Crestron MMK-4000L & WMKM-4000L Mud Mount Kits
Mud Mount Kits: MMK-4000L &
WMKM-4000L
Description
Mud Mount Kits are the preferred mounting option for the Crestron Isys®
TPS-4000L series of lectern/wall-mounted video touchpanel when cutouts made in
the drywall for touchpanel installation are too large. These kits provide support for
additional plastering that can be applied to hide large irregularities in the touchpanel
cutout.
There are two Mud Mount Kits. The MMK-4000L is a pre-construction accessory.
Pre-construction refers to framed walls prior to hanging drywall. This accessory
must be used with either the Pre-Construction Mount Kit (PMK-4000L) or Back Box
Kit (BB-4000L).
The WMKM-4000L is a post-construction kit. Post-construction refers to framed
walls with drywall hung. This accessory is designed with a mounting plate so that it
can be placed anywhere on a wall without the support from a stud.
NOTE: If necessary, consult the latest revision of the TPS-4000L Operations Guide
(Doc. 6301) for a complete list of mounting options.
Supplied Hardware
The MMK-4000L consists of three parts. These parts produce an assembly that
attaches to the PMK-4000L or BB-4000L. The WMKM-4000L consists of the same
three parts that make up the MMK-4000L as well as one mounting plate. The
mounting plate is the part that provides the necessary support for post-construction
applications.

Installation
This section provides an installation procedure for each Mud Mount Kit. The
procedure for the MMK-4000L starts below and the “WMKM-4000L Procedure”
starts on page 5.
MMK-4000L Procedure
The procedure in this section provides the necessary steps for the assembly of the
MMK-4000L to either the PMK-4000L or BB-4000L. It is assumed that the
PMK-4000L or BB-4000L has been secured to the stud according to the procedures
in the latest revisions of their respective Installation Guides (Doc. 6304 and Doc.
6305, respectively). Also, it is assumed that drywall is in place and a rectangular
cutout for the touchpanel is made in the drywall (refer to the Drywall Cutout
dimensions on the previous page for cutout dimensions).
Complete the steps in the order provided. The only tools or materials required and
not supplied are a drywall saw or equivalent, four standard drywall screws, #2
Phillips screwdriver, a level, and tools/material to apply drywall joint compound.
NOTE: The illustrations in this procedure show the installation of the MMK-4000L
with the PMK-4000L. Even though the illustrations only show the PMK-4000L, they
are identical for the BB-4000L as well.
1. Pass a fastener plate through the opening and align its two center holes
with the top two pins on the PMK-4000L. Verify that the pins on the
fastener plate are not between the fastener plate and the PMK-4000L.
Refer to the illustration after this step for visual guidance.

2. Slide a push-on fastener over each pin of the PMK-4000L (or
BB-4000L) to loosely secure the fastener plate and the mounting plate.
Do not push the push-on fasteners all the way down onto the pins. Slide
them on enough to keep the fastener plate and mounting plate as one
fastener/mounting plate assembly.
3. Use the second fastener plate and repeat steps 1 and 2 using the lower
two PMK-4000L (or BB-4000L) pins.
NOTE: When installing into the PMK-4000L, verify that the 18 AWG bus wire
securing the cables for the touchpanel remain attached.
4. Verify that the drywall cutout meets the measurements specified on
page 2.
5. Insert the symmetrical mud ring plate into the opening, as shown in the
illustration after this step.

6. When the mud ring plate is in position, bend the top two flanges of the
plate upward and the bottom two flanges downward.
• If mounting into the PMK-4000L, bend the flanges
approximately 90 degrees.
• If mounting into the BB-4000L, bend the flanges back as far
as they can go.

Crestron MMK-4000L & WMKM-4000L Mud Mount Kits
7. Use four standard drywall screws (length should not exceed drywall
thickness by more than ½ inch) to secure the mud ring plate to the rest
of the assembly. The screws pass through the clearance holes in the
PMK-4000L (or BB-4000L) and are secured in the extruded holes of
the fastener plates.
8. Verify that the mud ring plate is level.
NOTE: Do not over tighten screws. Doing so may over-dimple or rip the mud ring
plate.
9. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and tighten the drywall screws by hand
so that they slightly dimple into the holes in the mud ring plate.
10. Apply drywall joint compound as needed to finish the cutout. Avoid
covering the four tapped mounting holes.
11. Run the necessary cables for the touchpanel and secure them behind the
drywall.
12. When dry, the TPS-4000L can be installed using the four tapped holes
in the PMK-4000L. Refer to the latest revision of the TPS-4000L
Operations Guide (Doc. 6301) for details.
WMKM-4000L Procedure
The procedure in this section provides the necessary steps for the assembly and
installation of the WMKM-4000L into a wall. Complete the steps in the order
provided. The only tools or materials required and not supplied are a drywall saw or
equivalent, a level, four standard drywall screws, #2 Phillips screwdriver, and
tools/material to apply drywall joint compound.
1. Insert the two pins on one fastener plate into the top two outer holes on
the mounting plate, as shown in the following illustration.

2. Slide a push-on fastener over each pin on the fastener plate to loosely
secure the fastener plate and the mounting plate. Do not push the push-
on fasteners all the way down onto the pins. Slide them on enough to
keep the fastener plate and mounting plate as one fastener/mounting
plate assembly.
3. Use the second fastener plate and repeat steps 1 and 2 using the lower
two PMK-4000L pins.
4. Locate an area on the wall that is free of miscellaneous wiring and
studs.
5. Make a small hole near the middle of the designated site; verify that the
location is suitable.
NOTE: Make the cutout as level as possible. The mounting plate allows for only
minor leveling adjustments.
6. Use the drywall saw or equivalent to produce a level, rectangular cutout
in the drywall as shown on page 2.
7. Insert the symmetrical mud ring plate into the opening, as shown in the
illustration after this step.

8. Carefully pass the fastener/mounting plate assembly through the
opening and rest the assembly against the interior surface of the
drywall. Verify that the fastener plates are between the mounting plate
and the drywall.

9. When the fastener/mounting plate assembly is in position, bend the top
two flanges of the mud ring upward (approximately 90 degrees) and the
bottom two flanges downward (approximately 90 degrees). Refer to the
illustration after this step.
NOTE: Fastener/mounting plate assembly will have slight play; this is normal. It
allows for minor adjustments to the TPS-4000L during installation.
Bend Flanges
10. Use four standard drywall screws (of adequate length) to secure the
plate to the fastener/mounting plate assembly. The screws pass through
the clearance holes in the plate and are secured in the extruded holes of
the fastener plates.
11. Verify that the plate is level before tightening.
NOTE: Do not over tighten screws. Doing so may over-dimple or rip the plate.
12. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver and tighten the drywall screws by hand
so that they slightly dimple into the holes in the mud ring plate.
13. Run the necessary cables for the touchpanel and secure them behind the
drywall.
14. Apply drywall joint compound as needed to finish the cutout. Avoid
covering the four tapped mounting holes.
15. When dry, the TPS-4000L can be installed using the four tapped holes
in the mounting plate. Refer to the latest revision of the TPS-4000L
Operations Guide (Doc. 6301) for details.
