Making The Cutout; Using The Template - Russound Collage Installation Manual

MAkING THE CUTOUT

Using the template

Note: For optimal viewing, the keypad should be installed at a
thermostat height of 59 inches (150 cm) (measured from the floor to the
center of the screen).
The included template is used as a guide to accurately position and cut
the correctly sized cutout in the wall for installation of the back box. Use
the template's vertical marks for alignment with the device mounting
holes of a single or double-gang box to determine the location of the
electrical wire. Cut out the wall following the pattern on the template.
There are four reference points on the template:
• Centered horizontal line
• Centered vertical line (#1)
• Two vertical lines (#2) that are 1.84 inches (46mm) apart
For a single gang box, use either #2 vertical line to line up the center of
the box (to avoid cutting into a stud).
For a double gang box, use both #2 lines to line up the back box.
All electrical boxes have different dimensions on the outside but similar
location as for device holes on the inside. These can be used as reference
points with the template to assist in centering the keypad.
The diagram at right depicts the template.
