Package Handling

Danger! Failure to comply with the following results in death or serio u s injury.
• Do not drop the panel (even a short distance), or apply pressure to the sides of the bezel. The small size of the bezel, which enables minimal image-to-image gaps, means there is reduced protection of the LCD glass and components. Dropping the panel or applying unnecessary force to the sides of the bezel will result in permanent damage.
• To avoid serious injury and/or serious damage to the LCD panel, moving the panel requires at least two people. Hold the white handles on the shipping package when moving/ shipping.
• Extreme care must be taken when pushing the mounted display into its locked position. Always handle the display on the opposing corners of the frame to avoid direct contact with the LCD glass.
Notice. Failure to comply with the following may result in property damage.
• Due to the delicate nature of the display, we strongly recommend that you use the provided packing materials and secure the package onto a pallet during shipment.

• Make sure the power connector and any other cables are unplugged before moving the product. Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate injury.
To avoid damaging your LCD panel, follow these guidelines when handling or moving the panel:
• Always use the handles on the back of the LCD panel. Do not hold onto the frame when transporting.
• Two people are required when moving or raising the LCD panel. Use both hands, one positioned on the top handle and the other on the bottom handle.
• Hold and support the LCD panel at each side and keep at an even height above the ground.
• Do not twist or bend the panel.
• Use a cart to move several panels at one time.
• When the panel is sitting on a surface, do not tilt it more than 10° to avoid damaging the screen.

Cleaning

Notice. Failure to comply with the following may result in property damage.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning the LCD panel. Do not use a liquid, spray cleaners, or any abrasive cleaners to clean the LCD panel. Failure to comply may result in equipment damage.

Ventilation

If you are mounting the display in an enclosure, leave sufficient space on all sides between it and surrounding objects, as shown below. This allows heat to disperse, maintaining the proper operating temperature. For very thin installations, to mount the display close to a wall it may be necessary to remove the handles prior to installation.

Mounting the Display

You can mount the display on a wall. If you do decide to wall-mount the display, ensure that the wall-mount bracket is installed
according to the instructions included with it. The wall must be capable of supporting a redundant weight factor three (3) times the weight of the display, or be reinforced.
We recommend that this be done by a custom installation specialist.
Notice. Failure to comply with the following may result in property damage.
• Use only the approved wall-mount kit designed for your display.

Connections to the Display

Proceed as follows to connect the display to your video sources, external controller(s) – if present – and AC power.
When connecting your equipment:
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the correct signal cables for each source.

• For best performance and to minimize cable clutter, use high-quality cables that are only as long as necessary to connect two devices. (Don’t use a 20-foot cable when a 6-foot cable will suffice.)
• Ensure that the cables are securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on connectors that have them.

Connecting a Control System or PC

RS232 Connection
Use a straight-through RS232 cable with a 9-pin male connector to connect a PC or control/ automation system (if present) to the RS232 port on the display.
For more information about using this connection, refer to External Control on page 50.

Setting Up a Video Wall

Connecting video
To use Multi-Display Control commands, described on page 44, all displays in a video wall should receive the same video signal. This can be accomplished using an external video splitter (often referred to as a distribution amplifier), or you can use the display’s video output connector to daisy-chain monitors together.
When daisy-chaining video, note the followin g:
• The video output connectors are provided for convenience, to avoid using an external video splitter. They perform the same function as an external video splitter.
• Daisy-chaining displays using the video output connectors has limitations depending on the connector type.
• Daisy-chaining can be used in combination with an external video splitter if more displays are required.
Daisy-chaining video using VGA: To daisy-chain displays using VGA, connect the upstream video source to VGA In and connect the downstream display to VGA Out. A maximum of 4 displays can be daisy-chained using VGA.
Daisy-chaining video using D VI: To daisy-chain displays using DVI, connect the upstream video source to DVI 1 In and connect the downstream display to DVI 1 Out. A maximum of 6 displays can be daisy-chained using DVI.
Daisy-chaining video using Di sp layPo rt: To daisy-chain displays using DisplayPort, connect the upstream video source to DisplayPort In and connect the downstream display to DisplayPort Out. A maximum of 16 displays can be daisy-chained using DisplayPort.
