AMX CB-MVPWDS Installation Manual

Overview

The CB-MVPWDS Rough-In Box allows the MVP-WDS to be installed in a solid
surface (e.g., wall or podium). This Rough-In box includes a removable access
plate to provide better access to wiring. The CB-MVPWDS is symmetric top-to-
bottom, so the access plate may be installed at the top or the bottom.

WARNING: INSTALLER, LEAVE A GAP BETWEEN THE STUD AND
ROUGH-IN BOX TO ACCOMMODATE THE DRYWALL/SHEETROCK.
This gap allows the installation of the drywall/sheetrock after the CB-MVPWDS
has been mounted onto the beams. The stud notching and Rough-In Box
installation must be done prior to any wall installation.
Note: The most important thing to remember when mounting this Rough-In Box
is that the mounting tabs must be mounted flush against the outside of the
sheetrock. This step determines whether or not the mounting stud is notched
(cutout-out to fit the Rough-In Box).

Installing the CB-MVPWDS Rough-In Box

The CB-MVPWDS (FG037-10) is a metallic Rough-In Box that can be secured to
a stud in a pre-wall setting. The MVP-WDS can then installed into the Rough-In
Box.
Note: Installation procedures and configurations vary depending on the
installation environment.
When mounting the Rough-In Box, the MVP-WDS Mounting Tabs must lie flush
against the outside of the sheetrock.
Refer to SP596502 for detailed installation dimensions (see reverse).
• 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 CB-MVPWDS can be installed with the removable access panel
positioned either on top or bottom. The access panel provides convenient
access to in-wall wiring and must be re-installed prior to mounting the
MVP-WDS.
1. Place the left side of the Rough-In Box on a stud, making sure that five
Stud Fastening Holes and removable Access Panel are oriented correctly
(installation dependent). Be sure to leave enough of a gap between the
stud and Mounting Tabs to accommodate the installation of the drywall or
sheetrock after the Rough-In Box has been mounted. Ultimately, the
Mounting Tabs should lie flush against the outside of the sheetrock.
Note: Although there are wiring knockouts are on both sides of the Rough-In
Box, the knockouts on the right side will be used for the MVP-WDS (wall docking
station) connectors, so always secure the Rough-In Box to the stud using the
Stud Mounting Holes on the left side of the box.
2. Using either nails or screws, fasten the Rough-In Box to the stud through
the five Stud Fastening Holes.
3. Remove the wiring knockouts from the right side of the Rough-In Box to
accommodate cabling to the MVP-WDS.
4. Thread the USB and Power cables through the knockouts on the right of
the Rough-In Box. It is recommended that you test these connections
before fully installing the WDS.
5. Install the drywall/sheetrock before inserting the MVP-WDS into the
Rough-In Box.
