Thank you for purchasing NEXCOM’s industrial-grade VMD 1000, the sunlight readable touch screen LVDS display panel designed to be the ultimate
interactive display monitor for your VTC series, unleashing the multimedia
capabilities of your VTC series.
The VMD 1000 connects to the VTC series with a special LVDS cable that
integrates LVDS signals, USB connection, and power supply, all in one rugged, easy-to-connect cable. With this connection made, VMD 1000 acts as
a remote power switch of VTC series (thanks to its power on/off button).
Additionally, it has built-in USB ports, audio/mic inputs and outputs, 2 audio speakers onboard for built-in stereo sound, available automatic brightness adjustment (controlled by an onboard light sensor), and much more.
The specially designed touch screen, which is readable even under bright
sunlight, makes it easy to use many functions of the VTC series. Moreover,
the front panel is IP54-compliant, which means that it is dust protected
and water-splash resistant. Furthermore, the 4 rubber protectors can be
installed on the 4 corners as protection cushions.

products and services, which are compliant with European Union RoHS (Restriction on Use of Hazardous
Substance in Electronic Equipment) directive 2002/95/
EU, to be your trusted green partner and to protect
our environment.
RoHS restricts the use of Lead (Pb) < 0.1% or 1,000ppm, Mercury (Hg)
< 0.1% or 1,000ppm, Cadmium (Cd) < 0.01% or 100ppm, Hexavalent
Chromium (Cr6+) < 0.1% or 1,000ppm, Polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) <

Installation Recommendations
Ensure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can
get into components and cause a malfunction. Use containers to keep
small components separated.
Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally
damaging the internal components. Most of the procedures that follow
require only a few simple tools, including the following:
▪ A Philips screwdriver▪ A flat-tipped screwdriver▪ A grounding strap▪ An anti-static pad
Using your fingers can disconnect most of the connections. It is recommended that you do not use needlenose pliers to disconnect connections
as these can damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
Handling Precautions
▪ Always disconnect the unit from the power outlet whenever you are
installing or fixing a component inside the chassis.
▪ If possible, always wear a grounded wrist strap when you are installing
or fixing a component inside the chassis. Alternatively, discharge any
static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or
the bare metal body of any other grounded appliance.
▪ Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the
components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or
stress the circuit board.
▪ Use the correct screws and do not overly tighten them.▪ Keep the original packaging and static-protective bag in case the unit
NEXCOM manufactures products that are new or equivalent to new in
accordance with industry standard. NEXCOM warrants that products will
be free from defect in material and workmanship for 24 months beginning
on the date of invoice by NEXCOM. HCP series products (Blade Server)
which are manufactured by NEXCOM are covered by a three year warranty
period.
