2. Installation requirements
2.1 Mechanical requirements for the X-series display
Weight
Do not underestimate the weight of a complete X-series display. Be sure that the truss installation on which the X-series tiles have
to be installed is capable of handling
fi ve (5) times the complete load of the display. Note that one X-series tile weighs up to 6.5 kg
(or 40 kg (88.2 lbs) per square meter display).
Truss installation
Be sure that the truss installation on which the X-series tiles have to be installed is capable of handling
fi ve (5) times the complete
load of the display.
Base stand installation
Be sure that the fl oor is capable to bear the minimum exerted ground pressure. Do not forget to take into account the weight of the
ballast required in case of a base stand X-series rental display. Use the “Ballast calculator” tool (for more information, see “Ballast”
hereunder) to
fi nd out the exerted ground pressure with the required ballast weight.
Ballast
Depending on the height of the display and the position of the LED-wall upon the foot beams (somewhere between front and middle)
additional weight (ballast) will be required. Use the “Ballast calculator” tool available on Barco’s secured web site to calculate the
minimum ballast you require for safe installation of your X-series display.
If the “Ballast calculator” tool is not available, the tables in this manual (see ....) can be consulted for indicative values of ballast and
ground pressure.
Levelled surface
The surface on which an X-series display has to be installed must be levelled. Never install an X-series display on an inclined
surface.
