Connections and Installation
Begin your installation by selecting a data connection.With the ATM-173R monitors, you may use either a serial
or USB data connection.All other ATM-173R series models use USB only. Choose the appropriate data cable
from the accessory kit included with your monitor.
Please note that all Aspen displays that include an MSR or MSR/Customer Display also have an USB
hub internal to the display to interface the peripheral devices.As a result, the display will have only one
USB cable for touch data and the MSR/Customer Display data.Also, two additional User USB ports are
externally available on the display, and these ports may be used to connect additional USB devices to
your system such as a mouse, keyboard, bar code reader, etc.
Next select a mounting method for your monitor.If you wish to use your monitor in any other way than resting it
on its stand on a flat surface, you will need to either:
• Attach the stand to a countertop or wall
• Dismount the display chassis from the stand and use the VESA mounting holes on the chassis to attach
the display to an arm or other mount.The 100mm spaced holes are recommended for this purpose. Use
the 75 mm holes only when 100mm hardware is not available or when recommended by your mounting
hardware provider.
Connect the cables to the monitor before attaching the stand to a countertop or a wall, if access to cable connec-
tions will be restricted when the stand mounting is complete.
To attach the stand to a countertop or wall, print out the full size template file that accompanies this manual, and
use it to determine the proper locations for screw or bolt holes, and if necessary, to select a location for a larger
hole to route cables through the mounting surface.Cables can generally be hidden under the stand baseplate
and the rear cover.The baseplate of the stand can be attached to a flat surface in several ways:
• The four holes near the middle of the baseplate are at a VESA-compatible spacing of 75mm and 100mm.
Use these holes to bolt the stand from the back side.
• The three large “keyhole”slots may be used to secure bolts, inserted from the front side, by nuts threaded
on from the back side of the mounting surface.Insert bolts in mounting holes, loosely thread nuts on from
back side, slip stand keyholes over bolt heads and position bolt shaft in the narrow portion of keyhole slot.
Tighten nuts from back side to finish the installation.
• To attach the stand to the mounting surface from the front, use the two round holes adjacent cable access
cutout, and the hole in the center of the smaller keyhole slot near the front of the baseplate.The back holes
are accessible through the stand when the rear cover is removed, and the front hole is accessed through
the small cover in the top surface of the plastic base.Rotate the cover 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to remove
by inserting a flat blade screwdriver in the cover slot.
