Mounting To A Wall Stud - Extron electronics SM 3 User Manual

Mounting to a Wall Stud

1.
Install the speaker cables into the wall or conduit before installing the speaker mounting
plate.
2.
Locate the wall stud where the mounting plate will be installed and while positioning
the mounting plate on the wall, mark the location of two pilot holes. Use the holes on
either side of the mounting plate so that the stud does not interfere with the speaker
wire routing (see figure 6 below).
NOTE:
Figure 6.
3. Drill the mounting plate pilot holes and cut the speaker wire access hole, as previously
marked.
4. Route the speaker cables through the wall without snagging, being sure to leave
enough slack to connect the wires to the mounting plate.
A speaker wire access hole (see figure 6 below) must also be cut in the wall,
so mark that hole location now with the mounting plate positioned on
the wall, while ensuring that the wall stud does not interfere with the wire
routing and that the mounting plate hides the access hole.
