Flat Surface Installation

It is recommended that you cutout the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in 
the installation drawings so that you can make any necessary cutout adjustments.

Before you begin, if you are using the 2-pin power connector, verify that the terminal 
end of the power cable is not connected to a power source

1.

If assembled, remove the Mio Modero DMS from the backbox. Place a flathead 
screwdriver between the tab of the backbox and the notch of the Mio Modero 
DMS (see FIG. 2) and pry the two apart.

2.

Cut out the surface for the Mio Modero DMS backbox using the dimensions 
shown in FIG. 3. A template is included to help you determine dimensions.    

3.

Thread the CAT5/CAT6 and, if necessary, the power cables through one of the 
provided breakaway access points on the backbox. Leave enough slack in the 
wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the unit.

4.

Insert the backbox into the cutout until the rim of the backbox is flush against 
the wall.

5.

Insert and secure four #4-40 mounting screws (not included) into their 
corresponding holes located along the sides of the backbox until it is flush 
against the wall. Or use expansion clips at this time.

6.

Connect the 2-pin power connector and/or CAT5/CAT6 cables in the back of 
the Mio Modero DMS. See FIG. 2 for port locations.

7.

Insert and fasten the Mio Modero DMS into the backbox, start at the top of the 
device and tilt in toward the bottom.
