Display Bracket Assembly

Read Steps 2-4 to understand how the HORIZON10 assembles before starting the installation process. The display can be installed flat or with a slight angle for a better viewing angle. Loosen or remove the screws on the Display Bracket. (FIG. A). Loosen the screws, or move the screws for the best viewing angle (FIG. B / C).

NOTE: For Display to be waterproof, you must install 6 waterproof plugs in the screw holes that will not be used for mounting. Image above has 4 screws installed

Display Assembly

The Display Bracket can be mounted Right-side up (FIG.D) or Up-side down (FIG.E). Determine how the Display Bracket needs to be mounted for your application. NOTE: Ensure the LVDS Display Cable can still plug-in after the bracket is in the desired location (FIG F). You may need to rotate the Display Bracket for the LVDS cable to plug-in properly (FIG. D/E). Use four M4 x 10 supplied screws to hold the bracket in place. NOTE: Do not tighten the screws until the last installation step.

Align the 4 shoulder bolts on the Display Bracket attached to the LCD Panel with the 4 key holes on the Nose Bracket and push forward.
Once the 4 shoulder bolts are aligned properly, slide the LCD assembly to the left to lock the assembly to the Nose Piece.

Image displays how the pins line up with the openings on the Nose Piece.
NOTE: Radio module has been removed to better understand how the pieces align together.
