WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide On a typical 20A, 115V circuit, no more than two WN-5220-S displays may be installed. This allows an extra current margin. If any circuit used to power one or more WN-5220-S displays is not a dedicated circuit, the additional electrical load placed on the circuit by other equipment must be considered. WARNING Displays that are intended for 240V configuration must have a properly rated power supply cord and attachment plug supplied by the installer.
Clarity Visual Systems Clearance Normal maintenance, such as lamp module and air filter replacement, can be performed from the front or rear of the WN-5220-S. Maintain sufficient clearance to allow easy access from the front. A minimum of 4 feet is recommended. For full maintenance from the rear, the minimum recommended clearance is 3 feet. To allow proper cooling, the minimum required clearance to the rear of the display should be 6 inches.
WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide Mechanical Setup, Standard Screen Install the WN-5220-S in the desired position and connect the power and signal cables. See the following section for an explanation of the cabling configuration. Figure 1 Connecting display units To setup the WN-5220-S display in a video wall configuration, follow these steps: 1. Grasp the screen on each side at the bottom The “screen” you are removing is 2 or 3 inches thick.
Clarity Visual Systems 4. Assemble the lower row first. Line up the legs for the bottom row as straight as possible. Insert a ¼” X 2 ½” bolt through the holes as shown in Figure 1. Tighten a nut securely on this bolt. Secure the legs to the floor using the tapped 5/16-18 holes in the front and rear of the legs when stacking more than two units high or use the optional BAS-520 base to secure the WN-5220-S. 5. Stack the next higher row.

Then the Adapter Plate is adjusted to make its corners square and to align correctly with its neighbors. Then the screen is reinstalled and adjusted in or out. Installing a video wall with Ultra-Thin Mullion Screens is a little more complex than installing the wall with standard mullion screens.
Clarity Visual Systems Alignment Procedure in Detail Read through all the detailed parts of each numbered step before starting it. 1. Remove the screens from all the display units. Look down on the top of the screen and locate the two retaining screws. Remove these screws, using the 5/64-inch Allen hex wrench, and set them aside. Grab the sides of the screen, or use the finger holes, and lift it up about half an inch (one centimeter), and remove it from the Adapter Plate. Set it aside. 2.

Measure the diagonals again. Repeat this process until you are satisfied that the two diagonals are the same. This means the Adapter Plate is a perfect rectangle with square corners. 4. Working along the bottom row in both directions, align each of the adapter plates, using the Alignment Tool.
Clarity Visual Systems display (#3) and align it to the center display, following the steps 4.C. through 4.F. 5. Align the adapter plates on the rest of the rows, working upward. Start with a display at the end of the row. Align display #4 to display #3. Put the Alignment Tool on the outside edge of #3. One of the upper guide pins should now fit the Alignment Hole in #4. Loosen the bottom Locking Screw in #4 and make it fit.

CAUTION 115 Volt Users - Set the red voltage switch at the power plug on the power supply to 115V.
Clarity Visual Systems 2. Press the remote control ON button to power up each Display You will hear a ‘beep,” and the sound of the internal fans. The lamp will come on, but will require approximately 5 minutes to fully warm up. There is a built-in delay from when you press the remote’s ON button to when the lamp lights. The extent of the delay depends on the Monitor ID Unit setting. The two switches have a total number of 256 individual Monitor ID settings.

WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide A helpful technique to use when adjusting the colors and gray shades is to “overshoot” as you adjust to emphasize the effect that the current adjustment is having to the overall image, and then back off to fine tune. This helps to give an intuitive feel for the process. It is often helpful to switch between the internal white and gray patterns and actual video images to fine tune the system.

WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide Cleaning and Maintenance Use the procedures in this section to remove and replace WN-5220-S modules as needed to maintain trouble-free operation. Screen The WN-5220-S has two screen options: • The standard screen has a mullion about 1/8 inch (3 mm) wide. The mullion is a strip of sheet metal surrounding the screen which holds it in place. • The Ultra-Thin Mullion Screen, or mullionless screen, does not th have the 1/8 inch strip of sheet metal around the screen.
Clarity Visual Systems Removing Standard Mullion Screens CAUTION For the standard screens, with the wider mullion, the screen may be removed by hand from stand-alone displays without damaging the screen. Where screen edges are adjacent to each other in a video wall, removing the screen without a screen removal tool may damage the female part of the screen latch. In video wall configurations, use the SRT-100 Screen Removal Tool (see Options on page 2) to prevent damage to the screen.
WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide 3. Squeeze the handle of the SRT-100 Squeezing the handle of the removal tool pulls one screen out far enough to let it “pop” out at that corner. The tool uses the neighboring screen for leverage. 4. Repeat for all four corners Remove the screen carefully and set it aside. These 2 parts push against the mullion of the neighboring screen.
Clarity Visual Systems Removing Ultra-Thin Mullion Screens Holding screw The thin mullion display screens consist of two basic parts. There is the screen itself and the screen it is held in, which is an assembly about 2¾ inches (7 cm) thick. This screen attaches to the second part, an Adapter Plate which is about 2 inches (5 cm) thick. The Adapter Plate is mounted on the front of the display unit.
WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide for Standard Mullion screens only, by first removing the screen (see Removing Standard Mullion Screens on page 17), or from the rear by removing the lamp service access cover. Lamps are most easily replaced from the rear for Thin Mullions Screens. WARNING Before servicing the display, always switch the AC power off at the rear panel power switch and remove the power cord.
Clarity Visual Systems Air Filter Length of time between air filter replacements depends on the environment in which the display is operated. Air filter cleanliness should be periodically checked and the air filter replaced when dirty, at a minimum of every 3,000 hours of operation. An excessively dirty air filter can block air flow to the optical assembly and cause excessive heat buildup inside the display.
WN-5220-S VideoWall User’s Guide Cleaning the Screen To clean smudges from the screen, use a soft cloth and a nonabrasive, non-hydrocarbon cleaner. Use a good quality optical cleaning solution and lint-free paper wipes. Cleaning the Mirrors The WN-5220-S’s optical mirrors can become dusty in normal operation, particularly if the operating environment is dusty. When the WN-5220-S is serviced, these mirrors may also accumulate accidental smudges and fingerprints.
