1. INTRODUCTION
Rosen’s Remote Display System consists of an ultra-thin remote display module (RDM) and a
high-definition (HD) remote electronics box. The remote electronics design provides more
mounting flexibility because the video processing electronics box can be located up to 50 feet from
the display. The high-definition display modules are available in a range of screen sizes and the
mounting options allow customers to configure a system that fits their aircraft’s cabin interior.
This manual provides general instructions about how to install all bulkhead configurations of the
Remote Display System onto your aircraft. It contains everything you need to know to wire the
components and confirm that the system is functioning correctly.
Note: Only trained and qualified personnel should perform installation and service.
1.1. System Overview
The Remote Monitor Electronics Box (RMEB) takes a video signal from various sources and
converts it to a serial format for distribution to a high-definition display. The RMEB operates one
Remote Display Module (RDM)—the RMEB 0700-107 Mod 02 is the latest model, which
replaces the RMEB 0700-104, and it operates all RDM sizes currently available from Rosen.

Mounting accessories: front bezel, cosmetic back, and credenza
Connector kits (sold separately) – see the technical drawings for specific P/Ns
For more information about a remote display system, please contact Rosen Sales or
Technical Support at 541.342.3802.
1.2.1. Remote Inputs
The RMEB provides 5V @100mA output to power an external IR receiver. The remote
monitors do not have a built-in IR sensor. The following options (sold separately) enable
remote inputs with the Remote Display System and adjust the on-screen display settings:
HD Monitor IR Kit (P/N 0500-023)
Universal remote control (contact Rosen Sales for P/N availability)
Alternatively, you can control the unit via a cabin management system using RS-485 or
RS-232. For a copy of the RS-232 External Controller Message Formats
(P/N 9002934) or RS485 Network Message Definitions document (P/N 9002933), please
contact Rosen Aviation Technical Support at 541.342.3802.
Note: For directions on operating the optional universal remote control, refer to the user’s
guide enclosed with the remote.
2. VIDEO INPUTS
The Rosen Remote Display System enables viewers to watch high-definition video as well as
standard-definition video. The remote electronics box supplies the following video inputs.
Two 3G HD-SDI inputs
Two Composite (CVBS)
Two DVI inputs (HDMI)
RGB & Component (YPbPr) - through the DVI connectors only
Accepts inputs up to 1080p, VGA-WUXGA
The RMEB connects to 28VDC aircraft power and receives video through a video distribution
amplifier or directly from video sources.

3. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
3.1. Mounting Configurations
Rosen’s RDMs can be flush mounted, mounted with a sleek bezel (semi-proud), or proudmounted between a bezel and cosmetic back. The photos below are representative of the
different bulkhead mounting options for the remote displays. Please contact Rosen Sales for
specific configurations.
Figure 2 Bulkhead mounting options for remote display modules
Flush mount – RDM only
Semi-proud mount – RDM with bezel
Proud mount – RDM with bezel and a cosmetic back
3.1.1. Bulkhead Mounting Requirements
The RMEB and RDMs do not require any external forced-air cooling.
A flush mounted RDM can mount from the back, through an interior wall, or from the front
mounting tabs. Proud-mounted RDMs must attach from the front into the cosmetic back.
Technical drawings are available on the Rosen website at www.rosenaviation.com to
assist in the installation process. Pay close attention to the dimensions when considering
installation requirements. Dimensions for some models may vary, so be sure to consult
the latest drawings.

4. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCESSORIES
This section provides instructions about how to assemble the cosmetic backs and bezels. To add
a stylish, proud-mount option, mount the cosmetic back to the bulkhead, attach the RDM to the
cosmetic back, and then snap on the bezel.
Note: Protect cosmetic and sensitive components from scratches, nicks, and debris during
hardware installation.
4.1. Mounting Cosmetic Backs to a Bulkhead
The cosmetic backs use two styles of mounting brackets depending on the size of RDM that you
install. The cosmetic backs are a universal fit—there is no top or bottom.
Technical drawings for the Remote Display System accessories are available on the Rosen
website at www.rosenaviation.com.
Attach the 19”, 22”, 24”, and 26” cosmetic back to the bulkhead using the four mounting brackets
and a minimum of four FHP screws (customer supplied) in the .188 mounting holes, as shown
below.

4.2. Attaching an RDM to a Cosmetic Back
Figure 5 shows an exploded view of a proud-mount assembly. Align the tabs on the RDM with the
mounting brackets on the cosmetic back. Secure with two 4-40 fasteners in each tab/bracket. The
number of mounting brackets varies by RDM size. For more dimensional information, see the
technical drawings for your specific assembly.

4.3. Mounting a Bezel
Mount the cosmetic back and monitor before attaching the bezel. To attach a bezel to an RDM,
align the mounting bosses with the monitor standoffs and gently press on the retaining clips to
snap the bezel into place.
Bezels attach around the perimeter of the RDMs with retention fasteners. The quantity and type
of bezel fasteners varies depending on the size of the bezel and RDM. Figure 6 shows the
different assembled retention fasteners on the bezels. See the 55” Bezel Drawing (P/N 5501-
900) for assembly instructions.

5. SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
The RDM receives power, control, and serialized video from the RMEB located up to 50 feet away,
as shown below. The RMEB outputs a serialized video signal via an RJ-45 cable from P4 and
provides conditioned power and control to the RDM via a harness with DA15 connectors from P3.
To obtain information about interconnect cables, please contact Rosen Aviation’s Technical
Support at 541.434.4512 and request the InterconnectCable Specification for Remote Electronics
(P/N 105821).

5.1. Pinout Connections
There are several ways to connect the remote display system to an aircraft’s entertainment
system.
Follow the pinout descriptions on the technical drawings to assist in completing the wiring
connections. Use the pinout information in the RS-485 Configuration Discretes table on the
technical drawing (P/N 0700-107-CD) when operating in Auto SDI mode.
Note: This display is for entertainment purposes only; connect to a non-critical power bus.
6. RS-232 AND RS-485 CONTROL INPUTS
Inputs that control the RDMs can come from an IR or via a cabin management system using
RS-232 or RS-485. The RMEB accepts the following commands:

Do not plug or unplug the display connector while power is
applied.
Removing power while the OSD is open could result in a factory
reset.
When cycling power, leave unit off for 20 seconds before restoring
power.
7. INITIAL POWER UP
Make sure that power is turned off and connect the following harnesses to the RMEB connectors:
1. Ensure low impedance ground connections on the RMEB housing and monitor
chassis grounding lugs.
2. Connect an external IR control or RS-232/RS-485 communication harness to P1.
3. Connect 28VDC power to P2.
Verify that the circuit breakers being used with the RMEB meet the power
requirements for the display size as stated in the RMEB technical drawing. Also,
avoid coiling the power wire as this can cause heat to build up in the wire. If you have
more questions about Power Requirements, contact Rosen Aviation’s Technical
Support at 541.434.4512.
4. Attach a DA15 interconnect cable to the RDM’s DA15 pigtail and connect to P3.
5. Attach an RJ-45 interconnect cable to the RDM’s RJ-45 pigtail and connect to P4. We
recommend grounding and strain relieving the harnesses on the RJ-45 connectors
using the brackets provided.
6. Connect the available video inputs.
7. Apply power and wait for a signal on the RDM. The default setting for the RMEB is
Auto On and the default source is SDI 1.
