Mounting the YCS 100
The YCS 100 can be set on a table; mounted on a rack shelf; 
mounted under a desk, podium, or table; or attached to a 
projector with one of the Extron projector mounting kits.

Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the YCS 100. 
For tabletop use, attach one foot at each corner on the bottom of 
the unit, and place the YCS in the desired location.

secure the unit to the shelf (see fi gures 2-1 and 2-2, on the 
next page, or fi gure 2-3 on page 2-4).
