ABOUT YOUR TNP100UN
2
The TNP100UN is designed for installation into a
conference room table. The Tilt ‘N Plug™
Interconnect Box (TNP100UN) provides a means of
connecting audio, video, control, and computer video
sources into a presentation system. It is ideal for use
together with ALTINEX computer video interfaces.
The Tilt ‘N Plug™ Interconnect Box can either pop up
and “tilt” to a raised position to provide access to the
connectors or it can be lowered into a table when not
in use. A pneumatic shock inside the TNP100UN’s
tower type construction applies pressure to the panel
mechanism, making it easy to raise and secure the
unit firmly in an open position. Also, for safety, the
chassis of the TNP100UN is connected to the ground
pin of the power plug.

Step 1. Cut an opening into the table’s surface.
Refer to diagram 5 on page 8 of the
manual for table cutout requirements.
Note: The table can be 3 inches or thinner
in thickness. Always confirm dimensions
before cutting to insure that specifications
have not changed.
Step 2. Insert the TNP100UN into the opening in
the table.
Step 6. Once you have applied power and
connected the proper cables on the bottom
of the unit, you may raise the unit. To raise
the TNP100UN into position, lift the top by
pulling upward at the notch in the top plate.
Step 3. Place the support brackets under the table
and place them between the support
mount grooves on the side of the
TNP100UN unit. Attach the brackets to the
groove at the desired height and secure
them to the bottom of the table using the 6-
32 nut. There are two support brackets,
one for each side of the unit. (See Figure
1)
Step 7. To lower the unit, push on the top of the
TNP100UN until it fits into place.
For more information, please refer to the FAQ
Section or the Troubleshooting Guide.

Step 4. Secure the cables by using the provided
cable clamp (See Figure 2). Pass the
power cord from the bottom of the housing
and attach it to the table using the cable
clamp supplied with the TNP100UN unit.
Do not keep the cord too tight or too loose
(See Diagram 4, page 7).
