VAIL AMP INSTALLATION
1.
Prior to actual installation of the VAIL Amp, it is necessary to run
speaker cable to the ampli er location.
2.
Use the provided cut-out template to align and cut opening. If you
are not sure of potential obstruction behind the mounting area,
start by cutting a small penciled mounting hole. Cutting a small
hole at an angle rst will make drywall repair much easier if
necessary.
3.
Once con rmed that there is no obstruction behind the mounting
area, nish cutting the hole at a 90 degree angle.
4.
Connect the speaker cables to the speaker output phoenix
connector while ensuring polarity with the speakers, + to + and – to
– and tighten with small at head screw driver. Then plug to the
back of the VAIL Amp.
5. Connect the CAT-5 cable and 16 AWG power cable to the back of VAIL
Amp and feed through the wall opening to Wall Plate location.
6.
Insert VAIL Amp into wall opening with micro USB and 3.5mm plugs
for Echo Dot on the top of the ampli er and tighten the two
mounting screws on the front of the ampli er.
Note: Do not overtightened mounting screws. This may damage
the ampli er, wall surface, or both.
WALL PLATE INSTALLATION
1.
Choose a location for the wall plate, preferably near an electrical
outlet.
2.
Use the provided cut-out template to align and cut opening. If you
are not sure of potential obstruction behind the mounting area, start
by cutting a small penciled mounting hole. Cutting a small hole at an
angle rst will make drywall repair much easier if necessary.
3.
Once con rmed that there is no obstruction behind the mounting
area, nish cutting the hole at a 90 degree angle.
4.
Feed CAT-5 cable and 16 AWG power cable through hole and connect
to the back of the wall plate.
5.
Use provided color matched screws to secure wall plate to surface or
low voltage single gang box or bracket.
Note: Color matched screws are intended for any in-wall low-voltage
single gang box or bracket.
6.
Connect any local audio source with variable audio outputs with an
analog RCA cable.
7.
Connect any powered subwoofer using a subwoofer cable.
8.
Connect provided 24v power supply to electrical outlet.
OPTIONAL
VAIL Plug Power Supply (PPS) – When replacing in-wall volume controllers with the VAIL Amp, we recommend the PPS to convert speaker cable from the
ampli er into injected power cables.

AMAZON ECHO DOT (GEN 2) MOUNTING
1.
Connect the Micro USB Power Plug to the back of the
Amazon Echo Dot.
2.
Connect the 3.5mm audio plug to the audio output on the
back of the Amazon Echo Dot.
Note: Do not forcibly pull on the micro USB or 3.5mm cables
as this will damage the VAIL Amp.
3.
Turn ON VAIL Amp to either 4-Ohm or 8-Ohm setting
depending on impedance requirements.
4.
Insert Echo Dot at a slight angle with connectors on top in
rst, then gently push on the bottom to fully mount Echo
Dot.
5.
Make sure Echo Dot buttons are level to the wall or surface.
6.
You may need to adjust the two VAIL Amp mounting screws
to ensure that the VAIL Amp is also level.
7.
Clip on the trim plate with the four clip points located on the
top, bottom, left, and right side of the VAIL Amp.
Note: Do not over-press the clip points. This may damage
the ampli er, wall surface, or both.
