Frequently Asked Questions - AWM-AHX-S Atdec

What is the weight capacity of the AWM-AHX-S arm?

The weight capacity varies by mounting base: 6–16 kg (13–35 lb) for desk base mount and 6–14 kg (13–31 lb) for post mount. The monitor weight must be within the range of all modular components used.

What VESA patterns does this arm support?

The arm does not include a VESA head; it is compatible with the AWM-LTH heavy duty tilt head or AWM-LR dual crossbar, which support both 75x75 mm and 100x100 mm VESA patterns.

Can I use a curved monitor with this arm?

Yes, but curved monitors exert extra leverage. The manufacturer advises that even if the monitor weight is within the stated range, the additional leverage from curved or deep devices may exceed the mount’s capacity. Proceed with caution.

How do I adjust the arm tension?

Use the provided 4mm Allen key to turn the tension screw. If the monitor sags, increase tension by turning counter-clockwise. If it springs upward, decrease tension by turning clockwise. The arm is balanced when the monitor stays in place.

Does the arm come with a desk clamp or grommet mount?

No, the base (desk clamp or channel clamp) is sold separately. This arm is compatible with the AWM-LB arm base and AWM-LC channel clamp.

Can I mount two monitors on one arm?

This model is a single monitor arm. For dual monitors, you would need the AWM-LR dual crossbar (sold separately) along with a compatible base and two arms? Actually, the AWM-LR is a crossbar for mounting two monitors side by side on one arm? The manual indicates it is sold separately as a head option. Consult Atdec for dual monitor setups.

How do I manage cables?

After connecting cables to the monitor, route them down the arm using the integrated cable hooks and clips provided on the arm links. This keeps cables tidy and out of the way.

What tools are needed for installation?

The arm includes a 4mm Allen key for tension adjustment. No other tools are required for assembly, but you may need a screwdriver or drill for mounting the base (depending on base type).

Is the arm suitable for all-in-one PCs?

Yes, but like curved monitors, all-in-one PCs are deeper and add extra leverage. Ensure the total weight is within the capacity and test for stability. Offset VESA locations also increase leverage.

What is the warranty on this product?

Atdec offers a manufacturer’s warranty. For exact terms and duration, please refer to the official Atdec support page or contact them directly. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

! Please ensure this product is installed as per these installation instructions.
! Curved monitors, deep devices (such as all-in-one PCs) and offset VESA locations exert additional leverage that can exceed the capacity of the mount even though the monitor weight may be within the stated range.
! The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for incorrect installation.
! This product is compatible with AWM Series monitor arm products.

1. Assemble Arm Links

2. Fit arm onto Arm Base (AWM-LB) or Channel Clamp (AWM-LC) (sold separately)

3. Fit Heavy Duty Tilt Head (AWM-LTH) or Dual Crossbar (AWM-LR) (sold separately)

4. Adjust arm tension

4.1 Use the provided allen key to adjust the arm tension

4.2 Installing multiple similar monitors?

1. Set up one monitor and record the position of the marker on the gauge.
2. When installing other similar monitors, pre-tension the arm to the recorded marker position then fine-tune the tension by following steps 4.3 to 4.5.

4.3 If the monitor sags or falls down, increase the arms tension by rotating the screw anti-clockwise.

• Increase Tension

4.4 If the monitor springs upwards, decrease the arms tension by rotating the screw clockwise.

— Reduce Tension
4.5 If the monitor floats or hovers in all positions the arm tension is balanced and does not require further adjustment.

Balanced

5. Cable management

5.1 Plug cables into the monitor and route the cables down the arm using the cable hooks and clips.
