Unpacking and Installation
Unpacking and Installation
Unpack the RMT-170-HD Monitor and inspect for any apparent physical
damage that may have occurred in transit. In addition to the monitor, the
package should contain:
•The monitor
•A power cord,
•A warranty card, and
•Either:
•A table stand and four M4 x 10mm screws, or
•A rack-mount frame.
We recommend you retain the shipping carton for future use.
1. When installing a mount option please assure a soft, non-scratch
surfaced is used to place the monitor on.
2. Place the monitor on the soft surface, screen down to install table
stand, rack ears, or VESA-100 mount.
3. Use the included M4x10mm screws to attach either option. The table
stand attaches on the rear bottom of the unit whilst the VESA-100 is
located on the rear center. Please refer to Chapter 3 for further
reference.
4. Place the RMT-170-HD in the required location for operation.
5. Connect the required signals. For BNC connections use 75Q-rated
connectors.
6. Connect A.C. Mains power using the included EIC power cord. Please
ground the unit to ensure proper operation.
7. As a final step turn on the mains power using the toggle switch located
on the rear of the RMT-170HSD above the power connection.
Note: While the RMT-170-HD is available either as a rack-mount
unit or as a table top unit, the rack-mount unit has a limited
viewing angle that may require downward rotation for
some overhead applications.
