• The iDock Basic is designed for indoor use only. D o not use
the iDock Basic outside or in a humid or wet environment. It is
not waterproof or water-resistant.

Unpacking and installation
iRoom’s iDock Basic has a glossy surface. So it ’s sensitive to getting scratched. To avoid damage handle all equipment with care.
Do not use liquids for cleaning. Use soft cotton gloves during
installation.
Unpacking and rst steps
1. Unpack the frame. Handle with care (glossy surface)!
2. Remove the protection lms from the double-sided tape.
3. Attach the frame to the iDock Basic.
Removal of the frame
Remove the frame by using the plastic scraper carefully. Attach
the plastic scraper below the frame and use the scraper to lever
out the frame smoothly.
Installation of the back-box and the iDock Basic
NOTE: The back-box is not included in this box; it has to be ordered separately. The back-box has four knockouts (2 x 25 mm +
2 x 20 mm) and four lockdown wings attached to the box with
Phillips-head screws (PH1). Install the back-box carefully to prevent damage to the device and its surrounding area.
1. Cut a hole into the wall or surface intended to hold the back-
box (H/W/D: 295/205/70)
Optional external switch operation
Delivery condition (Fig. 2): Jumper plugged = proximity switch operation enabled, external contact operation disabled.
For external operation remove the jumper and replace it by connecting an
external potential free switch (closing contact / e.g. key switch, etc.). If the impulse (0.5 < time < 5 sec) of the external switch is detected (closing edge) the
docking slot automatically opens. The docking slot will remain in the removalposition for 10 seconds – afterwards the slot will be closed automatically. During this operation mode the proximity switch is disabled.
