Mounting

Table top

ZipaTile is primarily intended for on-wall mounting, but it can be used on table top as well. In this case, please keep the wall holder affixed to ZipaTile and use the built-in table top stand at the back of the wall holder. Just plug AC/DC adapter into free electrical socket and other side into the ZipaTile.

ZipaTile is made for on-wall usage. Table top stand may not be suitable for permanent usage since it can’t resist strong touch pressure.

If there is no in-wall box at desired mounting location, please use the wire channel at the back of the wall holder to place the power wires behind the ZipaTile and use the bundled plug-in power supply to connect to the wall socket.

Use safety goggles and gloves when drilling holes in the wall for screw anchors. This product should not be plugged in sockets that can be turned off with a switch.
