4.

 

Remove  the  telephone  by  sliding  it  upwards  ½  [in]  then  lifting  away  from  the 
unit and out of the compartment. This will expose a mounting location within the 
telephone compartment. 

 

5.

 

After  installation,  reinstall  the  telephone  within  its  compartment  by  holding  the 
phone  against  the  rear  surface  of  the  compartment  and  sliding  ½  [in] 
downward.  If the phone will not  slide downward into locking position,  the  6-32 
screws located behind the phone may need to be adjusted. Loosen the screws 
¼  turn  by  hand  and  repeat  step  8.  Likewise,  if  the  telephone  slides  correctly 
downward  but  does  not  feel  secure  in  place,  tighten  the  nuts  ¼  turn  by  hand 
and repeat  step 8. Plug phone and power connections back into phone in  the 
correct order. 

 
6.

 

Remove the three (3) Phillips screws from the left side of the unit which secure 
the hinged front cover shut. 

 

7.

 

Carefully  open  the  hinged  front  cover  taking  care  there  are  no  loose  items 
which may have shifted during transportation. 

 
8.

 

The 

AOR-24/AOR-32

  may  be  either  surface  mounted  onto  a  wall  or  flush 

mounted into a wall.  

 

NOTE:

  For  flush  mounting  units, 

AOR-24

  and 

AOR-32

  units  should  be 

ordered  with  the  available 

AOR-TR32

  Flush  Mount  Trim  Ring  (sold 

separately). 

 
 

NOTE:

 Conduit knockouts exist on the rear, top, and bottom sides of the 

enclosure  for  access  to  power  and  communication  lines.  Determine  the 
method  of  bringing  in  these  power  and  communication  lines 

before

 

mounting the enclosure. 

 
 

NOTE:

  Whenever  possible,  it  is  best  to  keep  the  maximum  clearance 

possible  between  analog  phone  lines  and  alternating  current.  Running 
phone  lines  too  close  to  hot  VAC  lines  will  produce  undesired  effects  on 
the phone line.

For mounting the unit directly to the surface of an interior wall,  

10.

 

The 

AOR-24/AOR32

  has four (4) surface mounting keyholes.  These keyholes 

are  visible  upon  product  arrival.  The  first  of  the  two  remaining  keyholes  is 
located  behind  the  built  in  telephone.  To  remove  the  built  in  telephone,
