Installation
The PMK-8X-DSW consists of a single metal plate, which fastens to the stud of a
framed wall prior to hanging drywall. Standard drywall nails or screws to attach the
PMK-8X-DSW are not supplied (length can vary).
The plate is designed to provide the necessary support for a single TPMC-8X-DSW
and touchpanel. It can mount to the right or left side of a stud. Confirm that the
PMK-8X-DSW is level before applying drywall. An opening with the dimensions
shown below must be made in the drywall. Refer to the following illustration for
exact cutout dimensions. Position the opening to expose the #06-32 tapped hole in
each corner.

CAUTION: Allow an air gap of at least 12 inches (30.48 cm) in the wall cavity
above and below the touchpanel for heat dissipation.
NOTE: The TPMC-8X-DSW may be attached to the PMK-8X-DSW using the four
included #06-32 x 1 ½” screws (two at each side). Refer to the illustration above for
drill bit size and screw hole locations.
Complete the installation by either installing the TPMC-8X-DSW and touchpanel,
leaving the hole open (if permitted by local building codes) or installing the supplied
cover plate with the included #06-32 x 1½” screws, as shown in the illustration on
the following page.

If too much of the mounting plate is exposed after the drywall is cut, you may need
to patch the area. Crestron provides the following accessories:
• TMK-8X-DSW (Doc. 6582) – for smaller repairs and to provide a smooth
edge at the opening. This option provides a finished appearance and is
preferred when wallpaper is hung.
• MMK-8X-DSW (Doc. 6581) – for larger repairs and to fill in larger
irregularities around the opening (requires plastering)
The manuals for the TMK-8X-DSW and MMK-8X-DSW are available from the
Crestron website.
