Quick Install Guide for Cisco LCD Professional Series Displays


Revised: October 30, 2008

Install your Cisco LCD Professional Series display so that there is clearance of at least 2.36 inches (6 cm) from the nearest wall, in a location where the ambient temperature is lower than 95°F (35°C). Use standard mounts. For detailed setup instructions, see User Guide for Cisco LCD Professional Series Displays, available on Cisco.com.

Unpacking Your LCD Display and Its Accessories


Warning Keep all accessories and product package materials out of reach of young children.


Open the box and check its contents. It should contain these items:

1 Cisco LCD Professional Series display

1 remote control

2 AAA batteries

1 RS-232 cable

1 power cable

3 BNC to Component adapters (with 52" displays only)

Cisco product documentation (printed or on a CD) that either describes or directs you to:

The product warranty

Regulatory compliance and safety information

Proof of purchase, if relevant

Installation, calibration, and recommended use

Additional product guidance and support

Preventing Injury


Warning Mishandling this product and its accessories might cause fire, personal injury, electric shocks, or product damage that is preventable otherwise. Never drop this product, handle it roughly, or allow it to fall. Always install it, use it, clean it, and maintain it according to Cisco instructions.



Caution Your Cisco LCD Professional Series display is designed for mounting to a concrete wall. You must never mount it to a plaster or wood wall. If you mount it to any non-concrete wall, the weight of the display can pull the brackets free, causing the display to drop to the floor.

We recommend that you hire licensed contractors to unpack, mount, and connect your Cisco LCD Professional Series display. Ensure that at least two persons lift and move it. When putting down your LCD display, be sure to put it down softly. For detailed safety instructions and recommendations, see User Guide for Cisco LCD Professional Series Displays, available on Cisco.com.

Installing Your LCD Display at a Rotated Angle

You can mount your LCD display in its standard, horizontal orientation, or you can pivot it so that it is rotated to a vertical orientation for mounting.

To ensure proper operation of your LCD display if you rotate it away from its standard, horizontal orientation, be sure that the adjusted angle of rotation for vertical operation is exactly 90° clockwise from the horizontal and the Cisco logo is on the left. Otherwise, you will void the Cisco warranty.

Preventing Video Walls from Overheating

Method
Reference Diagram

 

To ensure proper ventilation and adequate cooling when you arrange multiple LCD displays together in the grid (3x3 or more) that constitutes a video wall, we recommend that you should mount two slim, vertical beams behind and between each column of LCD displays.

These beams separate each display from the wall on which it is mounted, forming a channel through which air can flow behind each column. This method controls the heat that LCD displays generate and minimizes the effect of heat that might otherwise pool together from multiple displays and cause one or more of them to overheat.

 

When you install your video wall within a decorative enclosure of any kind, so that either of these statements is true:

Most or all of any one display is enclosed

A flange surrounds most of the perimeter of the video wall, or surrounds the entire perimeter

be sure that air can flow freely between each display and the decorative enclosure, and that the enclosure is vented for cooling.


Connecting to a Cisco Digital Media Player
