Step by step

  1. Pick the wall and height. Mount it on the wall everyone faces, with the center of the screen at roughly seated eye level to slightly above, and check the wall and mount are rated for its weight. See 50" UR640S UHD Signage TV mounting and placement.

  2. Connect power and cables. Connect the power cord. Then connect the cables your setup needs (Inputs: 2x HDMI (side), HDMI ARC, 1x USB-A, RJ45, RS-232C). Long runs may need the manufacturer's extender.

  3. Update the firmware. Update to the latest firmware before you go live. See Updating the firmware below.

  4. Check the picture. Connect the source, check the input switches automatically, and look at the picture from the farthest seat for glare and readable text.

Updating the firmware

Update to the latest firmware before you go live, using the manufacturer's app or the device's settings.

  • Don't unplug power or USB while an update runs.
  • Update one room first, check it, then roll out to the rest.
