This customer display consists of three pieces: the display unit, support pillar, and base stand.
For the base stand, two choices are available: a surface-mount stand that can be moved freely,
and a xed-mount stand that is screwed onto a table or the like.
To bring the display unit to an appropriate viewing height, the supplied support pillars can be
combined to attain four different heights.

3) Insert support pillar C into support pillar A until it clicks into place.
4) Insert support pillar C into the surface-mount stand until it clicks into place.
Support pillar A
Support pillar BSupport pillar C
CAUTION
The USB interface cable has sufcient length to accommodate the maximum length of the support pillar with all the pieces connected. If fewer pieces are used for the support pillar, there
will be some slack in the cable. If you push the extra length of the cable into the support pillar
to take up the slack, make sure the cable moves freely.
As the display unit is turned, it pulls on the cable. Thus, if the display unit is turned while the
cable is tucked tightly into the support pillar, it can apply undue force on the connector and lead
to a contact failure. Therefore, do not tuck the cable tightly into the support pillar.
