DS Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Does anyone know if you HAVE to use the C4 recommended box for a retro MTS/LCD installation, or could I just pick up something compatible at my local hardware store?Thx,DS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 There is nothing from your local hardware store that will fit a mini-touch or 10-button LCD keypad. They're very deep, and about 3 gang sized, but it won't fit in a 3-gang remodel (or new work) box.A back box is required if you're hooking it up with high-voltage (110V). If you're doing PoE, you could probably mount it without a backbox (at least I do), but the device doesn't come with backbox tabs (ears).To clarify, I'm sure the Control4 official instructions say to always use a back box.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henniae Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The amount of work need to try to make a non-C4-box work is not worth the effort. Do yourself a favor and get the C4 box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
