INSTALLATION

The MPC-AWM3V is designed to be mounted with a universal ball-and-socket mounting kit, in a 
Flat Panel position or optional Flush Mount configuration.

Pedestal Mount

The MPC-AWM3V is shipped with a RAM® universal ball-and-socket system mounting kit (Figure 
2). By installing the Monitor with this kit, the User can quickly adjust the
viewing angle to improve viewability in changing environments. This ball-and-socket
system has proven to be successful in supporting an extreme amount of weight in

high vibration and difficult-mount applications. See Appendix A for link to drawings.

Locate the ball-and-socket system in the shipping box. The kit consists of two RAM
balls on mounting plates and a RAM arm, with an adjustable T-knob and a packet of
three (3) M4 x 10 counter-sunk stainless screws for mounting to the MPC-AWM3V.
