CHAPTER 1: Installation Introduction Overview The HDM-215-3G-TT monitor sets a new standard in LCD monitors for broadcast and professional video applications. It provides a 21.5”, 8-bit, 1920 x 1080 resolution, 16:9 format, anti-glare IPS LCD screen. All video formats are scaled to fit on the screen in the highest quality using 12-bit digital processing, precision scaling and gamma correction to produce the best images possible.
Mounting The HDM-215-3G-TT is designed to be placed on a tabletop or other flat surface. Position either unit at ear/eye level for best high frequency response and visual observation of the display screen. Please adhere to the following clearances:...
Heat Dissipation The ambient temperature near the product should not exceed 40° Celsius (104° Fahrenheit). When rack mounting, adjacent devices can be rack mounted in proximity to the unit if this temperature is not exceeded. Otherwise, allow a 1RU (1.75”/44.45mm) space above and below the unit for air circulation. For table top operation, in warm environments, allow an inch of space above and below the unit for air circulation.
Compliance This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
