Installing the video adapter
This section describes the mounting of the video adapter.
Before you begin
You will want to analyze your particular setup to determine the most convenient location
to mount the video adapter. The mounting location needs to be close to that of the arm
arm support to allow for a video cable connection to the robotic arm mounted in the arm
support.
Note
: The video adapter must be installed with the connectors facing down (+/-) 15° to
protect against water ingress.
About this task
The video adapter can be mounted with four M5 screws to a flat surface through pre-
drilled holes on the mounting flanges of the adapter.
Procedure
1.
Drill four holes in a flat mounting surface using the mounting hole pattern of the video
adapter mounting flanges as a guide.

2.
Secure the video adapter to the surface using four M5 screws (and nuts, if applicable).
3.
One of the mounting holes has an exposed grounding connection. Connect this to ground.
4.
Connect the video cable from the robotic arm base to the power / video in connector of the
video adapter.
5.
Connect the video out RCA connector to your video monitor.
