Mounting the MLC 52
Once the system has been cabled, configured, and tested, the MLC can be installed
in the wall or furniture.
Mounting the MLC to an electrical box or mounting bracket
You can mount the MLC 52 in an electrical box or a mounting bracket, as follows:
1. If you want to install a different faceplate, attach the MLC to the desired
faceplate using the provided screws. (See “Replacing the faceplate,” earlier in
this chapter.)
2. Connect all cables to the MLC, and disconnect power at the source.
3. Insert the MLC into the wall or furniture.
4. Secure the MLC to the wall box or mounting bracket with the provided
machine screws (as shown in the following illustrations), or attach it directly
to the furniture with wood or metal screws.
If the MLC (and the IR Link, if applicable) is not mounted to a grounded metal
wall box,
Ground each faceplate directly to an earth ground, or
Tie each faceplate to its circuit board and power supply via a ground pin on
one of the connectors.
Do
not tie a product’s faceplate to both a separate earth ground and the circuit
ground (via a connector pin). If you tie a product to two different ground
sources, you may introduce ground loops or other grounding-related problems
into the system.
Wall opening
is flush with
edge of box.
