Mounting the AP3917i/e to a Wall or Solid Surface

Note

The “H” type Mounting Bracket (WS-MBO-H01) is sold as a separate accessory (ordering part #30519).

1. Using the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the location for the mounting screws. The wall bracket provides eight attachment holes. Use four (one in each corner). Place the bracket and mark the four hole centers.
2. Drill four holes into the wall as follows:
   1. For installing the AP on a masonry wall, use a 5/16” diameter bit.
   2. For other materials, use the appropriate bit for the screws being used.
3. For masonry installations, drill at least 1/8” (3 mm) past the depth of the screw or bolt being used, and place four anchor assemblies into the holes.
4. Attach the AP to the “H” Bracket:
   

   
   1. Use four M4 screw assemblies to attach the AP to the “H” bracket on the side as shown.
   2. Tighten the four screws to a torque of 13.0-13.5 in-lbs.
5. Secure the anchors to the wall, then secure the bracket to the anchors. If you are attaching the bracket to anchors:
   1. Remove the nut and flat washer, if any from the threaded part of the anchors.
   2. Put the bracket over the threaded part of the anchors and up against the wall.
   3. Put a flat washer, then a split washer, and a hex nut on the exposed threaded part of the anchor.
   4. Torque it to about 60 in-lbs.
6. If using #10 screws, tighten them to a torque of 25 in-lbs. If using ¼” screws, tighten them to 45 in-lbs.
