Unit Setup
To wall-mount the recorder
1
Locate the left and right wall stud to which the recorder is to be mounted.
If the wall studs are behind drywall, use a stud finder to locate the wall studs, and then mark the
wall stud location.
2
Mark the right mounting screw locations, using the brackets attached to the recorder as a
template. The wall mount holes are located 5.5 inches (14 centimeters) apart.
You can mount the recorder in one of two ways, depending on which orientation is most
convenient for your installation:
•
With the rear panel at the top (facing up) and the faceplate at the bottom (facing down)
•
With the faceplate at the top (facing up) and the rear panel at the bottom (facing down)
The underside of the recorder (with the feet) always faces the wall.
3
Install the right mounting screws at the marked locations.
•
If the right mounting location is in a wall stud, thread the screw directly into the wall stud.
•
If the right mounting location is in drywall, first install a drywall anchor, and then thread the
screw into the drywall anchor.
Do not thread the mounting screws all the way in. The screw heads should protrude
approximately 0.25 inches (0.64 centimeters) from the mounting surface so that you can hang
the recorder on them.
4
Lift up the recorder and hang it on the right mounting screws. Do not tighten the screws at this time.
