Mount Hub on Wall
Simply screw two screws (INSTEON recommends using #6 drywall screws) through the marks in the drawing below (leaving the head of the screw about 1½ inches from the wall) and hang the Hub on the screws. You can then tear off this sheet.
A diagram shows the back of the INSTEON Hub with two mounting holes. It illustrates how to mount the Hub on a wall by screwing two screws into the wall, leaving the heads slightly protruding, and then hanging the Hub on these screws. Dimensions for screw placement are indicated as 166mm (6.534 inches) apart. A detail shows a screw head with a gap of approximately 6.35mm (0.25 inches) from the wall for proper mounting.
