Determining the location of the TV

After the Monitor Plate (MP) has been mounted to the TV, you can now measure the

distance from the bracket holes to the top and bottom of the TV to help determine the

desired height of the TV on your wall. The reason that you need to take these measurements

is because many monitors do not have the mounting location centered on the back of the

monitor. To determine the exact height you want to mount the brackets, use the convenient

Installation Template (IT) rather than holding the TV in place while you do all this measuring.

Always make sure to use a level when placing the template. Measure from the floor up as shown

in Figure 6, and using a pencil, make small marks on the wall to help you determine the

desired TV height.
