Interactivity Kit to a MicroTiles array it is important that the A CAUTION construction of the array is performed only by trained personnel It is critical that the alignment between tiles and the screen gaps are accurate to make sure that the Interactivity Kit functions properly The Interactivity Kit can accommodate a range of array sizes from 3 x 1 to 16 x 6 The instructions and illustrations within this guide are for building a 3 x 2 MicroTiles array with an Interactivity Kit When you build an array that is smaller or larger than a 3 x 2 use these instructions as a guide but note the following e The light bar connectors between the rows are not required fora 3 x 1 e Arrays larger than a 3 x 2 incorporate additional connectors sensor bars and light bars depending on the number of additional rows and columns Foot Installation MicroTiles Only The feet have been modified to accommodate the Interactivity Kit and are different than the NOTICE existing MicroTiles feet If you install an Interactivity Kit onto an existing Microtiles array you MUST remove the existing feet and replace them with the specific feet for this kit When you mount an array onto a base structure make sure that the center foot is pushed forward so that the Interactivity Kit adapter plate clears the pedestal Install the MicroTiles array using the modified feet that are provided with the Interactivity Kit rather than the standard feet For details on how
