Introduction
The Planar® LookThru™ Transparent OLED Display showcases dynamic or interactive
information on a transparent surface glass. This display allows users to view what is
shown on a glass video screen while still being able to see through it. Designers can
overlay text, digital images, and video content onto physical objects or scenes that sit
behind the glass.
Truly See-Through Installations
The first-of-its-kind Planar LookThru is a self-emitting display that utilizes Organic Light
Emitting Diode (OLED) to eliminate the need for a backlight or enclosure, making it
possible to create truly see-through installations. The design offers virtually frameless
glass with up to 45 percent light transmissivity, creating clear, unobstructed views of
objects, scenes, or other digital screens behind the transparent display.
Flexible Design Options
Introduction
The Planar LookThru measures 55-inch in diagonal. It can be used in both portrait and
landscape modes, and can be table mounted, ceiling mounted, or built into custom
fixtures. It can also be tiled to create large, eye-catching video wall arrays.
Brilliant Picture Quality in a Large Viewing Size
The Planar Lookthru offers vibrant colors greater than 100 percent National Television
System Committee (NTSC) performance as well as wide viewing angles with no off-axis
contrast or brightness limitations. The display provides Full HD resolution that allows for
beautiful graphics and full-motion video.
High Durability
The Planar LookThru features the proprietary
Optics™ (ERO™) technology, which uses a protective optically-clear Corning® Gorilla®
Glass bonded to the front surface of the display. This high-durability surface can
withstand the rigors of high-traffic environments and interactive touch.
Source Compatibility
The Planar LookThru comes with standard digital inputs including HDMI and DisplayPort,
is fully controllable using RS-232, LAN, Crestron and other control systems, and is

4. Display Architecture
The two members of the Planar LookThru LO552 product family are described in this
section:
• LO552 Standard Model
• LO552-S Straight Mount Model
These two Planar LookThru models are
made up of three subcomponents:
• Display Glass
• Display Chassis
• Electronic box
The Standard Model of the Planar
LookThru LO552, pictured on the right, is
intended for use on a tabletop or attached
to a suitable surface, either upright as
shown, inverted (landscape mode) or sidemounted in portrait mode. Tiled installation
is also possible.
The Display Glass consists of two pieces
of 2 mm thick Corning Gorilla Glass and a
55-inch diagonal TAMOLED (Transparent
Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) panel. These components are optically
bonded together employing the proprietary Planar ERO process. Use of Planar ERO
results in a combination of optimum optical performance and ruggedness. The glass
assembly, featuring a front surface anti-reflective coating, is less than 8 mm thick. Bezel
dimensions on the left, right, and top side of the display glass is 6.9 mm.
The Display Glass should never be used as the main load-bearing element for mounting
or as a primary handle or principal support during transport.
The Display Glass is securely joined to the display where that attachment surface creates
the bottom bezel for the Planar LookThru LO552. That bezel width is 95 mm. The Display
Chassis also incorporates the five primary M6 mounting points. Leveling feet are installed
in three of these mounting points in the Planar LookThru LO552. The feet should be
-1380-00B

Tour of the Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Product Family
removed for a fixed mounting installation. No fewer than three of the primary mounting
holes are recommended to be used for any installation. The Display Chassis is the part of
the display to use as a primary handhold during transport and mounting.
There are five secondary M6 mounting points on the underside of the electronic box.
These should only be used together with the primary mounting points on the Display
Chassis, but never by themselves. A counter weight is attached to the underside of the
electronic box in the
Planar LookThru LO552. The counter weight also serves to create
an acceptable open space for ventilation on the underside of the display. Like the leveling
feet, it should be removed for a fixed mount installation, but provisions must be made for
the proper 5 mm inch spacing.
Note that the corners of the Display Chassis and the right side (viewed from the front) of
the electronic box are chamfered at a 45º angle, allowing a corner or right-angle
installation of Planar LookThru LO552 displays. This is a feature found in all the LO552
family of displays. The bottom view of a Planar LookThru LO552 in the figure below
illustrates the corner chamfers. The leveling feet and counterweight are also shown.
The backside of the electronic box also contains the controlling I/O for the display. This is
shown in the figure below. The power switch and power cord receptacle are centered on
the backside.
The keypad is described in detail in the “OSD Keypad” section on page 23. There are
four HDMI connectors consisting of two HDMI 2.0 compliant and two HDMI 1.4 compliant
inputs. Additionally, there is a DisplayPort 1.2 input and a corresponding DisplayPort
output. The RS-232 and LAN connectors are found on the right side of the electronic box
along with the jack for the remote sensor as well as USB-A and USB-B ports.

Tour of the Planar LookThru Transparent OLED Product Family
Note there is no fan in any of the Planar LookThru LO552 family of displays.
The Straight Mount Model, the Planar LookThru LO552-S, on
the right, is intended to allow mounting on a wall or partition
where space behind the Display Chassis is an issue. Like the
Standard Model, the Planar LookThru LO552-S can be used in
the tiled configuration. The Planar LookThru LO552-S differs
from the Standard Model in that the electronic box has been
relocated 90º downward compared to the Planar LookThru
LO552. It is functionally identical to the Planar LookThru
LO552. The Planar LookThru LO552-S can be mounted in
upright or inverted in landscape mode or in either orientation in
portrait mode. A corner installation of multiple LO552-S
displays is also possible.
Note that the Straight Mount Model is not intended for standalone use; it can only be
used when attached to a support structure.
The primary mounting points on the Display Chassis must be employed for attachment.
The secondary mounting points on the electronic box can also be used, but only along
with the primary points.

5.1 Accessories
Platform Cover
The perforations in the electronic box must not be covered
significantly in any way. Rather than placing items of interest on
the electronic box, we recommend the use of the Platform
Cover that consists of the sheet metal plate and support feet.
There are two magnetic feet that attach to the steel
components of the Display Chassis. The figure on the right
illustrates the use of the Platform Cover.
Tiling Hardware
The Tiling Hardware can be used in tiled installations, either for
flat or corner mounts. There are four tiling assemblies, all made
of up of an interlocking front and back component:

7. Environmental Considerations
• The Planar LookThru LO552 is intended for indoor use only.
• Displays should only be installed in an environment where the temperature and
humidity are kept within the proper use range. See the Environmental Specifications
on page 61.
• Planar LookThru LO552 displays should not be operated on a carpet that can stifle
ventilation through the perforations in the underside of the electronic box.
• Planar LookThru LO552 displays are not designed to be sunlight readable.
• Do not locate the displays in direct sunlight or where the Display Glass will be
exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light.
• The electronic box should not be located near heat sources or in an environment
where there is less than 0.47 inches (12 mm) of free space on all sides. Note that the
Display Glass and the Display Chassis do not rise in temperature much above
ambient during operation.
• For best use of the display transparency, make certain there is adequate illumination
in the space behind the screen so that items of interest can be viewed optimally
through the display. We recommend experimenting with the level and orientation of
the illumination.
Unpacking and Installing the Display
8. Installation Disclaimer
Proper installation of the display is the responsibility of the end customer. Failure to
follow the safety and installation instructions in this manual, Content Developer’s Guide
or Fabricator’s Guide, or any installation of the display in a manner not described in this
manual, Content Developer’s Guide or Fabricator’s Guide, may result in damage to the
display or unsafe conditions, which will not be covered by the product warranty.
9. Requirements for All Installations
Make sure the surface or structure where the display is to be mounted is capable of
supporting the weight of the display or displays to be used. Consult the “Specifications”
section on page 61 for weights and measures.
If the display is to be attached to a surface or structure, use the five M6 mounting points
in the Display Chassis as the primary attachment point. The mounting holes in the
electronic box employed can provide supplementary support but should not be used for
mounting by themselves. No fewer than three of primary mounting holes should be used
in any installation.
Make sure the Display Glass maintains a neutral position and is not loaded in any way.
The front Display Glass surfaces should be mounted straight and plumb, i.e.
perpendicular to the horizontal in all axes.

Unpacking and Installing the Display
For mounting a Planar LookThru LO552, the leveling feet and counterweight must be
removed. Using two people, we recommend carefully laying the Display Glass on a
suitable countertop with a soft surface with the electronic box perpendicular to the
counter. The leveling feet and counterweight can then be removed safely.
The perforations in the electronic box are a part of the thermal management system and
should never be covered or have any solid surface be located closer than what is defined
in the figure below. This keep-out restriction does not apply under or on top of the Display
Chassis.
We do not recommend that the Straight Mount Model be mounted where the weight of
the display is carried by the bottom surface of the electronic box.
