Installation

The following instructions describe installing the HPX-N102-USB-PC into HydraPort
HPX-600/900/1200/1600 and HydraPort Touch (7”/10”) Connection Ports.

For instructions on installing modules into the HPX-1600 Retractable Connection Port
(US and International versions), refer to the HPX-1600 Installation Manual - available to
view or download from www.amx.com.

Caution: Only use a manual screwdriver for the mounting instructions in this document.
Over-tightening the screws can hinder performance or damage the product.

1. Existing HydraPort Installations

For new HydraPort installations, skip to Step 2.
For existing HydraPort installations, the HydraPort Base Assembly must be un-mounted

from the surface before the HPX-N102-USB-PC module can be installed:

1. Cut/remove any cable ties that would restrict the removal of the HydraPort Base
Assembly.

2. Loosen the four mounting screws (located inside and at each end of the
HydraPort base assembly), in order to rotate the retaining tabs from under the
mounting surface.

Note that when the cover of the HydraPort base is open, only two of these screws
are visible. To access the other two mounting screws, tip the cover over to the
opposite open position (see FIG. 3).
