10 The AC input is protected by a 5A slow blow fuse located in the AC inlet module.
The fuse is replaceable and the recommended fuse is Schurter part number
0034.3124.
11 Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12 Unplug all Planar UltraLux Series products during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
13 Ensure that the RUN/SVC switch on the control module is in the “Run” position
unless the display is being serviced. This will ensure that if one power supply fails
that the backlights will be reduced by 50% to save power.

Safety Information
14 You must follow all National Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware of
local codes and ordinances when installing your system.
15 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when any
of the Planar UltraLux Series displays have been damaged in any way, such as the
AC power cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into the display, or if the displays have been exposed to rain or moisture, do not
operate normally or have been dropped.
16 Keep the packing material in case the equipment should ever need to be
shipped.
17 Wall mounts must be secure. The wall must be strong enough to hold all displays,
mounts, brackets and cables.
18 Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure
will cause permanent damage. Planar UltraLux Series configurations should be
mounted in a way that viewers cannot insert small objects in the openings that
will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.

Safety Information
Planar UltraLux Series Installation Guide 13
Recommended Usage
Recommended Usage
The UltraLux series uses commercial grade LCD panels, and is designed for 24/7
operation. With certain static images and extreme conditions, a slight amount of
temporary image retention may occur. To minimize this possibility, it is
recommended that either static images be changed occasionally (for example to a
different screen layout, or a black screen), or that a periodic display shutdown be
programmed using RS232 commands or the UltraLux Remote Monitoring software.
In order to get the most out of your LCD modules, use the following recommended
guidelines to optimize the display.
Burn-In Versus Temporary Image Retention
Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way
to correct the problem. Under normal use, an LCD module will not experience burnin, as plasma displays do, nor will it retain images in any way.
Normal use of an LCD module is defined as displaying continuously changing video
patterns or images. However, LCD modules can experience temporary image
retention when recommended usage guidelines are not followed.
What is Temporary Image Retention?
Temporary image retention (TIR) can occur when a static image is displayed
continuously for extended periods of time. An electrical charge differential may build
up between the electrodes of the liquid crystal, which causes a negative-color video
image (color-inverted and brightness-inverted version of the previous image) to be
retained when a new image is displayed. This behavior is true for any LCD device
from any LCD manufacturer.
TIR is not covered under warranty. See standard warranty terms and conditions for
details. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid TIR:
• Use the LCD module to show a screen saver, moving images or still pictures that
change regularly. When using high-contrast images, reposition the images
frequently.
• Turn off the UltraLux Series when it is not in use. There are a couple of ways to
do this automatically. See "Powering On/Off Displays" on page 17 more
information. To use serial commands, see "RS232 Communication" on page 34.
14 Planar UltraLux Series Installation Guide
Normal Use Thermal Guidelines
Normal use of the LCD module and power supply module are defined as operating in
the open air to prevent heat buildup, and without direct or indirect heat sources such
as lighting fixtures, heating ducts, or direct sunlight that can cause the modules to
experience high operating temperatures. For all modules, do not block fans or
ventilation openings. If the LCD module will be installed in a recessed area with an
LCD surround or enclosure, ensure adequate openings are applied for proper air flow
and ventilation.
At 2000 meters or below, the maximum ambient operating temperature for the LCD
module cannot be above 104º F (40º C) and 35º C for 80” portrait, nor below the
minimum ambient operating temperature of (32º F) 0º C. If one of these conditions
exists, it is up to the installer to ensure that module placement is changed, thermal
shielding is provided and/or additional ventilation is provided to keep the display
within its nominal operating parameters.
Cooling Requirements
For optimal performance, active cooling by the installer should be planned for when
the ambient temperature anywhere in the display is predicted to be above the
specified ambient temperature for the display.
Recommended Usage
Using the Display in Flat Orientation
The UltraLux is not recommended for use in flat orientation for tabletop, floor, or
ceiling installations. LCD panels of this size are at risk of panel deflection, which can
cause cosmetic sagging, brightness uniformity issues, and a shortened life span.

Unpacking and Checking Accessories
Unpacking and Checking Accessories
The UltraLux includes the LCD and an accessory kit. A wall mount kit can be
purchased separately.
Note: Screws should be no less than 1/4” in diameter. You will need a minimum of eight
screws for the top mounting bracket and a minimum of four for the bottom kickstand
bracket. Additional screws may be needed depending on your installation.

Wall Mounting LCD
Using Planar Profile
Mount
Before installation, keep the following points in mind:
• These displays are heavy. Make sure that you have adequate studs to support
the weight of each display if installing on a wall.
• The UltraLux must be installed on a flat surface.
• Use supplied UltraLux mounting template for top and bottom bracket
installation.
• The wall mounts for a landscape and portrait installation look different.
However, the process to install them is exactly the same.
• The Planar Profile mount is not designed for tabletop installations.
20 Planar UltraLux Series Installation Guide
Installing an UltraLux Display on a Wall
Caution: For whatever structure is used to mount the display, be sure that it is sufficiently
engineered to handle the weight of the display. Also be sure to purchase the correct
hardware needed to support the display mounted to that structure.
1
Find the center point of the display on the wall where you intend to install it.

3 Use the provided template to determine the center points of the wall mounts.
The “V” notches are labeled “L” for a landscape display or “P” for a portrait display.
Use the appropriate “V” notch to align with the horizontal line drawn in the
previous step.

4 In the hole marked “Top” on the template, mark the center of the hole on the wall.
Note: If you are installing a landscape display and the template is too long, you can break the
template at the notch labeled “P.”
5
Let the template hang vertically so it is plumb, as the bottom hole in the template
determines where the bottom mount will be installed.
6 Screw the appropriate hardware into the bottom hole of the template that
corresponds with your display orientation.
7 Remove each screw and the template.

8 Line up the middle hole of the top wall mount with the screw hole drilled from
the template.
Note: This picture shows mounts for a landscape installation.
Tighten the screw into the mount.

10 Use a level to make sure the mount is level.
11 Then install additional screws as needed.
Note: Screws installed near the mount hooks provide the best support.
Install the center screw in the bottom mount and repeat steps 10-11 for any
12
additional screws that you want to install. Note that there are open mount
channels on the brackets. So you can install the screws wherever necessary along
those channels.
