AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Ceiling Mount Options
You can mount the AP230 in either a square or diagonal mount on a dropped ceiling track. To mount in a
square position, use the built-in hardware on the back of the device to install it directly to the ceiling track.
For the diagonal position, first attach the diagonal mount bracket to the ceiling track and then install the
AP230 to the diagonal bracket in the same manner as you would attach it to the track directly for the
square position. Both methods are explained below. Figure 3 shows an AP in both diagonal mount and
square mount positions on a standard dropped ceiling track. Installation steps for both methods follow the
illustration.

the ceiling track and the clips click into place to secure the device.

track.
