3. Mount the switch on a wall (optional)
We recommend that you use the wall-mount screws that are included. The
screws are 0.12 in. (3 mm) in diameter, 0.78 in. (20 mm) in length.
1.
Locate the two mounting slots on the bottom panel of the switch.
2.
Mark and drill two holes 4.25 in. (108 mm) apart, center-to-center in the
wall where you want to mount the switch.
Use a 3/16” (4.7mm) drill bit.
The switch must be mounted horizontally with the ports on the bottom.
3.
Insert the supplied anchors into the wall and tighten the screws with a
No. 2 Phillips screwdriver.
Leave about 0.15 in. (4 mm) of each screw protruding from the wall to fit
into the holes on the bottom panel.
4.
Position the switch so that the mount holes are directly over the screws,
and slide the switch down until the upper edge of each mount hole sits
directly on the screw, attaching the switch securely to the wall.
