STEP 1: Installation Prerequisites
Prior to touch panel installation, identify a proper installation surface in
accordance with local laws and building codes. Ensure that your category cable
(networking cable) has access to the location.
STEP 2: Install the Mounting Plate
If installing on wall
, mark your surface using the included installation template
for the four (4) VESA holes and one (1) desired cable pass-thru location. Drill
holes as required and screw the mounting bracket onto the surface, using
appropriate hardware for the surface (ie. drywall, concrete, brick, etc.). Make
sure to orient the mounting bracket with the set screw on TOP and the two
mounting tabs on the BOTTOM.
Note: Screws with large heads (eg. some pan head screws) will protrude out of the mounting
plate recess and interfere with the touch panel. Use screws with flat or low profile heads.
If installing on glass or other smooth surface
using the adhesive pad, first clean
& dry all surfaces completely. Apply the adhesive pad to the mounting bracket,
only exposing one adhesive side of the pad. Then adhere the mounting bracket
to the surface with the set screw hole facing UP and the two tabs on the
BOTTOM. Make sure it is a secure fit, but do not apply too much pressure as glass
may break.
The included backside decal can be used to hide the adhesive & mounting plate
from view, on the other side of the glass. Carefully align the decal, then adhere
the decal to the other side of the glass (opposite the mounting bracket).
STEP 3: Route Category Cable
Remove the touch panel’s lower rear cover by removing two (2) screws (if
installed). Place your thumbs on the rectangular access holes, and push the
lower cover away from you.

Lower Cover Holes
Plug in the networking cable and route it out one (1) of the three (3) available
openings in the lower cover: left, right, or bottom. Once fully seated, reattach
the lower rear cover.
