Crestron TMK-9L & WMKT-9L Trim Ring Mount Kits

Trim Ring Mount Kits: TMK-9L &
WMKT-9L

Description

Trim Ring Mount Kits are the preferred method of mounting the Crestron Isys®
TPMC-9L 9” Wall Mount Touchpanel when a finished appearance within a neatly
trimmed cutout is required. This application is perfect for wallpapering.

NOTE: If mounted into a material other than drywall (for example, wood lectern,
concrete or rock) use the cutout template, available in the post-construction kit
WMKT-9L. For concrete and rock mounting material, allow for proper ventilation
before mounting the touchpanel.

There are two Trim Ring Mount Kits. The TMK-9L is a pre-construction accessory.
Pre-construction refers to framed walls prior to hanging drywall. This accessory
must be used with either the Pre-Construction Wall Mount Kit (PMK-9L) or Wall
Mount Back Box (BB-9L), both sold separately.

The WMKT-9L is a post construction kit. Post-construction refers to framed walls
with drywall hung. This accessory is designed with a mounting plate so it can be
placed anywhere on a wall without the support of a stud. The mounting plate is also
ideal for installing the touchpanel in a lectern.

NOTE: If necessary, consult the latest version of the TPMC-9L Operations &
Installation Guide (Doc. 7030) for a complete list of mounting options. The
document is available from the Crestron

®

website (www.crestron.com/manuals).

Setup

Supplied Hardware

The TMK-9L consists of a metal trim ring that attaches to the BB-9L or PMK-9L.
The WMKT-9L consists of the trim ring found in the TMK-9L as well as a mounting
plate.

The mounting plate provides the necessary support for installation in a wall, lectern,
podium or similar flat surface. Two overlay cutout templates (4511894) are supplied.
One is in the shape of the required opening; the other is similar to a frame, with the
inner area of the frame the shape of the required opening. (Refer to the illustrations
on pages 2 and 3). Use the template that is most convenient.

The hardware supplied with the TMK-9L and WMKT-9L is listed in the following
table.

Installation

This section provides an installation procedure for each Trim Ring Mount Kit. The
“TMK-9L Procedure” starts below and the “WMKT-9L Procedure” starts on page 6.
Be sure to review each procedure before starting.

TMK-9L Procedure

This section provides the necessary steps for the assembly of the TMK-9L with
either the BB-9L or PMK-9L (both sold separately). It is assumed the BB-9L or
PMK-9L has been secured to the stud according to the instructions in the latest
revisions of their Installation Guides (Doc. 7031 and Doc. 7032 respectively). It is
also assumed that drywall is in place and a cutout is made in the drywall for
touchpanel installation.

Complete the steps in the order provided. The only tool required and not supplied is
a level.

CAUTION: Allow an air gap of at least 12 inches (305 mm) in the wall cavity
above and below the touchpanel for heat dissipation.

NOTE: The TMK-9L has been optimized for mounting in 5/8” (15 mm) drywall.

You may use 1/2” – 1 “ (13 mm – 25 mm) without issue. Thinner or thicker drywall
will cause issues with installation.

Crestron TMK-9L & WMKT-9L Trim Ring Mount Kits

NOTE: The illustrations in this procedure show the installation of the TMK-9L with
the PMK-9L. Even though the illustrations only show the PMK-9L, the procedure is
identical for the BB-9L.

NOTE: When installing into the PMK-9L, verify the 18 AWG bus wire securing the
cables for the touchpanel remains attached.

1. Verify the rectangular cutout in the drywall is as level as possible.

2. Insert the symmetrical trim ring into the opening, as shown in the following
illustration.

Insert Trim Ring into Opening

IMPORTANT
Please make drywall cutout as level and
clean as possible. The trim ring allows
only minor adjustments of the touchpanel.

NOTE: The required PMK-9L or BB-9L is not shown.

3. When the trim ring is in position, bend the top two flanges of the ring
upward and the bottom two flanges downward.

• If mounting into the PMK-9L, bend the flanges approximately 90

degrees.

• If mounting into the BB-9L, bend the flanges back as far as they can

go.

4. Run the necessary cables for the touchpanel and secure them behind the
drywall.

5. The TPMC-9L can be installed using the four tapped holes in the PMK-9L
or BB-9L. Refer to the latest revision of the TPMC-9L Operations &
Installation Guide (Doc. 7030) for details. Refer also to the comprehensive
illustration below.

WMKT-9L Procedure

This section provides the necessary steps for installation of the WMKT-9L into a
wall. Review the procedure and complete the steps in the order provided. The only
tools or materials required and not supplied are a drywall saw or equivalent and a
level.

CAUTION: Allow an air gap of at least 12 inches (305 mm) in the wall cavity
above and below the touchpanel for heat dissipation.

NOTE: The WMKT-9L has been optimized for mounting in 5/8” (15 mm) drywall.

You may use 1/2” – 1 “ (13 mm – 25 mm) without issue. Thinner or thicker drywall
will cause issues with installation.

1. Locate an area on the wall that is free of miscellaneous wiring and studs.

2. Make a small hole near the middle of the designated site and verify the
location is suitable.

NOTE: Make the cutout as level and smooth as possible. The mounting
plate allows for only minor leveling adjustments. If a larger cutout is made
accidentally, consider purchasing the Crestron Mud Mount Kit, MMK-9L.
Together with the mounting plate supplied with the WMKT-9L, it provides
a cost effective means of correction. Essentially, the combination of these
two kits makes up the Crestron Mud Mount Kit for the wall, WMKM-9L.
Simply follow the “WMKM-9L Procedure” in the latest version of the Mud
Mount Kits Installation Guide (Doc. 7033).

3. Use an appropriate saw and the provided cutout template to produce an
accurate and level cutout in the mounting surface.

4. Insert the trim ring into the opening, as shown in the illustration below.

5. Carefully pass the mounting plate through the opening and hold it against
the interior of the mounting surface.

6. When the mounting plate is in position, bend the top two flanges of the trim
ring upward (approximately 90 degrees) and the bottom two flanges
downward (approximately 90 degrees). Refer to the illustration on the
following page.

NOTE: The mounting plate will have a slight play. This is normal and allows for
minor adjustments to the touchpanel during installation.
