The MXD-700 may be installed directly into a solid surface environment, using either solid
surface screws or the included locking tabs for different mounting options.
Once installed, the MXD-700 is contained within a clear outer housing known as the Backbox
(FIG. 2). The Backbox is removed to install it into a wall, or when using the optional Rough-In
Box accessory (FG039-18).

Note: For typical mounting surfaces, such as drywall, use the locking tabs as the primary
method for securing the Backbox to the surface. For thin walls or solid surfaces, use
mounting screws (not included).

Power Via PoE

Power for the MXD-700 is supplied via PoE (Power Over Ethernet), utilizing an AMX-
certified, capacitive touch-compliant PoE injector or other approved AMX PoE power source.
The incoming Ethernet cable should be connected to the RJ45 port on the MXD-700.
Installing the MXD-700 Into a Wall
The MXD-700 comes with a clear plastic Backbox (designed to attach the panel to most
standard wall materials. This Backbox has two locking tabs (one on top and one on bottom)
to help lock the Backbox to the wall.
These locking tabs are only extended AFTER the Backbox is inserted into the wall (FIG. 3).

• When installing the Backbox, make sure that the assembly is in the correct position
and in the correct place. Once the locking tabs are extended and locked into place,
removing the Backbox may be difficult without having access to the back of the wall or
causing damage to the wall.
• In order to ensure a stable installation of the MXD-700, the thickness of the wall
material must be a minimum of .50 inches (1.27cm) and a maximum of .875 inches
(2.22cm). The mounting surface should also be smooth and flat.

Installing the Backbox

For best results, use the included Installation Template (68-5968-04) to ensure proper
placement. The template is marked on one side with directions for both landscape and
portrait installations to ensure that the touch panel and Backbox are properly aligned.
WARNING: Using the Installation Template to select the final placement of the Backbox is
highly recommended. The outside edges of the template are the same dimensions as the
touch panel, which allows you to troubleshoot possible conflicts with wall edges, doors, and
other potential obstacles.
1. Prepare the area by removing any screws or nails from the drywall before beginning the
cutout process.
2. After ensuring proper placement, cut out the mounting surface for the Backbox, using the
(included) Installation Template as a guide.
CAUTION: Making sure the actual cutout opening is slightly smaller than the provided
dimensions is highly recommended. This provides a margin of error if the opening needs
to be expanded. Too little wall material removed is always better than too much.
3. Thread the incoming Ethernet cable through the surface opening (FIG. 4).
Leave enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the panel.
4. Remove the Backbox knockouts and thread the incoming wiring through the knockout
holes.
5. Thread the incoming cables from the mounting surface opening and through the
knockouts.
