Selecting an Installation Location
The Control Mount is designed for use in normal interior
environments. When selecting location for the Control Mount,
please consider the following:
• Do not use the Control Mount outside or in a humid or wet
environment. It is not waterproof or water-resistant.

Installation Preparation
The Control Mount features an integral Roto-Lock®mounting
system for quick mounting directly into existing walls. Once the
hole is cut and the cables have been run, you can install the
Control Mount into the wall in a matter of seconds.
1. Determine the location for the Control Mount and the wall
plate.
2. Perform an obstruction survey to ensure there are no studs,
conduit, pipes, heating ducts, or air returns that will interfere
with the Control Mount.
3. Find the cut-out template provided in the Control Mount
packaging. Place in appropriate location between wall studs.
Verify there are no horizontal re blocks with-in cut out area.
Place level on template to assure a level opening. Position the
template where the Control Mount is to be located and pencil
an outline on the wall.
NOTE: If you are unsure about obstructions, drill a small hole
in the center of the outline and insert a coat hanger wire into
the hole to feel around for possible obstructions.
4. Cut the opening using a drywall saw.
5. After cutting the opening, make sure the edges of the opening
are smooth so the frame ange will rest at against wall.
iPort Connection and Installation
See Figure 3
1. Before making connections, run a length of power wire
through the wall from the Control Mount location to the
power wall plate location, as shown in Figure 3. The wall plate
can be located up to 200 feet from the control mount. We
recommend 18 AWG 2 conductor wire which can provide
power over distances up to 200 ft. (CAT wire may be used if
using all 8 conductors, dividing into 2 groups of 4 conductors
which will provide power up to 120 feet. Remove the RJ-45 on
both ends to group conductors together).
2. Terminate conductors on the power wire into the 2-pin
Phoenix Connector on the Charging Circuit Board.
3. Terminate conductors on the power cable into the 2-pin
Phoenix Connector on the back of the Wall Plate. Wall Plate
can be screwed directly into a wall, drywall will need to be
cut to allow power cable to exit the wall and for the Wall Plate
PCB to recess into the wall.
4. Plug in the Control Mount power supply to the front of the wall
plate. Plug in the other side of the power supply to a power
receptacle.

5. Prior to placing the mounting frame into the wall, pull a sufcient
length of the wire through the wire opening in the side of the
mounting frame, as shown in gure 4.
Note: Tie a knot in the wire to allow the wire to catch on the
mounting frame to avoid falling into the wall cavity.
6. Insert the Control Mount mounting frame into the opening in
the wall.
7. Hand-tighten the four Roto-Lock screws on the Control Mount’s
mounting frame as shown in Figure 5. The Roto-Lock clamps
will automatically rotate into position behind the wall and begin
clamping the mount.
• When you notice resistance on the four screws, the Control
Mount has been clamped successfully.
IMPORTANT: NEVER over-tighten the Roto-Lock screws.
8. Mount iPad to the bezel by placing iPad into nesting area on
rear of bezel and attach metal retainer with ten (10) machine
screws and washers as shown in gure 6 with the #1 Phillips
screwdriver.

9. Attach safety lanyard on top center screw of retainer assembly
as shown in gure 7 (on the following page).
10. Install the charging circuit board assembly components onto
the Control Mount retainer:
1
Begin installation of the Charging Circuit Board Assembly
after installing the Fit Kit (provided with CM-IW2000
V2 for use with iPad 2 or later), and after installing iPad
between the retainer and bezel. Place the iPad assembly
“face down” to reveal the retainer (silver substrate).
2
Place the Metal Bracket (C) onto the retainer as
shown. Crimp Apple Connector Cable (Lightning or
30 Pin) to (C) using the bracket provided on (C).
Note: Apple Connector Cable not included. Use the
cable provided with iPad.

Removal
1. Ensure that the Control Mount bezel is not bonded with the wall
paint. If it has, gently place a plastic putty knife under the frame
on all sides to ensure the frame doesn’t peel the wall paint
while being removed.
2. Attach the iPort suction cup removal tool (gure 10) to the
UPPER left or right corner of the iPad touch screen.
3. Carefully pull the iPad away from the wall. The iPad and
mounting assembly will detach from the wall. Disconnect the
Power Wire.
4. Detach the safety lanyard from the back of the iPad mounting
assembly.
5. Place the iPad mounting assembly facedown on a clean,
smooth surface and remove the remaining machine screws.
6. Carefully separate the iPad from the mounting assembly.
Reserve the machine screws in a safe location. The screws are
needed for re-installation.

Painting the bezel
iPort bezels are shipped from the factory with a standard
finish. The instructions below can be used as guidelines to
achieve a custom finish.
A light coat of paint to match the surrounding wall is
recommended. A light coat will allow the bezel to maintain
all proper tolerances and ensure precision fit. Do not roll or
brush paint onto the bezel.
1. Apply a light coat of XIM Primer/Bonder (or similar) to the
bezel. Carefully follow the directions on the can. NOTE: Match
the primer type to the specied paint.
2. As many of the bezels are used on a daily basis, it is
recommended to use a lacquer, oil or polyurethane based
paint which will provide greater durability. If a water based
paint is used, it is recommended to add a clear coat to protect
the nish and improve durability, sand as necessary to adjust
gloss level.
3. Thin the paint to the proper ratio for the application method
and paint manufacturers recommendations and standard
industry practices. Strain the paint through a standard mesh
strainer to remove any lumps.
11. Remove thumbscrew from the interior of metal frame, install
though eyelet at the end of cable lanyard , and fasten lanyard to
central hole at top of metal frame.
Final Adjustment
1. Mounting frame is supplied with a preset height setting. The
preset adjustment will likely result with a space between the
bezel and the wall surface. To adjust the height setting, turn
screws clockwise, one turn at a time, until bezel ts snugly
against the wall as shown in gure 9.
2. Insert assembly into frame and adjust until desired results are
accomplished.
3. Plug the included DC power supply into the Power connector
on the wall plate and into a wall outlet, as shown in Figure 3.

Operation
Once installed, the iPad is now fully functional. The iPort Control
Mount features a button to control the Power functionality. To
activate the Power function, press the button as noted in gure 11.
The operation of the iPad touch screen to choose applications,
music, email or internet remains the same.

4. Using a small touch-up gun or cap spray gun, with a #3 tip for
painting, set the nozzle with a medium to wide fan, and set the
pressure regulator to 60 psi.
5. Lightly spray the front of the bezel in three quick strokes, from
approximately 10 inches away.
6. Paint at a slight angle (approximately 45 degrees) to ensure
that the paint covers the sidewalls of the bezel. Only a very
light coat of paint is needed on the surface.

the painting process for all sides.
