8. Cable and install the desired AAPs, set the Composite/
RGB and DDSP DIP switches, and cable and test the
transmitter before fastening the transmitter into the wall
box. See Input cabling, later in this chapter, for details.
The AAPs, switches, and cable are inaccessible after
installation.

Mounting the AAP devices

The TP T 468 faceplates accept up to four optional single height
Extron Architectural Adapter Plates (AAPs). The adapter plates
allow for a variety of connectors.
Blank plates (two single-space and one double-space plate) are
included on the transmitter to cover unused spaces. Adapter
plates must be ordered separately. They also must be attached
to the faceplate and cabled before the interface is installed in the
wall or furniture (figure 2-10). The screws needed for installing
the adapter plates are built into the plates, so no additional
screws are needed.
1. Remove the blank plates from the interface by unscrewing
the nuts that fasten the plates to the faceplate.
2. Insert the adapter plate screws through the holes in the
faceplate. Attach the adapter plates to the faceplate with
the provided captive washers and #4-40 nuts.

with machine screws (figure 2-11 on the next page).
