Installation Considerations

High-Altitude Operation ➤

Mounting the PlasmaView on ➤ a Wall or Table Stand

Proper installation of your PlasmaView will ensure the highest possible picture quality. Whether you are installing the PlasmaView temporarily or permanently, you should take the following into account to ensure that it performs optimally.

Due to the design of all plasma glass panels made by every manufacturer, and the interaction between ambient air pressure and the plasma gases contained inside of the panel, reliable operation of your plasma display cannot be assured during operation at certain high-altitude locations.

Vidikron has found the VP-6500VHD to operate reliably at altitudes of up to 6000 MSL (mean sea level). The VP-6500VHDa has been found to operate reliably at altitudes of up to 9000 MSL.

At higher elevations, each panel may react differently, depending upon the altitude, air pressure, humidity and other meteorological factors. If you are planning to use this product at a location above 9000 feet, please contact Vidikron technical support for further information.

To install the PlasmaView, you will need either an optional table stand or wall-mounting kit. The PlasmaView cannot be installed on its own.

If you do decide to wall-mount the PlasmaView, ensure that the wall-mount bracket is installed according to the instructions included with it. The wall must be capable of supporting a redundant weight factor three (3) times the weight of the display, or be reinforced.

Vidikron recommends that this be done by a custom installation specialist.

Use only a Vidikron-approved wall-mount kit (Vidikron part number

Note VIHK-000315 or equivalent) or table stand (Vidikron part number VIHK-000320 or equivalent) that is specifically designed for your display.

You can attach your optional mounts or stand to the PlasmaView in either of two ways:

• While it is upright.
