(OPTIONAL) MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The R510 can be mounted to a T-bar, wall or ceiling a using the enclosed mounting kits. Refer to the following sections:
•Mounting on a Flat Surface
•Mounting on a Recessed Drop-Ceiling T-Bar
•Mounting on a Flush Drop-Ceiling T-Bar
•Mounting on a Truss or Pole
Mounting on a Flat Surface
1Use the Mounting Template on the last page of this Quick Setup Guide as a template to mark the locations for drill holes on the mounting surface. There are two sets of keyholes available on the AP. One allows the AP to be mounted to a wall or ceiling. The other allows the R510 to be mounted to an accessory bracket (not included).
2Use a 5mm drill bit to drill holes approximately 25mm into the mounting surface (A in Figure 3).
3Insert the anchors and mounting screws into the mounting surface, leaving approximately 1/4” (6 mm) of the screw heads protruding for the AP enclosure.
4Insert the unit removal pin into the hole on the side of the AP to release the locking mechanism (B in Figure 3).
5Place the AP onto the mounting screws so that the screw heads enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and push the AP down to lock in place.
6Remove the unit removal pin to release the locking mechanism and secure the AP.
7To remove the AP, insert the unit removal pin into the hole on the side of the AP to unlock, then push the AP up to release the AP enclosure from the mounting screws.
