Installation Overview
Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. To install
and set up the DVCM 50, follow these steps:
1 Prepare the installation site as appropriate. Prepare the cables and, if
necessary, cut a hole in the wall and install an electrical box or mounting
bracket (mud ring). Follow the instructions provided with the optional
mounting bracket or wall box.
2 Attach the DVCM 50 to a device faceplate (e.g., the MLC 104 AAP) or a wall
plate (e.g., the AAP 102) that has a four-space AAP opening.
3 Attach cables and the dual IR Emitter to the control connector on the rear
panel of the DVCM. Connect the cables to the DVD and/or VCR, and to the
optional IR Link or IRL 20, as appropriate.
4
Connect power cords and turn on all devices, including the DVCM.
5
Confi gure the DVCM 50 by using one of the following methods:
• IR Learning (See Confi guring using IR Learning, in chapter 3.)
• IR Data Transfer (beaming) (See Confi guring using data transfer, in
chapter 3.)
• Windows ® -based confi guration software program (See Using the
Windows ® -based confi guration software in chapter 5 for detailed information
on the confi guration software.)
6 Test the system: press the DVCM’s buttons, and observe the DVD player and/
or VCR responses. If they are not responding properly, ensure that all devices
are plugged in and receiving power. Check the cabling and make adjustments
as needed.
7 (Optional) Mount the DVCM to the wall or furniture, as follows:
a . If using the optional external power supply, disconnect it at the power
source end (not at the DVCM).
b . Disconnect the other devices’ power.
c . Secure the faceplate containing the DVCM onto the wall, furniture,
mounting bracket, or UL-approved electrical wall box. See Mounting the
DVCM 50, later in this chapter.
d . Restore power to the DVCM and to the connected devices.
The DVCM optional external power supply is not needed if the DVCM is used
with the MLC 104.
