VPM Features The VPM VESA Pole Mount packs many features that make it one of the best mounts for flat-panels up to 32”. Its attachment head uses a 100 x 100mm VESA mounting pattern to fit a majority of flat-panels (from 75 x 75mm to 200 x 200mm when combined with the optional adapter plate). For the optimal viewing angle, adjust the mount using its Radial Glide® feature, which offers up to 12° (22° with optional tilt adapters) of smooth adjustment in any direction.
VPM Opening the Collar Clasp Remove the M8 x 40mm hex screws from the sides of the VPM to open the collar clasp and begin installation. Proceed to the “Installing the Fixed Tilt Adapters (Optional)” section.
VPM Selecting the Mounting Hardware 1) Insert a small straw or toothpick into the threaded inserts found on the back of the flat-panel. 2) Use a pencil to mark the depth of the threaded insert on the small straw or toothpick. 3) Mark the straw or toothpick 1/8” above the depth of the threaded insert, as shown in Figure 1. 4) Insert the small straw or toothpick into the remaining threaded inserts to compare and verify their depth using the straw or toothpick’s 1/8” allowance mark.
VPM Installing the Adapter Plate (Optional) What is the VESA pattern on your flat-panel? • If 75 x 75mm or 200 x 200mm, proceed to the 75 x 75mm or 200 x 200mm section. • If 200 x 100mm, go to the 200 x 100mm section on page 9. • If 100 x 100mm, go to the “Attaching the Flat-Panel to the VPM Mount” section on page 10. The adapter plate has a 100mm x 100mm VESA pattern, but that is only for attaching the plate to the attachment head of the VPM.
VPM Installing the Adapter Plate (cont’d) 200 x 100mm Optional fixed tilt adapters not shown. If you have a recessed mounting pattern, use the universal spacers to compensate for the indentation. Attach the VESA Adapter Plate to the back of the flat panel using six (6) M4 flat head screws (Figure 1). See Figure 2 for a clearer view of the 200mm x 100mm pattern (marked B).
VPM Attaching the Flat-Panel to the VPM Mount Choose one of the following options. Drawings not to scale. Optional fixed tilt adapters not shown. No Fixed Tilt Adapters Are you attaching the VPM directly to the flat-panel, or are you using an adapter plate? • If directly to the flat-panel, insert Flat- Panel four (4) M4 x 10mm screws through the VPM attachment head and 100 x 100mm pattern of the flat-panel (see page 14) (Figure 1).
VPM Attaching the VPM Mount to a Pole Drawings not to scale. Mounting hardware not shown. Re-insert the M8 x 40mm hex screws or insert M8 x 40mm security screws into the two halves of the VPM to clasp them around the pole at the desired position (Figure 1). At least two qualified people are needed to attach the flat-panel and VPM to a pole. If you are using a 2” pipe, replace the M8 x 40mm hex screws with M8 x 60mm security screws (Figure 2). Proceed to the “Adjusting the VPM Mount Tension” section.
VPM Adjusting the VPM Mount Tension Your VPM ships from the factory pre-tensioned. However, you can fine-tune adjust the amount of pressure required to move the attachment head of the VPM. Use the enclosed Allen wrench to adjust the tension by loosening or tightening the M10 set screws on each side of the VPM. Do not overtighten or remove the set screws. M10 Set Screw Installing Multiple VPMs (Optional) You can attach multiple VPM mounts to a pole, such as for back-to-back flat-panel installations.
