Assembly And Installation

The following installation instructions assume that the LVM or LBM Series video wall has been assembled prior to the point of installing the rails to the columns. Refer to LVM or LBM Series installation instructions for details.

Column Add-On Installation

1. Insert one column add-on (V) to each column (M) making sure holes are lined up on each side. (See Figure 1)
2. Use 5/32" hex key (RR) and six 1/4-20 x 1/2" flat head cap screws (X) to secure each column add-on (V) to each column (M). (See Figure 1)

(rear view) (V) ② (X) x 6 (FCA3X1U shown) ① (M)

Figure 1

Rails Installation

1. Using display dimensions, determine where the center of the top displays will be on the cart.

IMPORTANT ! : Install all column add-ons (V), if applicable, prior to installing rails to columns.

1. Place clamp brackets (P) on column add-ons (V) in the position of where the center of the top displays will be on the cart with the diamond on the brackets being placed at the exact center location. (See Figure 2)

Figure 2

1. Use 5/16-18 x 4 1/2" button head cap screw (FF), two 5/16" washers (JJ) and 5/16-18" lock nut (NN) to secure each clamp bracket (P) to column. (See Figure 2)

NOTE: Clamp brackets (P) may be flipped in order to use long slots for installation if necessary. (See Figure 3)

1. Measure one screen height down from center point on installed clamp brackets to determine mounting location of lower clamp brackets. (See Figure 4)

2. Use 5/16-18 x 4 1/2" button head cap screw (FF), two 5/16" washers (JJ) and 5/16-18" lock nut (NN) to install clamp brackets for lower displays with center diamond one screen height below center diamond of upper installed brackets. (See Figure 4)

NOTE: If some clearance is desired in between displays, install lower brackets slightly more than one screen height below upper brackets.

1. Use four 5/16-18 x 3/4" button head flange screws (HH) to secure each attached clamp bracket (P) to a quick connect base (Q). (See Figure 5)

(6) (HH) x 4 (Q) (P)

Figure 5
NOTE: If rails must be installed over cable management holes on column, cables must be routed prior to installing rails onto quick connect bases. See Cable Management section for details.
7. Install two 5/16-18 x 3/4" button head flange screws (HH) into the top holes on each quick connect base (Q). (See Figure 6)

8. Hang rails (J, K or L) into screws installed in previous step to quick connect bases (Q). (See Figure 6)
IMPORTANT ! : If installing the triple display rail (L), install rail to left and center columns so that add-on rail can be installed to right column. See Add-On Rail Installation section for details.

1. Install two 5/16-18 x 3/4" button head flange screws (HH) into the lower holes on each quick connect base (Q) to secure rails to quick connect bases. (See Figure 7)
2. Tighten all 5/16-18 x 3/4" button head flange screws (HH).

(HH) x 2
