Install Seismic Clips

1. 

Place seismic clip (0M-4983082) up to the secured mounting points in 

the frame. Refer to 

Figure 12

.

Note: 

Ensure that the flange of the clip falls in the track opening and is 

pressed against the side of the threaded clip.

2. 

Mark the location of one of the two holes in the clip to match the drill 

with the screw hole. Remove the clip.

3. 

Drill a

Panel Installation

Route Power & Signal

1. 

Identify which panels will require power and/or signal inputs. Refer to 

the contract-specific Shop and Riser Drawings for details.

2. 

Use the pass-through holes and notches in the frame to route the 

power and signal input cables from the input to the required input 

panel location prior to panel installation.

Note: 

Incoming power and signal cables external to the display 

cannot be routed after panels are installed.
