   Note: The IR receiver will be mounted as far back to the corner as space allows

3. Remove the mounting hardware from its packaging (necessary mounting hardware shown below)

   

4. Using toggle bolts, secure the mounting plate to the drop ceiling

   Note: If encountering hard ceiling, use anchors and screws (3/16")

   

5. Drill a small hole behind where the IR transmitter will be mounted for passing cables through

   

6. Run 22/2 cable to the IR T1.
7. Strip about an inch of white jacket off the 22/2, as well as about 1/2 inch of the colored jackets to expose the wire.
8. Cut a 3.5mm audio cable (approx 12") and strip the jackets to expose the wires
9. Splice the 3.5mm audio cable with the 22/2 with B-connectors.

   

10. Cover your splice with electrical tape.
11. Attach mount arm the IR reciever

    

12. Place the mount cover over the plate and twist the mounting arm until secure

    

13. Plug the 3.5 cable into the Line In of the IR T1 and connect the power cable

    

14. Return the ceiling tile to it's appropriate location

    

15. Once audio is plugged in, locate your nearest power outlet to power the IR T1.

    Note: The IR transmitter is powered by a standard 5v USB phone style charger that needs a regular wall outlet, or a connection to a POE line with a POE splitter to power it. 18/2 cable may be needed to add length to the power cable. Ensure that when splicing in the 18/2 to the power, that the red jacket of the 18/2 is spliced into the cable with the dashed white lines on the power supply.

1. Ensure your IR T1 and RX224 are set to the same channel.
2. Test the talkback unit is working by activating the talkback function within the VALT Software and having a partner to communicate with.
