INSTALLATION

Preinstallation
IMPORTANT ! : Reference the LED screen installation manual for specific instructions regarding care, handling, cabling and installation of the LED screens.

• CAUTION: Handle the LED screens with care, being careful to not impact or drop the LED screen.

• CAUTION: There is a magnetic surface on the front of the LED screen. To prevent damage ensure that no metallic object is pulled onto the LED screen.
  NOTE: When planning the installation, remember the requirement to run power and signal to the video wall.

• Site Assessment
  Before beginning any installation the site should be assessed in several areas to help avoid any issues during the actual installation.

  • Wall Structure – It is recommended that a 3/4″ furniture-grade plywood-backed wall be used in most LED video walls. The use of a wood stud wall is not appropriate since the studs won’t be in the proper location for an LED video wall.
  • Wall High/Low Points – Locate any high or low points on the wall that may cause problems, and try to set up install so that these points can be avoided, if possible.
  • Flatness/Plumb of Wall – Learn how much depth adjustment will be needed across the LED video wall mounting area.
  • Power/Cable – Locate all power outlets and cable access holes that need to be cleared by the installation. Plan appropriately for those holes.
  • Installing in a Recess – Verify the level and squareness of the recessed area. Since these areas are rarely perfect you may need to decide what to use as a reference point.
  • The recess top or bottom may not be level so the video wall may need to be installed to align with the recess, rather than being level with the wall.
  • If the recess is not square the sides may make the recess look crooked. If possible, the recess should be fixed. If repairing the recess isn’t an option it may be best to “split the difference” between the recess sides to make the video wall appear level.
  • Where to Begin the Video Wall – The installer should make the decision whether the video wall will be started at the top, bottom, left, right or center.
  • If a lower bottom reference is given in the specifications, it may make sense to start at the bottom of the video wall to ensure that this specification is met from the start of installation.
  • If building inside of a recess, it may be easier to start in the center of the space since the video wall will most likely need to be centered within the recess.
  • Vertical Connector Brackets – If creating a video wall with more than a single row, you will be using the vertical connectors which are sold separately.
  • Vertical Connector Brackets [sold separately] If the video wall requires multiple rows, decide on whether the installation will start with the top or bottom row. This determines to which end (top or bottom) the vertical connector brackets are attached.

Just a tip – For larger LED walls it is helpful to check placement and alignment of the mounts by putting a few cabinets without the LED’s in place in the bottom row of the installed mounts (referencing the LED screen installation manual for specific instructions) during the mount installation, verifying that everything is staying aligned and level, and then continuing the mount installation.

Just a tip – The horizontal slots located along the vertical mount pieces (and keyholes located along the horizontal mount pieces) are the center-of- screen indicators to illustrate where the center of each LED screen will be located. The slots can be used to hold a tape measure tab while measuring. (See Figure 1)

Determining Installation Site
IMPORTANT ! : The top of the LED screen is 5.5″ above the center line of the mounting lags in the upper mounting slots. (See Figure 2)
IMPORTANT ! : The bottom of the LED screen is 6.25″ below the center line of the mounting lags in the lowest mounting slots.
NOTE: Refer to dimensions drawings on pages 18-20 and in  Figure 2 for further details on installation locations.

Figure 2

• Installation to Wall
  NOTE: If desired, the mount installation may be started in the middle of the video wall, attaching mounts out from the center to the left and right ends. Installation on smaller walls may be easier if started at the left side of the video wall using the following instructions.

• IMPORTANT ! : Installation of video wall should begin with installation of the lowest row of mounts first.

1. Determine location for the bottom left corner of the LED wall. (See Figure 2)

2. Make a mark at the centerline for the horizontal spacer bracket based on the mount height. Refer to drawings on pages 18-20 for the distance from the spacer to the bottom of the display. (See Figure 2)

3. Using a level, mark a horizontal line across width of LED wall from the mark made in Step 2. (See Figure 3)

4. Hold spacer plate (P) up to wall, lining up keyhole slot with line drawn in Step 2. (See Figure 3)
   NOTE: This line will indicate the center line for the location of the spacers used to mount the video wall uprights.

5. Use #8 x 2″ Phillips drywall screw (R) to secure spacer plate (P) to wall. Use a level to make sure spacer is level before tightening screw. (See Figure 3)

6. 6. Loosely install #10-24 x 1/2″ Phillips undercut machine screws (Q) into uprights (L, M or N) that will be attached to spacer plate (P). (See Figure 4)

7. Hang left upright (L) onto side of spacer plate (P) using screws loosely installed in Step 6.

8. Tighten Phillips undercut machine screws (Q) to secure left upright (L) to spacer plate (P). (See Figure 5)

9. Hang middle upright (M) or right upright (N) onto side of spacer plate (P) using screws loosely installed in Step 6.(See Figure 6)

10. Tighten screws holding uprights (L, M or N) to spacer plate (P). (See Figure 6)

Adding Vertical Connector Kit (Sold Separately)
NOTE: If more LED screens will need to be added to the top or bottom of the screen configuration, add TILVAB2 vertical connector kit to top or bottom of wall mount using the following instructions. If you are NOT adding the TILVAB2 connector kit, proceed to Installing First Mount section.
IMPORTANT! It is easier to install the vertical connector kit BEFORE the mounts are attached to the wall. However, it can also be installed after the mounts are attached to the wall.

1. Add the vertical connector (K) to the top or bottom of the mount, and fasten with four 1/4-20 x 1/2″ Phillips pan head screws (J) per vertical connector (K). (See Figure 7)
2. Partially install two 1/4-20 x 1/2″ Phillips pan head screws (J) into top or bottom screw holes on connectors (K). (See Figure 7)

Installing First Mount to Wall

• The TILD1X3NE1 / TILD1X4NE1 /TILD1X5NE1 LED wall mounts are designed to be mounted to the following wall types:

Table 1: Fastener Information

1. Hold furthest left wall mount against wall ensuring that mounting slot is lined up with center line marked on the wall in Determining Installation Site section. Double-check with a level. (See Figure 8)

2. Mark mounting holes near top or mounting slots along the horizontal line. (See Figure 8)

3. The mounting holes are 17.01″ apart on-center for left and middle and 23.62″ for middle and middle and 21.96 for middle and right. (See Figure 8)
   NOTE: Mark and drill pilot holes near top of mounting slots for maximum height adjustment.

4. Drill two pilot holes (see Table 1 for size) at each location marked in Step 2 (See Figure 8) and follow fastener information located in Table 1. marked in Step 2 (See Figure 8) and follow fastener information located in Table 1.
   IMPORTANT ! : Refer to Fastener Installation Methods (located in Appendix at end of Installation Instructions) for details on installing product into various wall types.

5. Install two lag screws (C) into wall, but do NOT completely tighten to wall. (See Figure 9)
   NOTE: (OPTIONAL) If more LED screens need to be added to  the top or bottom of the screen configuration, add TILVABPT vertical connector kit (not included) to top or bottom of wall mount following instructions in the (OPTIONAL) Adding Vertical Connector Kit. If you are NOT adding the TILVABPT connector kit, proceed to Step 5.

6. Slide the left (A-Left) and right (A-Right) adjustment washers into place behind and partially install lag screws. (See Figure 10)

7. Place a level across front of the mount at bottom of leveling slots. (See Figure 11)

8. Check the level of the mount at the bottom of the leveling slots. (See Figure 11)

9. Drill pilot holes near top of centerline of lower slots for maximum height adjustment (see Table 1 for size) and follow fastener information (appropriate for wall type) located in Table 1. (See Figure 12)

10. Loosely install 5/16 x 2-1/2″ lag screws (C) through the 5/16″ fender washers (D) to secure to wall. (See Figure 12)

11. Check the level of the mount horizontally at the bottom of the leveling slots and vertically on the side of the uprights.(See Figure 12) and (See Figure 13)

12. If the mount is not level, slide or use a dead blow hammer to lightly tap the spacer into place. This will lift the mount up as the lag screw rides in the washer’s angled slot. (See Figure 13)
    Just a tip – Tighten down the lag screw on the side that does NOT need to be raised. This creates a pivot point for when the opposite adjustment washer is tapped into place, and allows that correct side of the mount to move up.

13. Tighten the bottom lag screws (C) to allow for leveling adjustment if needed later. (See Figure 13)

14. Remove #8 x 2″ Phillips drywall screw (R) from wall after mount has been leveled. (See Figure 14)
