NXD-700i - Installation

Pre-Wall Installation of the Conduit Box

Wall Mount panels (NXDs) are contained within an outer housing (back box).

INSTALLER: LEAVE A GAP BETWEEN THE STUD AND CONDUIT BOX
MOUNTING TABS TO ACCOMMODATE THE DRYWALL or SHEETROCK.
This gap allows the installation of the drywall or sheetrock after the CB-TP7 Conduit
Box has been installed.
The CB-TP7 is an optional metallic box that is secured onto a stud/beam in a pre-wall setting (where no walls
are present). Installation procedures and configurations can vary depending on the installation environment.
This section describes the installation procedures for the most common installation scenario.
The most important thing to remember when mounting this conduit box is that the NXD-700i Mounting Tabs
must lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock (FIG. 10).

1.
Rest the right Stud Mounting tabs onto the stud (keeping the knockouts on the left).
Be sure to leave enough of a gap between the stud and NXD Mounting tabs to accommodate the
installation of the drywall or sheetrock after the conduit box has been mounted. Ultimately, the Mounting
Tabs should lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock.
2.
Fasten the CB-TP7 conduit box to the stud through the holes on the right Stud Mounting tabs (FIG. 10),
using either nails or screws.

3.
Remove the wiring knockouts from the left side of the conduit box (CB-TP7) to accommodate the cables
being threaded through to the NXD touch panel (FIG. 10).
Remember that when mounting this conduit box, the NXD mounting tabs must lie
flush against the outside of the sheetrock.

This back box is not removed when installing the NXD into a Conduit Box (CB-TP7).
The back box is only removed to gain access for the replacement of the internal components.
Refer to SP-2258-02 for detailed installation dimensions.
It is recommended that you cut out the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the
installation drawings so that you can make any necessary cutout adjustments.
The wiring knockouts on the left side will be used for the NXD-700i Wall Mount panel connectors,
so always secure the conduit box to the stud using the Stud Mounting Holes on the right side of the
box.
