INSTALLING THE TELEVISION
Installation Precautions For models powered over coax, use only a power source from PDi suitable for use in a healthcare facility. The single coaxial cable on top of the TV is used to supply both low voltage AC or DC power (28VAC or 24VDC) and RF signal to the television.
For models powered by ethernet (PoE) use only UL listed power sourcing equipment that offers 60W per port using all 4 pairs for power delivery. This is sometimes called UPoE, PoE++ or 802.3bt type 3. PDi recommends the Microchip Microsemi PD-9506G/ACDC/M midspan power inserter. The ethernet cable on top of the TV is used to supply both power and data. Be sure power is not applied to the coaxial cable entering the TV.
Coax Cable Specifications When using a central coax power supply, cable selection is crucial. Due to long coax cable runs encountered in hospital installations, coax cable employing a solid copper center conductor and copper shield is required. Cable run lengths MUST NOT exceed 150 feet. Required coaxial cable numbers include Alpha 9804C (non-plenum), Belden 9248 (non- Plenum), West Penn 806 (non-Plenum), or West Penn 25806 (Plenum), which have been tested with coax-powered TVs.
Category Cable Specifications PoE models are IEEE 802.3bt compatible. When using a PoE power inserter to apply power to ethernet, CAT5e or better cable may be used. The total cable length from network switch to PDI device may be up to the standard 330ft.
Arm Mounting This television is designed to attach to a PDi suspension arm adjusted to support seven pounds.
Arm Recoil Hazard: The safety brake pin must remain in the SAFETY BRAKE PIN HOLE whenever the television is removed from the arm or when the arm is removed from the wall bracket to prevent INJURY from the arm springing open. Note: Contact PDi for additional information on arm compatibility and cable requirements.
DIRECT ENTRY KEYPAD You can use the glass keypad for power, volume, closed captions, channel, and direct channel entry.
