Drywall Surface upgrade installation
1. Carefully remove the attached AMX faceplate/bezel (A in FIG. 16) from the main AXD unit
(B in FIG. 16) by gripping the faceplate from the notches (located along the underside of the
plate) and pulling with gentle force.
2. Locate the 2 drywall screws located along both sides of the AXD unit.
3. Use a grounded Phillips screwdriver to slightly loosen the #6 drywall screws in a counter-
clockwise direction.
4. Unscrew the drywall screws enough to where there is a 0.125" gap between the edge of the
AXD housing and the drywall.
5. Install the foam insulation by inserting the left side of the foam between the drywall and the
rear of the housing.
6. While still holding the insulation, gently pull the other side of the foam over the opposite side
of the housing (FIG. 16) until the entire foam strip is now located behind the outer rim of the
AXD housing.
7. Verify the alignment of the center foam cutouts over the two side drywall screws (FIG. 16).
8. Carefully begin tighten the #6 drywall screws in a clockwise direction. Slight adjustments to
the position of the foam insulation can be necessary.
Expansion clips are mounted through pre-drilled notches located at the sides of the
panel. These clips are one-time use pieces. If and error occurs during the installation
process, a replacement clip must be ordered through your AMX representative.
The purpose of only slightly loosening the drywall screws is NOT to remove the unit
but to provide enough slack so that there is enough room between the AXD housing
and the drywall to wrap the foam insulation around the back of the housing for
insulation purposes.
