8 VC-Strip Safety and Installation Guide
Physical installation
The VC-Strip can be installed in any orientation. The most evenly matched optical characteristics when
viewing an installation from the side at an angle are obtained when all VC-Strip modules are oriented
horizontally, but unevenness will hardly be noticeable in vertical strips, and then only when viewed from the
side.
The backs of modules are marked with arrows and the word TOP . Install all modules with the arrows facing
the same way. When installing horizontally, install all modules with the arrows pointing upwards and the
TOP marking at the upper edge of the modules.
Allow free airflow around the product and at least 10 mm (0.4 in.) of clearance around the LEDs on the front
surface.
To maintain 25 mm pixel spacing across multiple VC-Strip modules so that they form a seamless display
surface, install them with a 1 mm (0.04 in.) gap between ends and 5 mm (0.2 in.) gap between sides of
modules.
See Figure 2. The VC-Strip can be fastened to a surface or structure by installing pillar bolts using any two
of the mounting holes (arrowed).
Important! Read ”Electrostatic discharge precautions” on page 6 before installing the
VC-Strip.
