Installing the Portable UltraTEV Monitor

Mounting the Hub Unit and Power Supply 

The Hub Unit can be placed in any orientation when operating, as long as the air vents on the top 
are not obstructed.  The Hub is shipped with a wall-mount bracket kit that screws into the side of 
the Hub to allow it to be fixed to a wall.  It is also shipped with a magnetic clamp system to attach 
to steel switchgear panels, without having to drill any holes. 

 

The magnets are extremely powerful neodymium magnets, care should be taken 
when handling them.
