LED components used in X-series tiles are ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) sensitive. To prevent the possibility of destroying LED
components do not touch either in operation or while switched off. Always use ESD-gloves.
Risk of electric shock / Risk of fire:
To protect against risk of fire caused by overloading of power cables, the number of tiles connected in parallel is limited. See table below.

Each power source cable should be protected by a circuit breaker or fuses rated 16 A / 250 VAC (15 A / 250 VAC in the USA and
Canada). Note that one tile requires 100-240 VAC, 16 A, 50-60 Hz, X2: 0.55 A at 230 VAC, X1.6: 0.85 A at 230 VAC
Disconnect device:
When the appliance inlets of the individual tiles are not accessible, the socket outlets supplying the rack shall be installed near the
equipment and be easily accessible, or a readily accessible general disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
This equipment MUST be earthed:
In order to protect against risk of electric shock, the installation should be properly grounded. Defeating the purpose of the grounding type
plug will expose you to the risk of electric shock.
Power system:
It is recommended to use a TN-S power distribution system (a power distribution system with a separate neutral and grounding
conductor) in order to avoid large ground current loops due to voltage differences in the neutral conductor. The total electrical installation
should be protected by an appropriately rated disconnect switch, circuit breakers, over voltage protector and Ground Fault Current
Interrupters. The installation shall be done according to the local electrical installation codes. In Europe special attention should be given
to HD 60364, Harmonization Document for electrical installation of buildings. In Germany VDE 0100 should be adhered to. In America,
special attention should be given to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Mains cords:
The power cords delivered with this system have special properties for safety. They are not user serviceable. If the power cords are
damaged, replace them only with new ones. Never try to repair a power cord.
LED's:
The LED's used on the X-series tiles are fragile. Never push with a hard or sharp object onto the lens of the LED as this may cause
damage to the LED. The maximum allowed load upon the lens of the LED is 300 gram/LED. Be careful when installing a shader upon the
X-series tiles. Shaders only fit in one direction and this should be verified before pushing into final position. Use your bare fingers (not
nails) to press the shader over the LED's. Use your finger nails to press upon the framework of the shader between the LED's (not upon
the LED's) to push the shader in its final position.
Do not hot plug:
Do not hot plug any cables. Damage to the connector pins may occur. Resulting damage is not covered under warranty.
Maximum allowed display height:
The maximum height of a X-series display in a base stand configuration is 9 tiles X1.x or 10 tiles X2. The maximum height of a X-series
display in a hanging (truss) configuration is 16 tiles.
1.4 Proper usage
Proper usage of X-series tiles
•
No part of the X-series tile can come in contact with any type of moisture.
•
No part of the X-series tile can come in contact with any type of abrasive.
•
No part of the X-series tile can come in contact with any type of dust.
•
No part of the X-series tile can come in contact with any type of corrosive substance.
•
Using the LED product in an environment with high corrosive gasses (e.g. Sulphur) can lead to discoloration of the materials. This
discoloration gives a change in brightness of the product. This could lead to uniformity differences and possibly also to failures. Each
use of the product in this kind of environment needs to be checked up-front with the supplier.
•
X-series tiles are to be used in environments meeting the operating specifications.
•
X-series tiles are not to be used in environments that are subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines
(cracked oil) or similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the LED's optics, degrading performance).
•
X-series tiles are not to be exposed to extreme localized heat or cold exceeding the temperature specifications.
