5. Make sure diamond on interface brackets is even with  
center of display. (See Figure 10)  
INSTALLING INTERFACE BRACKETS  
1. Place displays face down on a soft, non-abrasive surface.  
6. Use selected screws (A-C or F-H), washers (D, if using  
screws A, B or C) and spacers (E), if necessary, to connect  
interface brackets (X) to back of display. (See Figure 10)  
CAUTION: Using screws of improper diameter may  
damage your display! Proper screws will easily thread into  
display mounting holes.  
ADDING DISPLAYS TO MOUNTS  
1. Raise display with attached interface brackets and hook top  
of brackets into top of mount. (See Figure 11)  
2. Select screw diameter by examining hardware (A-C and F-H)  
(6mm or 8mm) and comparing with mounting holes on  
display. (See Figure 10)  
2. Slowly bring bottom of display in towards mount until it clicks  
into place.  
3. Select spacers:  
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for remaining mounts in that row.  
Spacers are NOT required if mounting holes are not  
recessed and interface brackets (X) can lay flat against  
display.  
(LVS1U shown  
as example)  
Interface  
Spacers (E) ARE required if mounting holes are  
recessed, or if protrusions prevent interface brackets  
(X) from laying flat.

CAUTION: Using screws of improper length may damage  
your display! Proper screws will have adequate thread  
engagement without contacting bottom of display mounting  
holes.

4. Select screw length: (See Figure 10)  
By hand, insert SHORTEST length screw of selected  
diameter (A or F) through 3/16" washer (D, if using  
screw A), bracket (X), selected spacer (E, if required),  
into display mounting hole. Do NOT thread screw into  
hole at this time.  
1
Proper screw length requires base of screw head to  
protrude above flat washer (if flat washer is used) a  
distance equal to or greater than the screw diameter. If  
screw length is inadequate, select longer screw. Select  
shortest screw which will protrude the required  
distance.

RapidDraw Display Release  
SERVICE  
The RapidDraw pull cord and display release allows easy  
service access to any specific display in the video wall.  
Extending and Retracting Mount  
The mounts may be extended and retracted only in a service  
situation.  
Each mount ships with the pull cord installed. It is installed so  
that when pulled from below the mount or from the right of the  
mount it will release the display for service.  
1. To Extend Mount: Pull on the RapidDraw release cord  
designated for the specific mount.  
The following steps should be taken if an installation requires  
that the pull cord be accessible from the left of the display or  
above the display:  
2. When the mount releases, carefully grasp bezel edges of  
display and pull out slowly, being careful to clear  
surrounding displays.  
1. Unhook the pull cord from the mount. (See Figure 23)  
3. To Retract Mount: Carefully push against display bezel  
edges, being careful to clear surrounding displays.  
2. Reinstall the pull cord in the opposite hole on the mount.  
(See Figure 23)  
4. Push display against mount until it clicks into place.  
Mount ships with  
cord attached here  
To release display from  
left or above,  
reinstall cord

Interface Bracket Kickstands  
2
The interface brackets are equipped with kickstands which  
must only be used in a service situation.  
1. Pull down on interface bracket release cords. (See Figure 22)  
2. Pull out bottom of display.  
3. Flip down the kickstands on both interface brackets, and  
prop against mount during service.
