C-RING INSTALLATION

Prepare ceiling using hole template. Remove any debris from around the hole. Hole diameter is 162 mm (6.38").
Note: This method can also be used with prewired nished
drywall ceilings (minimum 64 mm [2.5"] clearance above ceiling).
1. Insert C-RIng into hole above ceiling. Flex and rotate C-Ring up/in, if above-ceiling access isn't available.
2. With clamps rotated in, insert ush mount bracket into the ceiling. Remove any tape holding the clamps.
3. Clamp bracket onto the C-Ring by screwing (3) clamps down with a Phillips screwdriver. Ensure clamps are all positioned on the C-Ring before fully tightening.
4. Screw the adapter, washer, and conduit nut onto the TCM-X shaft, with or without the spacer depending on desired position in the ceiling. See next page for exploded views and images.
Note: The spacer and adapter both have notches that must
t onto the ribs on the top of the mic (see Alignment Detail).
5. Insert the assembled mic into the bracket, push up and rotate to lock into place.
Note: Make wiring connections to mic before inserting it in
nished drywall ceiling.
Finish installation per the Parlé TCM-X installation guide.

INSTALLATION WITH OPTIONAL TILE BRIDGE (TB-1)

Install tile bridge and prepared ceiling tile in the ceiling grid.
Note: Access to the tile bridge above the ceiling will be necessary to complete this installation.
1. Rotate the clamps in, and insert the bracket in the
hole. It must t in the tile bridge opening as shown in
the detail.
2. Tighten clamps with a Phillips head screwdriver. They should hold the bracket in place, but not deform the tile.
3. Insert the mic into the bracket and tile bridge. Secure the mic on the assembly with the octagonal strain relief washer and conduit nut. The adapter will not be used.
Notes:
1. Recessed mount option: place the spacer on the shaft (correct side up - tting onto ribs in the mic) before inserting the TCM-X in the bracket.
2. Place the washer with a at side against the upright of the
tile bridge. Do not block the access to the hole in the strain relief tab.
Finish installation per the Parlé TCM-X installation guide.
