Creating A Wall Opening For The Cables - Smart Technologies 1710 Installation Manual

Creating a Wall Opening for the Cables

To create an opening in the wall for the cables, you'll need the SMART Pen Tray Wall-Mount
Template from the accessory kit. You'll also need a measuring tool, a level and the appropriate
tools for creating a wall opening.
To create a wall opening for the cables
1. Position the top edge of the SMART Pen Tray Wall Mount Template 1" (2.5 cm) below the
bottom edge of the interactive whiteboard frame, making sure the template is level and aligned
with the center of the interactive whiteboard.

Center the template
1" (2.5 cm) below the
interactive whiteboard
2. Use the template to mark the center of a 2 3/8" (6.0 cm) diameter hole for the cables on the
wall, as well as five drywall anchor locations. Later, you will use these drywall anchor locations
to attach the pen tray to the wall.

Locations
NOTE: The locations for these screws probably won't be at the wall studs. However, if they
are, you can use a No. 8 × 1 1/2" wood screw (not supplied) or a self-drilling metal screw (not
supplied) without a drywall anchor at each location.
3. Remove the template.
4. Create a hole in the wall for the cables using the appropriate tool.
5. Insert a plastic grommet into each side of this wall opening.
