6 Easy Steps to Fit Your 2N IP Style

1. Whether you prefer surface or flush mounted devices, the 2N IP Style is simple and easy to install. Simply attach the mounting bracket to the desired location or make a hole in the wall and install the 2N IP Style flush mounting bracket (sold separately).

2. Secure the bracket. For the flush mounted option make sure it is level with the wall by using the supplied levelling key to make fitting the 2N IP style that bit easier.

3. Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the bottom mount handle and secure in place.

4. Remove the connector cover on the back of the intercom and thread the desired cables through the bushing. Fit the required end pieces to the cabling.

5. Slot the IP Style onto the mounting bracket as far as it will go. Connect all the cables to the IP Style and reattach the connector cover.

6. Finally, push your newly fitted IP Style back up to the mounting bracket and pull down slightly fitting it into place. Make sure to lock your IP style into place with the screws located under the camera ledge.
