Assembling and Pretesting the Faceplates
The faceplates and optional AAPs must be installed, cabled, and pretested before
the faceplates are mounted into the floor box.
1. Unpack the AKM UK faceplates and AAPs.
• Each faceplate has two screws: a small (#4-40 x 5/16" Phillips pan head)
machine screw and a larger (#6-32 x 1/2" Phillips pan head) self-tapping
screw. Save these screws for the “Mounting Faceplates in the Floor Box”
procedure.
• Each AAP has four #4-40 nuts and captive washers used to secure the
AAP to a faceplate. These nuts will be used in step 2 of this procedure.
2. Attach AAPs to the faceplates.
a. Insert the mounted screws on the back of the AAP through holes on the
faceplate.
b. Secure the AAP to the faceplate using the #4-40 nuts and captive washers
provided with the AAP.
c. Repeat this step until all AAPs have been installed.
3. Set the gain and any switches on the the interface and other devices built into
or attached to the faceplates. Refer to the RGB 400xi Series User’s Manual (part
number 68-542-01), the Extender Series User’s Manual (part number 68-552-01),
or the appropriate manual for the devices being installed.
4. Connect cables to each faceplate.
a. Orient each faceplate for proper insertion into the floor box. The faceplate
flange with the large hole must be oriented toward the side of the floor
box with the smaller (self-tapping) screw holes. (Refer also to the
installation figure on the next page.)
b. Connect video, audio, and power cables to each device as explained in
the documentation that accompanied the device.
5. Connect all output device, interface, and computer power cords and then turn
on all devices.
All devices should have power, and the audio and video should be working
properly. If not, check all cabling and switch settings, and make adjustments
as necessary.
