inside dimensions of the VMC1MB (7-1/4” x 11.”).
