WARNING !
Severe personal injury and property damage can result from improper installation or
assembly. Read the following warnings before beginning
Do not use this product for any purpose not explicitly specified by GPO Display. Improper installation may cause property
damage or personal injury. If you do not understand these directions, or have doubts about the safety of the installation,
contact GPO Display tech support or call a qualified contractor. GPO Display is not liable for damage or injury caused by
incorrect mounting, assembly, or use.
If mounting to wood wall studs, make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the studs. Use of an "edge
to edge" stud finder is highly recommended.
Tighten screws firmly, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage or warp the items, greatly reducing their holding
power and negatively affecting display alignment.
This product is intended for indoor use only. Use of this product outdoors could lead to product failure and personal injury
For walls made of other materials, such as hollow bricks, please consult your installer and/or specialist

Chapter 1 Precautions
To ensure safety, please read this manual carefully prior to installation and follow the instructions
herein. Store this installation guide in a secure place for future reference.
The video wall must be installed on a flat and level surface which is strong enough to bear its weight.
Make sure mounting brackets are tightened and secured on the wall
The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel of the display has a very thin protective layer of coating which is susceptible to
marking or scratching, and cracking if struck or pressured. Please cover and protect the displays if there is construction
or other work being conducted at the installation site.
Transport and handle displays by holding the handles on the back of the display. Do not touch the LCD panel surface
directly to avoid possible scratches and backlight leakage
Leave a slight (≥0.5mm) gap between displays in order to protect your LCD screens from the damage through the direct
transfer of weight.

Notes on handling/transporting displays
LCD video wall monitors have limited mechanical strength. To prevent
performance failure caused by line defects, front bezel bending, panel
scratch/breakage, light leakage, etc., displays must be handled with care.
Always have at least two (2) adults supporting the display when
moving/carrying.
Retain the original shipping box and packaging in storage for use in the
future, when you may need to transport the product.
When placing the display face (panel side) down:
Prepare a flat, level, horizontal surface that is larger than the
display and spread a thick protective sheet/foam on it. (Fig. 1) –
Lay the display down gently and horizontally.
When you want to place the display in an upright position:
Lift the display up horizontally by holding the two (2) handles at the
top/rear with one hand per person and supporting the bottom bezel
with the remaining hand. Do not allow the display to rest/put
weight on bezel edges and corners (Fig. 2)
Be careful not to scratch any parts of the display when placing the
display upright. (Fig. 3)
Stand the display vertically to make sure the its weight spread
evenly throughout the bottom bezel. Do not rest on corners or lean
forward/back. (Fig.4)

Chapter 1 Precautions
GPO Display Video Walls - Commercial Monitors - Digital Signage - Visual Solutions www.gpodisplay.com
A minor gap between monitors is required
High temperatures can cause slight expansion of panels. If there is no space
between panels, damage may occur as a result of pressure resulting from the
expansion of adjacent panels into one another. Please ensure that there is a
≥ 0.5mm gap between the displays. This can easily be checked by sliding a standard
business card between the gap (if there is no resistance, the gap is sufficient)
*Recommended gap
between displays: ≥ 0.5mm
Do not tilt displays in a manner that would result in
pressure on the panel edges. If backlight leakage (as
shown below) is evident, this is a sign of excessive
pressure and adjustment to the alignment of the array
must take place.
If more than 1kg of weight is applied to the top bezel of a panel (as
illustrated to the right), backlight leakage will result. This is a sign that
the panel alignment/angle must be adjusted or other countermeasures
must be applied.

Best practices for maintaining long-term quality
Keep temperature within 32°F ~ 104°F (Mandatory)
Follow Ventilation requirements
Keep panel usage under 20 hours per day in order to extend the stability and performance of the panel to longer than what is shown on the product
specification table.
Avoid displaying static images for prolonged periods of time.
Avoid content with significant brightness differences.
Dimensions below are minimum required for proper ventilation and movement of displays within H-Mount structure
3”
2”
* Note:
Ventilation space must not be covered or closed off at the
front of the opening. If for some reason the opening
needs to be covered, other means of ventilation will need
to be incorporated into the design. Contact GPO Display
for design review and recommendations.

Structure for the installation
The structural design and construction for the display installation is the customer’s or its installer’s responsibility. GPO Display does not take
any responsibility on design or construction of installations. The minimum requirements for space, strength of the structure, electronic, heat
dissipation and environmental condition is described in this manual. If any further information or support is needed from GPO Display, please
contact us in advance to ensure ample time for support. We will be glad to help with any recommendations or information.
Call 510-659-9855 x1 or e-mail support@gpodisplay.com.
Power Requirements
Please refer to the specifications for power consumption of displays to be installed. Do not plug more than two units into a given receptacle
(example: all displays in 2x2 should not be plugged into quad receptacle. Using more than 70% of current on the AC circuit is strongly
discouraged. Clean AC power is required for “noiseless” screen images. Avoid damages inflicted by power glitches or surges- either a power
conditioner or surge protector is recommended. Contact your electric power specialist for consultation.
Heat Dissipation Requirements
The range of LCD operational conditions are:
Temperature: 32°F ~104°F Humidity : 20 ~ 80%
-Consult with the display user manual for BTU ratings.

See the image to the right for recommended position of recessed power
outlets (B is the ideal location for power outlets for 46-49” models).
Outlets which are level with the surrounding wall surface may lead to
obstruction of the side-to-side movement of displays within the mount
structure. Position A is the ideal position for any third-party devices
(receivers, decoders, media players, etc.). There is ~2” depth to work with
on both sides (positions A & C).
Recommend recessed power outlet positions: B : 46” & 49”,

B
1. Construct the reinforcement frame to match
specifications set forth by GPO Display
2. Continue constructing the reinforcement frame, adding
cross bar supports where necessary
3. Affix Z-Shift wall mounts to reinforcement frame as
shown in the image to the right. Be sure to bolt the Z-Shift
mounts to one another using the M8 bolts provided by GPO
Display. Be sure to use uniform torque when doing so.

Plywood-Backed/Flat wall surface Installation (if applicable)
1. Affix ¾” plywood to the wall. Power outlets must be recessed.
Outlets which are level with the surrounding wall surface may lead
to obstruction of the side-to-side movement of the screens within
the Z-Shift mount structure.
When plywood backing is
used, ensure that there are
holes of sufficient size to
run all necessary cabling
.
3. Assemble the mounts (affix to one another using
interconnecting M8 bolts) and ensure that they are level, as
instructed previously in this manual.
2. Affix H-mounts in the manner shown in the image on the right,
following the steps set forth in previous pages of this manual
.
