MVP-WDS Wall Docking Station for MVP Panels

Installing the MVP-WDS in a CB-MVPWDS Rough-In Box

 

The rough-in box must be mounted prior to continuing this section. Refer to the 

Installing the 

CB-MVPWDS Rough-In Box

section on page 4 for detailed pre-wall installation instructions.

 

The faceplate must be removed prior to any surface installation (see the 

Removing the MVP-

WDS Faceplate

section on page 5).

 

Verify that the USB and power cables have been threaded through the knockouts on the right 
of the rough-in box. Leave enough slack in the wiring to accommodate re-positioning of the 
panel.

1.

Connect the 2-pin power connector and USB cables to the WDS. The WDS must be installed with 
these attached. The USB connectors can be from either a USB extension cable, or a wireless USB 
RF transmitter.

2.

Insert the WDS into the rough-in box, so that the Mounting Tabs on the WDS lie flush against the 
rough-in box (FIG. 9).  

Verify that the terminal end of the power cable is not connected to a power source 
before plugging in the 2-pin power connector.
