Installing the P/2 DA2 WM F/EC F
Easy setup procedure
The wall-mounted P/2 DA2 WM F kit consists of the faceplate/
distribution amplifier assembly and a mounting bracket that
mounts in a wall opening and to which the faceplate assembly is
attached. The P/2 DA2 WM EC F kit consists of the faceplate/
distribution amplifier assembly that mounts in the Euro
Channel raceway.
For wall mounting only: Using the mounting template
1
provided in the appendix as a guide, carefully cut a
mounting hole through the wall where the mounting
bracket is to be installed.
For wall mounting only: Install the mud ring mounting
2
bracket using the supplied screws and mounting clips.
Refer to the section “Installing a mud ring bracket” for
further details.
Before connecting any cables, power off all equipment. If
3
the optional architectural adapter plate (AAP) is being
installed, please refer to “Installing architectural adapter
plates” in this chapter.
The rear connectors are the same for both WM F and WM
4
F EC models. Connect the VGA output cable to the 15-pin
HD female output connector. To prevent installation
debris or objects from entering the opening in the sheet
metal just above this VGA connector, use masking tape to
temporarily cover this opening. Remove this tape after
installation is completed. Next, if there is audio output,
connect the audio output cable to the captive screw
connector. Finally, connect the power cable to the power
input connector. Refer to the “Cabling” and “Connecting
audio” sections of this chapter.
Before attaching the faceplate assembly to the wall
5
mounting bracket/Euro Channel, attach the computer
video cable to the 15-pin HD female input connector on
the faceplate. Next, a local monitor may be connected to
the 15-pin HD female buffered local monitor output
connector on the faceplate. Finally, for audio input,
connect the audio cable to the faceplate’s 3.5 mm audio
input jack. Refer to the “Cabling” and “Connecting audio”
sections of this chapter. For Euro Channel applications,
refer to the “Euro Channel installation” section.

Installing the mud ring bracket
1.Once the proper wall location for mounting the
distribution amplifier has been determined, cut an opening
in the wall using the proper mounting template found in
the appendix.
2.Carefully cut away the mounting surface material inside
the traced template lines.
3.Test the fit of the mud ring. The doglegs should fit easily
into the hole and the flat portion should rest flush against
the wall. See the note in the following illustration.
4.Rotate all doglegs inward.
5.Insert the mud ring into the hole.
6.Tighten all of the dogleg screws until the doglegs clamp
the mud ring to the mounting surface. Do not
overtighten.
Standard mud rings only: If you are going to screw the
mud ring to the surface, rather than using the detachable
doglegs, mark the four surface mounting screw holes at
the corners of the mud ring.

Setting the internal jumpers
The jumpers (J2 and J6) inside the distribution amplifier are set
at the factory for output to a local monitor. However, you can
direct output to a data display by resetting the jumpers. Follow
these steps and the illustration below to change the jumper
settings. In some instances where DDC communication is
required between the display device and the computer’s
graphics card, pins 15 (J2) and 12 (J6) will carry that information.
CChanges to internal jumper settings must be
performed only by authorized service personnel.
1.Disconnect the power cable, then disconnect the output
and audio cables from the rear panel of the distribution
amplifier. Next, remove the rear cover by removing the
two front panel screws. See “P/2 DA2 F wall mount
installation” in this chapter for screw locations.
2.Using a pair of tweezers or needle-nosed pliers, set
jumpers J2 and J6, as shown below in figure 2-10.
CBe sure you are electrically grounded before
touching any circuit board components.
• Connect pins 1 and 2 on both jumpers (factory default)
to output to the 15-pin female local monitor connector
on the front panel.
or
• Connect pins 2 and 3 on both jumpers to output to the
rear 15-pin female output.
Installing the P/2 DA2 D
The P/2 DA2 D is a wall-mounted product and can be mounted
into an electrical wall box. These instructions include site
preparation, wall box installation, and the mounting of the
distribution amplifier in the wall box.
NThe P/2 DA2 D must be installed into an Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) approved electrical wall box. The box
is not included with the distribution amplifier; the
installer is responsible for obtaining/installing the box.
Preparing the site and installing the wall box
Choose a location that allows cable runs without interference.
Allow enough depth for both the wall box and the cables. You
may need to install the cables into the wall or conduits before
installing the distribution amplifier.
The distribution amplifier can be installed in a standard onegang electrical wall box. The installation must conform to
national and local electrical codes. A dimensional drawing and a
cutout template of the distribution amplifier are provided in
appendix A of this manual.
NThe cutout template of the P/2 DA2 D shown in
appendix A is not full size. Pay attention to the
measurements shown in the template.
1.Mark the guidelines for the opening on the wall.
• If the distribution amplifier will be installed in a wall
box, place the box against the installation surface and
draw a line on it around the outside of the box.

P/2 DA2 WM/EC/D/AAP Series • Controls and Installation
• If the distribution amplifier will be installed without a
wall box (fastening it directly to the wall), measure and
mark the surface for the cutout area indicated in the
cutout template.
2.Cut out the material from the marked area.
3.Check the opening size by inserting the wall box (if used)
or the distribution amplifier (if no box is used) into the
opening. Enlarge or smooth the edges of the opening if
needed.
4.Feed the cables through the wall box punch-out holes, and
secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.
5.Insert the wall box into the opening, and attach it to the
wall or stud using nails or screws. The front edge should
be flush with the outer wall surface. See the following
illustration.

Mounting the distribution amplifier
Before mounting the distribution amplifier and if it has not
already been tested, test the system to make sure that the
connections and settings are correct.
If the system is operating correctly, the distribution amplifier
can be installed in the wall. Adjust the gain and set the DIP
switches before fastening the distribution amplifier into the wall
box. The controls and cables will be inaccessible after
installation. See “Rear Panel Features and Operation” in this
chapter for details about settings and adjustments.
Continue mounting the distribution amplifier by following the
steps below.
1.Remove power from the distribution amplifier by
disconnecting the power supply.
2.Place the distribution amplifier through the opening in the
wall and into the wall box. Take care not to damage the
output cable(s), which fit behind the distribution amplifier
at the back of the wall box.
