1. INTRODUCTION
Rosen’s new 7004 series of personal displays allow for direct upgrades for high-definition and
Composite units with a variety of existing bases on your aircraft. In addition to the sleek, tablet-
style display, the touch-sense front panel enables source select capability directly from the front
panel on select models depending on the base. The 7004 models differ depending on the plug-in
arm configuration and input signal. All SDI models (7004-3xx) support 3G HD-SDI up to 1080p,
and are compatible with the Rockwell Collins Venue™ system using RS-232.
This manual describes the compatibility of bases and display models, and it provides general
instructions about how to install the new arm-mounted displays onto your aircraft and confirm that
they are functioning correctly.
Note: Only trained and qualified personnel should perform installation and service.
Technical drawings and the Technical Manual are available on the Rosen Aviation website at
www.rosenaviation.com. From the home page, select the Products tab and browse by product
category. Please contact Technical Support at 541.342.3802 if you need assistance locating
product information.
1.1. Base Compatibility
The tables below show which bases are compatible with the new 7004 displays. For a
comparison of base-mounting diagrams, see Base Installations, beginning on page 12, to
compare. Bases are sold separately.

2. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The typical installation of personal displays consists of multiple arm-mounted displays connected
to a video source. The following figures show how to configure analog (standard definition) and
HD displays to create a complete cabin entertainment system or integrate a display into an
existing system.
Figure 1 Connecting analog displays
These displays are typically connected to a video distribution unit, which provides a single
Composite video signal (NTSC, PAL, or SECAM) to each display. The video distribution box
performs the source selection.

2.1. High-definition Systems
SDI units display either standard definition (SD) or high-definition (HD) video using serial digital
video input. In this configuration, the video is sourced by a digital video distribution switch or
source and de-serialized into an SDI format.
High-definition displays are typically installed in a system where the SDI video is distributed from
a cabin management system and/or HD video distribution to each display.
Figure 2 Connecting HD displays
3. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
The 7” arm-mount displays plug in to round bases depending on the connector type and input
signal. Ensure the correct orientation when plugging the arm into the base receptacle, as shown
below, so that the alignment pin in the base follows the arm’s keyed slot connection and is not
forced.

3.1. Installing/Removing SlimLine Arm Assemblies
To install a SlimLine arm assembly, press the arm button all the way in and push straight down
on the arm into the plug body until it is secure in the base.
Figure 4 SlimLine locking arm features
To remove a SlimLine arm assembly, press the arm button in all the way and lift up on the
display/arm assembly.
3.2. Stowing a Locking Arm Display
SlimLine locking arm displays have two locking points at 0º and 180º to secure displays in a
stowed position, without disconnecting power, during taxiing, takeoff, and landing (TTL).
To stow a SlimLine locking arm display, rotate the arm to either 0º or 180 º until it locks. To
deploy a SlimLine locking arm display, press the arm button halfway and rotate the arm away
from the locked position.

3.6. Base Installations
Consult the Outline and Installation drawing to assist with the installation process. Pay close
attention to the dimensions and fastener depths required when considering installation
requirements.
The 7004 displays are compatible with the base designs, as shown below. Bases mount on
either a vertical or a horizontal surface, typically with a minimum of four screws (two per flange).
For base pinout information, refer to the display drawings on the Rosen Aviation website.

3.8. Pinout Connections
There are several ways to connect a personal display to an aircraft’s entertainment system. Use
the pinout descriptions on the monitor’s Outline and Installation drawing to assist in completing
the wiring connections.
Note: This display is for entertainment purposes only; connect to a non-critical power bus.
3.8.1. RS-232 Control
The SDI displays can be controlled via a cabin management system using RS-232, if an
RS-232 connection is present on the configuration. The display connects to 28VDC
aircraft power and receives video through a video distribution amplifier or directly from
video sources.
For a copy of the RS-232 External Controller Message Formats (P/N 9002934), please
