Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 1. INTRODUCTION Rosen’s Remote Display System consists of an ultra-thin remote display monitor and a remote electronics box. The remote electronics design provides more mounting options because the video processing electronics box can be located up to 50 feet from the display. The high-definition display monitors are available in a range of sizes and mounting options that allow customers to configure a system that fits their aircraft’s cabin interior.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 1.2.2. RMEB Connector Kits The following connector kits (sold separately) are recommended: Connector kit—26-pin female (P/N 0300-043) Connector kit—25-pin female D-sub (P/N 0300-052) CVBS and SDI connector kit—BNC (P/N 0300-051) Component/RGB, digital HDMI/DVI connector kit—25-pin (P/N 0300-029) 1.2.3.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 2. VIDEO INPUTS The Rosen Remote Display System enables viewers to watch high definition video signals in a variety of formats as well as standard video signals. The 0700-104 remote electronics box supplies the following video inputs; however, the available inputs on other models will vary.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 3.1. RDM Mounting Options The remote monitors are designed for vertical wall/bulkhead mount applications. They can be flush mounted from the back, through an interior wall, or from the front mounting tabs. Proud mounted RDMs must be mounted from the front into the cosmetic back. Minimum fasteners required four 8-32 or eight 4-40; torqued to 7 ± 1 in-lbs.

Cooling and Ventilation Do not block the side fans on the RMEB. The fan openings require a minimum of 4 square inches of free air ventilation – 2 square inches per side. The RDMs do not require any external forced-air cooling. Venting: The RDMs require 4.7 square inches of ventilation top and bottom.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 3.3. Bezels and Mounting An optional semi-proud mount attaches a bezel to bosses around the perimeter of the RDM with wire retaining clips. Install the clips to mounting bosses on the bezel after any custom plating using the Bezel Retention Hardware kit (P/N 0500-021). Figure 11 shows the assembled wire clips on the back of the model 900-style bezel. For further dimensional information, see the Rosen assembly drawing for your specific application.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 4. SYSTEM CONNECTIONS The RDM receives power, control, and serialized video from the RMEB via connectors P3 and P4 on the RMEB from up to 50 feet away, as shown below. The RMEB outputs a serialized video signal via CAT6 cable from P4 and provides conditioned power and control to the RDM via a harness with DB15 connectors from P3. We suggest using shielded harnesses to improve EMI performance. See the wiring tables on the Outline & Installation drawings for details.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 4.2. Pinout Connections There are several ways to connect the remote display system to an aircraft’s entertainment system. Pay close attention to the pinout descriptions on the Outline and Installation drawings to assist in completing the wiring connections. Note: This display is for entertainment purposes only; connect to a non-critical power bus. 5.
Rosen Aviation Remote Display System 6. INITIAL POWER UP Make sure that power is turned off and connect the following harnesses to the RMEB connectors: 1. Ensure positive ground connections on the RMEB housing and monitor chassis grounding lugs. 2. 3. 4. 5. Connect an external IR control or RS-232/RS-485 communication harness to P1. Connect 28VDC power to P2. Attach extra cabling length to the RDM DB 15 pigtail and connect to P3.
