(Take proper precautions to prevent pinching the power cord or signal cables)
3.2.4 Mounting surface warping
The display section incorporates glass. Before mounting the product, perform the following to confirm that the display
is free of warps exceeding 1 mm.
1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string of maximum 0.1-mm diameter through the bolt mount
openings. Strings thus arranged should be completely free of slack.
2 Measure the clearance (L) between the strings at their point of intersection. Distortion is expressed by: Distortion =
L x 2.
3 If L is found to be 0, pass the strings through the other bolt mount openings and repeat the measurements. Any
value of L greater than 0 indicates the presence of distortion. If the measured values in both cases is 0, the distortion
is negligible.
