Detailed specifications drawings for the
are available to download from www.amx.com.
NOTE:
Refer to A Note About Wall and Rack Installation
for important notes on thermal concerns with Wall and Rack
Installations.
The MXD-430 may be installed directly into a solid surface environment, using either solid surface screws or the included locking
tabs for different mounting options.
Once installed, the MXD-430 is contained within a clear outer housing known as the
Backbox
This Backbox is removed before installing the device into a wall or when using the optional Rough-In Box accessory (FG039-19).
NOTE:
For typical mounting surfaces, such as drywall, use the locking tabs as the primary method for securing the Backbox to the
surface. For thin walls or solid surfaces, use mounting screws (not included).
Installing the MXD-430 Into a Wall
The backbox has two locking tabs (one on each side) to help lock the backbox to the wall (see FIG. 52).
These locking tabs are only extended AFTER the backbox is inserted into the wall.
