Mounting the MCU

Mount the MCU using either of the following options:

Option 1 - Velcro Fastening on a Horizontal Surface

Option 2 - Flush-mounting

The following sections describe how to mount the MCU for both
of these options.

Option 1 - Velcro Fastening on a Horizontal Surface

1. Choose a location based upon the guidelines in “Choosing

the Best Location for the MCU” on page 25.

2. Remove the four squares of Velcro fabric from the kitpack.

Clean the bottom of the housing with a mild detergent
and water to remove oils, etc. Peel the protective backing
from the squares and apply them to the bottom of the
housing at each of the four corners (see Figure 2-20).

Mounting the MCU with Velcro Attachments

3. Position the four Velcro hook disks where the MCU will

be mounted. Drill screw holes for the disks and secure in
place with the #4-24 screws supplied in the kitpack.

4. Press the MCU firmly into place so that the loop material

engages the hook disks.
