Mounting the Wall Plate
Mounting to Wooden Stud
1. Determine the location where you want the display mounted on the
wall.
2. Use stud finder to locate and mark the center of the two studs.
3. Remove Plasma CL from box. Remove UM-1 Adaptor plate from the
Mounting Head, and set the four 3/8”-16 button head cap screws aside
for later.
Note that the cantilever arm is mounted at the end of the wall plate for
shipping.
4. Remove cantilever arm from Wall plate.
5. Align center mounting holes of wall plate with center marks on studs.
Using the wall plate as a template, mark the mounting holes and center
J box hole. Install J box as required.
Note: Electrical outlets should only be installed by a qualified
electrician.

6. Drill mounting holes with 9/32” bit. Mounting holes should be 3”
(76 mm) deep.
Mounting to Masonry
1. Using the wall plate as a template, mark the mounting holes in the
desired mounting location.
2. Drill mounting holes with 3/8” (10mm) masonry bit. Mounting holes
should be a minimum of 2 9/16” (65mm) deep.
3. Insert masonry mounting anchors (not supplied) into holes, and tap
flush with hammer.

Mounting Cantilever Assembly
Mounting Cantilever Assembly
1. Important: for the display to be centered over the wall plate when
the cantilever arm is folded, the arm will need to be offset by
approximately 4” (10.1 cm) from the desired center position of the
screen. To do this, first note where the desired center of screen position
intersects the wall plate, and then mark the wall plate.
2. Attach cantilever arm to the wall plate at the indicated offset
location.
3. Mount cantilever assembly to wall using supplied 3/8” lag bolts.
4. Fold cantilever arm to verify center location of mounting head.
Note:
the mounting head will be centered with the arm folded in one
direction only.

Configuring the UM-1 adaptor plate
Measure display
The UM-1 ships with a standard set of mounting rails pre-installed.
These rails will fit a display where the vertical distance between
mounting lands on the display are 17 1/8” or less. If your display is
larger than this, you will need to install the large set of mounting rails,
which are included with the UM-1. Please see Install Mounting Rails at
the end of this section for details.
Set UM-1 width
The UM-1 is capable of handling a wide range of landed insert widths.
Measure the horizontal distance between mounting lands on your
display, and set the width of the Mounting Rails as shown,
Standard Range: 38 ½” (98 cm) to 15 ¾” (40 cm)
Standard Configuration
For standard range configurations, loosen the screws on the sliders using
the supplied Allen wrench, adjust rails to desired width, and then re-
tighten screws.
Narrow Range: 15 ½” (39 cm) to 3 ½” (9 cm)
Narrow Configuration
For narrow range configurations, flip slider/rail assembly over (as shown
below) before inserting them into the channels.
Secure sliders and back plate
Secure sliders with (8) button head screws.
For
medium and narrow displays , where the nuts on the slider are
beneath the back plate, thread button head screws through the back
plate and into the slider as shown.
Note:
The ou er co ne s of the back pla e must always be secured with a
screw.
t r r t
For wide displays , where the nuts on the slider are positioned outside of
the back plate, use lock nut with button head screws (supplied) to
secure the back plate, as shown at right.

Mount UM1 to Display
Hardware Selection
a. Consult the supplied Hardware Cross Reference List.
b. Select the mounting hardware for your display.
Attach UM-1 to Display
a. Position the UM-1 over back of display.
b. Thread mounting screws through square washers and spacers (if
required), as shown.
c. Thread mounting screws through slots on side rails into landed
inserts, and secure loosely.
d. With mounting screws installed, center UM-1 on the back of the
display, and then tighten all screws securely.
CAUTION: Do not use power tools or over-tighten the mounting screws.
Install Mounting Rails
1. Remove slider retaining screws as shown.
2. Remove sliders from channels.
3. Select required side rail size:
Medium rail – up to 17 1/8” height of landed inserts
Large rail – up to 25” height of landed inserts
4

4. Attach selected side rails to sliders as shown.
5. Re-install slider assemblies into channels as shown, and return to Set
UM-1 Width section.
Mounting the Display
1. Locate the set of four 3/8”-16 button head cap screws removed at the
beginning of the installation.
2. Thread two of the screws approximately a ¼” (.6 cm) into the upper
set of PEM nuts on the adaptor plate, as shown.
3. With the help of an assistant, carefully lift the display and hang it
onto the Plasma CL by dropping the exposed portion of the screws down
into the key slots on the nose piece of the Plasma CL.
4. With the display hanging on the mount, thread the second set of
screws into place, and then tighten all four screws securely.

Display Adjustments
Roll Control
Function - Horizontal leveling of the display.
Operation - Grasp the sides of the display, and roll it into the desired
position.
Adjusting Roll Tension – Roll tension is controlled by the two tension
bolts located on the outer edges of the nose piece. Use an open-ended
9/16” wrench to make adjustments to the tension bolts by inserting
wrench between the nose piece and the adaptor plate.
Vertical Tilt
Function – raising and lowering the screen edge to improve viewing
angle/picture quality.
Operation – Loosen tilt tension screws with supplied 3/16” Allen wrench
as shown. Adjust display for desired tilt angle. Re-tighten tension
screws.
Swivel
Purpose – Optimize viewing angle for off center viewing positions.
Operation – Grasp edges of display and swivel into desired position.
Adjust swivel tension – Adjust tension with supplied 3/16” Allen wrench.

180° Pan
Purpose – Allows display to be positioned perpendicular to wall.
Operation – Extend cantilever arm completely. Fully swivel display in
desired direction.
Note: Maximum screen size for full 180° Pan is approximately 50”.
Stowing the Screen
Purpose – Allows display to be folded flat to the wall.
Operation – Grasp center pivot point of cantilever arm and edge of
display. Fold arm in half at pivot point and push display back flat
against wall.
Centering the Screen
The screen will be centered with the cantilever arm folded in one
direction only, as shown.
