(OPTIONAL) MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONSThe R600 can be mounted to a T-bar, wall or ceiling a using the enclosed mounting kits. Refer to the following sections:•Mounting on a Flat Surface•Mounting on a Recessed Drop-Ceiling T-Bar•Mounting on a Flush Drop-Ceiling T-Bar•Mounting on a Truss or PoleMounting on a Flat Surface1Use the Mounting Template on the last page of this Quick Setup Guide as a template to mark the locations for drill holes on the mounting surface. There are two sets of keyholes available on the AP. One allows the AP to be mounted to a wall or ceiling. The other allows the R600 to be mounted to an accessory bracket (not included).2Use a 5mm drill bit to drill holes approximately 25mm into the mounting surface (A in Figure 3).3Insert the anchors and mounting screws into the mount-ing surface, leaving approximately 1/4” (6 mm) of the screw heads protruding for the AP enclosure. 4Insert the unit removal pin into the hole on the side of the AP to release the locking mechanism (B in Figure 3).5Place the AP onto the mounting screws so that the screw heads enter the mounting holes on the AP enclosure, and push the AP down to lock in place.6Remove the unit removal pin to release the locking mechanism and secure the AP.7To remove the AP, insert the unit removal pin into the hole on the side of the AP to unlock, then push the AP up to release the AP enclosure from the mounting screws.Figure 3.

On the menu, click Configuration > Internet. B. Click the Static IP option.C. Fill in the IP Address and Mask fields.D. Click Update Settings to save your changes.Note: If you will be using PoE, then you will need a Cat 5e (or better) Ethernet cable to connect the AP to the PoE injector or switch.AB

Attaching the external bracket to the AP2Position the studs on the bottom of the T-bar bracket (C in Figure 4) in the mounting holes on the R600 enclosure, and then slide the T-bar bracket until the studs are in the narrow parts of the R600 mounting keyholes (arrow).3Remove the unit removal pin (A in Figure 4) to engage the locking mechanism and secure the T-bar bracket to the R600.4Make sure that the locking tab (D in Figure 4) is in the first position on the T-bar bracket (C in Figure 4).5Gently push the ceiling tiles up and out of the way.6Position the T-bar bracket so its two clasps grip one edge of the T-bar (A in Figure 5). Make sure that both clasps are gripping the T-bar.Figure 5. Attaching the external bracket to the T-bar7Hold the R600 in place and gently push the locking tab (B in Figure 5) until its clasp grips the other edge of the T-bar.Removing an External Bracket from a T-Bar1Move the ceiling tiles out of the way.2Gently lift up the locking tab (A in Figure 6) by sliding your fingers under the tab. 3While lifting up on the locking tab, rotate the R600-and-T-bar bracket assembly (B in Figure 6). The R600-and-T-bar bracket assembly comes away from the T-bar.Figure 6. Removing the external bracket from the T-barRemoving an External Bracket from an AP1Insert the unit removal pin (A in Figure 7) into the hole on the side of the R600. 2Gently lift up the retainer tab (B in Figure 7). 3Gently push the T-bar bracket (C in Figure 7) until it detaches from the R600.Figure 7. Removing the external bracket from an APMounting on a Flush Drop-Ceiling T-Bar•Mounting an AP using the Integrated Bracket•Removing an AP Integrated Bracket from a T-BarMounting an AP using the Integrated Bracket1Orient the AP so that the T-bar is positioned between the T-bar clips as shown in Figure 8, then rotate the AP until the third T-bar clip catches the T-bar and the latch locks the T-bar in place (Figure 9).Figure 8. Attaching the integrated bracket to the T-barFigure 9. Locking the integrated bracket to the T-bar2Insert the Torx security screw into the hole near the latch to lock the AP in place.Removing an AP Integrated Bracket from a T-Bar1To remove the AP from a T-bar, first remove the security screw, then depress the latch while rotating the AP so that the T-bar clips disengage the T-bar.Mounting on a Truss or Pole1Feed the customer-supplied cable ties through the two slots on the back of the R600.2Fasten the R600 to the truss or pole using the cable ties.Note: This mounting bracket can also be used on a flush drop-ceiling T-bar, so the four rubber feet on the bottom of the AP minimize ceiling tile displacement.ABCDABCAUTION: Make sure that all three clasps are gripping the T-bar!
