The IMD Industrial Monitors & Panel PCs are designed to offer flexible installation options to cater to a variety of industrial requirements. This guide will walk you through the different mounting types available for this monitor, ensuring a secure and stable setup for optimal performance.

1. General Preparation: Before starting any installation, ensure:

• The installation area is clean, free from dust, and has sufficient space.
• You have all the necessary installation hardware at hand.
• The monitor's power is off and unplugged.
• You're wearing appropriate safety equipment, including gloves and protective eyewear.

2. Desktop Mount: This is the most straightforward installation type, where the monitor stands on a flat surface.

Instructions:

• Place the monitor on a clean, stable, and flat surface.
• Ensure the monitor's stand or base is securely attached and that the monitor is stable.
• Adjust the viewing angle as necessary for optimal visibility.

3. Wall-Mounted: For those looking to save on desk space or need the monitor elevated.

Instructions:

• Determine the optimal height and location on the wall.
• Using a pencil, mark the drill holes based on the monitor's VESA mounting pattern.
• Drill holes into the wall using appropriate wall anchors.
• Attach the VESA compatible wall mount bracket to the wall.
• Secure the monitor to the bracket, ensuring it's locked in place.
• Adjust the viewing angle if the bracket allows.

Note: Ensure you use sturdy wall anchors suitable for the weight of the monitor.

4. Open Frame Mounting: This type of mounting is ideal for integrating the monitor into machinery or other larger systems.

Instructions:

• Measure and cut out a space on the machinery or system where the monitor will be placed.
• Ensure the cutout is slightly smaller than the monitor for a snug fit.
• Insert the monitor into the cutout from the front.
• From the back, secure the monitor using the provided brackets and screws, ensuring a tight fit.
• Make sure the monitor is stable and there's no risk of it falling out.

5. Panel Mount: A popular choice for control panels and other industrial applications.

Instructions:

• Measure the area where you wish to mount the monitor.
• Cut a hole slightly smaller than the monitor's dimensions for a tight fit.
• Insert the monitor into the hole from the front.
• On the rear, use the provided panel-mount clamps or brackets. Slide them over the edge of the monitor and secure them in place using screws.
• Ensure the monitor is snugly fit and doesn't wobble.

6. Cantilevered Setups: Ideal for setups where the monitor needs to extend outwards from a wall or other vertical surface.

Instructions:

• Secure the cantilever bracket's base to the desired surface using screws or bolts.
• Attach the monitor to the other end of the cantilever arm.
• Ensure all joints and connections are tight and secure.
• Adjust the monitor's position and angle for optimal viewing.

• Screws and bolts of various sizes.
• Wall anchors for wall mounting.
• Panel-mount clamps or brackets for panel installations.
• VESA compatible brackets for wall mounting.
• Brackets for open-frame installations.

However, depending on the specific installation type and the environment, you may need additional hardware or tools.

Safety Precautions:

• Always power off and unplug the monitor before any installation.
• Use appropriate tools and follow safety guidelines.
• When drilling or cutting, always wear protective gear.
• Seek professional assistance if unsure about the installation process.

By following the above instructions carefully, you should be able to securely install your IMD Industrial Monitor in any desired setup, ensuring its longevity and optimal performance.
