m70L Installation & Configuration Guide 9
Installing an m70L
This section explains how to install an m70L. We suggest that you read the entire
section before you attempt to install the unit.
Before You Begin
Make sure you have all the items in these checklists before you begin unpacking and
installing your m70L(s).
Plan Your Installation
You should have a detailed plan of how the units are to be configured. The plan
should include calculations for the following:
Power (maximum of two units per 20A circuit for 115V operation)
Cable runs
Ventilation and cooling requirements - If the display is enclosed, you must
provide a space for exhaust air from the display to get away. If the space behind
the display has no air circulation, the display will get too hot. If the air does not
circulate well enough naturally, consider planning for A/C venting. The installer
is responsible for ensuring that the ambient temperature is always within
specifications.
Caution: Because the m70L has an airflow that pulls air from the bottom of display and
pushes it out the top, you cannot stack displays directly on top of each other. (In Portrait
mode air would be pulled from left to right.) Placing displays directly above or next to each
other will cause the warm exhaust air from one display to flow into the other display.
If hanging display on a wall, location of studs in the wall
Prepare Your Installation Location
You should have prepared the area where you will install the unit. If custom
enclosures are part of the installation, they must be fully designed to accommodate
the installed unit and ventilation and cooling requirements.
Tools and Other Things You May Need
Tools:
Needle nose pliers to remove staples from the bottom of the shipping box
Utility knife to cut shrink wrap or box banding
Stud finder (if hanging display on a wall)
Computer network LAN cables (straight through - no crossover) to interconnect
multiple displays for RS232 control
LCD screen cleaner or LCD wipes, available at most electronics stores
At least
two very strong people to help lift unit into place. If possible, more than
two people are recommended.
