f. To mount the WMK 160 onto non-masonry

walls, at the desired site, locate and mark the
wall studs.

NOTES:

For ideal installation secure the base plate
to at least one wall stud

Drywall KapToggles can be used for holes
not aligned with studs.

Always use the widest spacing of screws
and KapToggles.

The base plate can be installed over an
existing electrical outlet.

g. Hold and level the base plate against the wall

and mark the positions of the slotted mounting
holes that are on the stud lines (see image at
right). Where applicable, mark the mounting
holes on the wall for drywall toggles.

h. If the cables are to be run behind the wall to the

WMK 160 location, mark the cutout area on the
wall for the signal cable access hole and cut out
the marked area.

i. Drill 1¾ inch (4.4 cm) deep pilot holes at the

hole marks.

j. At the pilot holes, screw in the screws until a

gap of about 3/8 inch (9 mm) remains between
the wall and the screw heads.

k. Align the slotted mounting holes in the base

plate over the installed screws, then slide the
plate down so the screw fit into the slots.

l. Verify level and position, and tighten down all

the screws to secure the plate flush to the wall.

NOTE:

If using toggle assemblies, see figure at

right for method.

B2. Install the Switcher Onto the Base Plate.

a. Place the switcher (base up) on a flat surface.

Place the mounting plate flat on the switcher
base with the plate tabs (raised section up)
over the edge of the front panel. Align the two
mounting holes in the switcher base with the
corresponding holes on the mounting plate.
Secure the plate to the switcher with the
supplied 4-40 x ¼ inch screws.

b. Secure the switcher mounting plate (with

switcher attached) to the base plate by sliding
the two tabs into the slots at the bottom edge
of the base plate. Secure to the standoffs with
4-40 x 3/16 inch screws.
