When the intended use is primarily for standing adults, we recommend that the centre of the
interaction zone should be approximately 900mm / 3’ from floor level.
•
If the intended use is primarily for seated adults, wheelchair users or standing children, the centre of
the interaction zone should be approximately 750mm / 2’ 6” from floor level.
The STRATOS™ Inspire casing incorporates cooling fans that pull air in from one side of the unit and out at
the other, through the fan inlets / outlets (5).
To avoid unnecessary noise, the fans operate according to the internal temperature of the unit. In normal use,
the fans will usually operate at slow speed. Intensive use or elevated external temperatures will cause the fans
to run faster.
STRATOS™ Inspire is rated to operate at ambient air temperatures between 0°C and 40°C / 32°F to 104°F.
A thermal cut-out is used to restrict operation should internal temperatures reach an unsafe level (see
below). Below 0°C, condensation may affect the performance of the LEAP Motion® camera.
When installing STRATOS™ Inspire, take care not to block or obstruct the fan vents. For this reason, when
mounting the unit part-recessed (see below), the wall thickness in the area of the fan vents should not exceed
10mm (3/4”). Ensure that no solid objects block airflow for a distance of at least 50mm / 2” in any direction
from each fan vent
STRATOS™ Inspire incorporates a standard VESA 100 x 100 mount (also known as a VESA
MIS-D, 100 mount), similar to that found on televisions, monitors, soundbars and other
AV equipment. This makes it compatible with a broad range of branded and generic
mounting devices (‘VESA mounts’).
VESA mounts are usually supplied with a range of hardware, including the M4 bolts
required to fit STRATOS™ Inspire to the mount. Four M4x10mm bolts are also supplied
with the product for this purpose.
When using a VESA mount with STRATOS™ Inspire, ensure that the surface it is mounted
on can support the unit weight of 3.1 kg (4 lb), plus the weight of any stand or mounting
hardware used.
In installations that use a TV or monitor mounted directly to a wall or
vertical plinth, STRATOS™ Inspire can be fitted directly to the screen using a
conventional soundbar VESA mount connected to the VESA mounts on the
screen used. Soundbar VESA mounts (also called ‘Soundbar Fitting Kits’) are
generally universal, i.e. designed to fit multiple screen sizes, soundbar layouts
and VESA patterns. This makes them ideal for this purpose.
When mounting below a screen, ensure that the screen’s own mounting
bracket or stand can support the additional weight of the STRATOS™ Inspire
and the chosen mounting hardware.
Soundbar VESA mounts are fitted to the displays’ own VESA mount, normally
at the two lower bolt positions. The soundbar mounts are then fitted to the
STRATOS™ Inspire using suitable M4 bolts (maximum penetration 9 mm
(3/8”).
By taking advantage of the universal nature of soundbar mounts, it is possible
to vary the height and orientation of STRATOS™ Inspire relative to the screen
to optimise the position of the haptic interaction zone.
