STARTING POINT Congratulations on selecting a rugged field-ready Glider, the most advanced flat panel display available. SHIPMENT CONTENTS ABOUT USER MANUAL The Glider shipping box contains the following: The User Manual comes in two formats: printed hardcopy or CDROM. This Manual is also available on the Z Microsystems website (www.zmicro.com).
STARTING POINT PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Glider is an advanced spacesaving drawer mount high-end rugged liquid crystal display. The Glider can be oriented for a portrait format. The LCD display can quickly swing up into a reading position. The unique Glider design allows flat panels up to 21.3” to fold into a 2U (3.5”) drawer space in standard 19” racks and transit cases. Specially designed quickrelease locks hold the compact folded Glider securely in place during storage.
STARTING POINT TOOLS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION Required Tools and Equipment: • Flathead screwdriver with about 10" shaft. • Phillips screwdriver with about 10" shaft. WARNING: To avoid shock hazard: • Adjustable wrench or box wrenches. • Do not remove the covers around the Glider. • Do not connect or disconnect the Glider during an electrical storm. • The power cord plug must be connected to a properly wired and grounded power outlet.
INSTALLATION SLIDE REMOVAL With the Glider laid on a workbench, press down to release the Z-Locks on each side of the front of the Glider to slide the side rails back. The slide rails will reach a stop about half way back. This is a safety stop to prevent the Glider from sliding out too far while mounted in the rack. Simultaneously press in the safety catches on each slide rail and slide the side rails all the way off the back of the Glider. 7 Doc# 27-0017UM Issued 08/03 Rev 1.
INSTALLATION INSTALL THE SLIDES IN CABINET FRAME Each slide unit includes the slide rail, the front ZLock mount and the rear mount. The top notch of the ZLock must align with the slide rail top ridge. As seen from this reverse view, align the slider into the Z-Lock bracket grooves so all three screw holes show. On the front of the cabinet frame, use three Phillips screws and washers per side to secure the right and left Z-Lock mounts holding the sliders.
INSTALLATION INSTALL THE GLIDER IN CABINET FRAME The Glider slides should move in and out easily. If not, check alignment of the slider and Z-Lock mount. Pull the two Glider slides out until they lock. Hold the Glider on each side over the back set of rollers, with the front into your stomach. The Glider MUST be level. This step may best be done with two people, one on each side of the slide rails.
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION TEST The Glider should easily close completely. Slide the Glider in and out several times. The Glider should slide in and out easily. Because of variances in cabinet frames, there may need to be some adjustments of the Glider slide system for best fit and movement of the Glider in and out. If the Glider binds when rolling in and out, perform the following procedures. FINAL ADJUSTMENTS Slide the Glider partially out.
INSTALLATION INSTALL CABLES NOTE: Be sure the AC supply is properly grounded. WARNING: Be sure all electrical power to the cabinet is off before connecting any of the cables. WARNING: There is a key guide for alignment on the cables. Be sure the cable plug and receptacles are aligned properly using the key guide. Misalignment can cause short circuiting. The power supply is mounted on the back of the Glider tray. Be sure the power plug going in to the power supply is screwed all the way in.
