6 Mechanical Installation
2.4 Display Mounting
To ensure structural integrity of the display cabinet, maintain a 90° angle between the cabinet
and the lifting method.
If damage occurs because of improper lifting procedures, the warranty will be void.
General Mounting Procedure
1. Lift the display into position on the support structure. Refer to Figure 7.
Notes:
 Use all eyebolts to lift the
display, as shown in Figure
7. Failure to do so may
result in tear-off at
hardware connections.
 Do not permanently
support the display by the
eyebolts.
2. Weld or use 1 /
2
" grade-5 (or
stronger) bolts and hardware to
secure all of the clip angles to the
support structure. Refer to the Shop
Drawing included with the display.
Note: If using alternative mounting methods in place of clip angles, ensure that all bolt
locations are used.
3. Refer to Section 3: for power routing and to the appropriate communication manual for
signal connections to the display.
4. After installation is complete, carefully inspect the display for any holes that may allow
water to seep into the display. Seal any holes with silicone.
2.5 Ventilation Requirements
Displays are equipped with ventilation systems to keep internal electrical components at safe
operating temperatures. Depending on the size of the display, it will use either natural
convection or fans. Pay special attention to the locations of intake and exhaust vents, as these
vents must remain unobstructed to maintain safe operating temperatures.
Open Area Requirement for Rear Ventilation
The open area requirement is the amount of open space needed behind a rear-ventilated
display for proper ventilation. This area is different for each display. Refer to Figure 8 for a
general overview. For specifics on the open area requirement, refer to the Shop Drawing for
the display.
