Interface Installation

IMPORTANT ! : If the display hole pattern size is 100mm x 100mm, 200mm x 200mm or 100mm x 200mm, the display can be mounted directly to the faceplate and the interface bracket DOES NOT need to be installed! Proceed to Installing Display without Interface Bracket section.

  1. Lay display face down on protective surface. CAUTION: Using screws of improper diameter may damage your display! Proper screws will easily thread into display mounting holes.
  2. Select screw diameter by examining hardware (A-D) (4mm, 5mm, 6mm or 8mm) and comparing with mounting holes on display. (See Figure 20)
  3. Select spacers: (See Figure 20)• If mounting holes are not recessed and both uprights (P and Q) can lay flat against display, then no spacers are required.• If mounting holes are recessed, or if protrusions prevent uprights (P and Q) from laying flat, then spacers (E1 or E2) must be used.CAUTION: Using screws of improper length may damage your display! Proper screws will have adequate thread engagement without contacting bottom of display mounting holes.
  4. Select screw length: (See Figure 20)•  Using your hand, insert SHORTEST length screw of selected diameter (A1, B1,C1 or D1) through universal washer (E4), bracket (P or Q), selected spacer (E1 or E2, if required), into display mounting hole. Do NOT thread screw into hole at this time.NOTE: Universal washers (E4) are not needed if using M8 button head cap screws (D).•  Proper screw length requires base of screw head to protrude above flat washer a distance equal to or greater than the screw diameter. If screw length is inadequate, select longer screw. Select shortest screw which will protrude the required distance.
  5. Place uprights (P and Q) on display, ensuring: (See Figure 21)•  Center of uprights (P and Q) are as close to the center of the back of display as possible after being installed. Center of bracket is indicated by the diamond-shaped hole.NOTE: If installing to a display with a narrow hole mounting pattern, reverse uprights (P and Q) so that the upright legs do not overlap onto each other. (See Figure 21)

6. Using Phillips screwdriver, carefully install selected screws through universal washers (E4, if required), uprights (P and Q), and spacers (E1 or E2, if required), into display. (See Figure 20)

7. Tighten all screws. Ensure all applicable display mounting holes (4, 6, or 8) are used.

8. Connect top interface support (R) to uprights (P and Q) using four #10-24 x 1/2″ button head cap screws (W). (See Figure 22)

NOTE: If possible install screws diagonally across from each other in order to provide maximum support in Steps 8 and 9.

9. Connect bottom interface support (S) to uprights (P and Q) using four #10-24 x 1/2″ button head cap screws (W). (See Figure 22)

10. When connecting bottom interface support to uprights, make sure that it is aligned vertically with top interface support. (See Figure 22)
