30 Runco WindowWall Installation Guide
Routing Cables
Before you install LCD tiles, you need to route cables through the LCD mounts.
Notches on the horizontal brackets make routing cables easier.
As you configure your wall, it important to think about how it will be set up and
where the master (A1) display should be located. This does not need to be the upper
left display in an array, but rather should be in a location that will be easily accessible.
For example, if you have a 4 x 4 wall and it is easier to see on-screen menus in a lower
row, the master (A1) display should be set up there.
1
Route power, data and video cables (see "Unpacking and Checking Accessories"
on page 17 for pictures) between the LCD mounts and then through the side
hole near the bottom of the LCD mount. Place cables in the LCD mount channel
so they are out of the way.
Note: It is highly recommended that you use the cable label maker to identify each cable
before it is installed.
2
Route power, data and video cables from the brackets to the off-board
equipment for the entire wall. For ease in troubleshooting and configuration, we
recommend that you cable your wall together in “clusters.” Use one power
supply module, one Quad Input Manager Module and (up to) four LCD tiles in
each cluster. Pick a rectangle of LCD tiles and connect them all to the same power
supply module and the same Quad Input Manager Module. And then use the
same power supply module to power that Quad Input Manager Module.
Note: For most configurations of the wall, you can choose any arrangement of rectangles.
But for configurations that will have multiple sub walls, you will want to plan your
configuration before choosing your clusters of LCDs. If you’re not sure how to arrange the
clusters, choose a 2 x 2 configuration. See "Understanding Wall Configuration" on page 101
for more information.
