7. Extend the locking tabs on the sides of the back box by tightening the screws inside the box.
Not all of the tabs must be extended to lock the back box in place, but extending a minimum of the
top and bottom tabs is highly recommended.
Apply enough pressure to the screw head to keep the box flush with the wall: this ensures that the
locking tabs will tighten up against the inside of the wall.
The back box is clear to allow visual confirmation that the tabs have been extended and are gripping
the wall. This also allows visual confirmation that the tabs have been retracted away from the wall
if the entire assembly has to be removed from the wall for any reason.
8. Attach the capacitive touch connector to the10-pin plug on the faceplate.
9. Place the faceplate back onto the main device.
10. Reconnect the terminal Ethernet and USB to their respective locations on the Ethernet port and NetLinx
Master.
Installing the NXD-430 and NXD-435 into Drywall
The NXD-430 and NXD-435 come with a clear plastic backbox (FIG. 9) designed to attach the panel to
standard drywall.
This backbox has a locking tab on three of the four faces (missing only on the face containing the
space for the connections) to help lock the backbox to the wall.
These locking tabs are only extended AFTER the backbox is inserted into the wall.
Refer to the diagram for detailed installation dimensions as shown in FIG. 10.
Cutting out the surface slightly smaller than what is outlined in the installation drawings, in order to
make any necessary cutout adjustments, is highly recommended.
Do not disconnect the connectors from the touch panel. The unit must be installed
with the attached connectors before being inserted into the Rough-In Box.
The maximum recommended torque to screw in the locking tabs on the back box is
5 IN-LB [56 N-CM].
Applying excessive torque while tightening the locking tab screws, such as with
powered screwdrivers, can strip out the tabs or damage the back box.

When installing the backbox, make absolutely sure that the assembly is in the correct
position and in the correct place.
Once the locking tabs are extended and locked into place, removing the backbox is
possible, but it will be very difficult without having access to the back of the wall itself
or damaging the wall.
