The mounting hardware required to install the AP-5131 above a ceiling consists of:

Light pipe

Badge for light pipe

Decal for badge

Safety wire (strongly recommended)

Security cable (optional)

To install the AP-5131 above a ceiling:

1.

If possible, remove the adjacent ceiling tile from its frame and place it aside.

2.

Install a safety wire, between 1.5mm (.06in.) and 2.5mm (.10in.) in diameter, in the ceiling
space.

3.

If required, install and attach a security cable to the AP-5131’s lock port.

4.

Mark a point on the finished side of the tile where the light pipe is to be located.

5.

Create a light pipe path hole in the target position on the ceiling tile.

6.

Use a drill to make a hole in the tile the approximate size of the AP-5131 LED light pipe.

7.

Remove the light pipe’s rubber stopper before installing the light pipe.

8.

Connect the light pipe to the bottom of the AP-5131. Align the tabs and rotate approximately
90 degrees. Do not over tighten

CAUTION Symbol does not recommend mounting the AP-5131 directly to any

suspended ceiling tile with a thickness less than 12.7mm (0.5in.) or a
suspended ceiling tile with an unsupported span greater than 660mm
(26in.). Symbol strongly recommends fitting the AP-5131 with a safety
wire suitable for supporting the weight of the device. The safety wire
should be a standard ceiling suspension cable or equivalent steel wire
between 1.59mm (.062in.) and 2.5mm (.10in.) in diameter.

CAUTION Symbol recommends care be taken not to damage the finished surface

of the ceiling tile when creating the light pipe hole and installing the
light pipe.
