Installation and Configuration

This chapter provides specific hardware and firmware installation and configuration steps.

Adding the display to DMS

The BenQ Device Management Solution (DMS) is a device management platform that allows IT administrators to remotely manage their BenQ interactive displays. For more information on DMS, refer to the DMS user manual.

Tip

Before unboxing each display, IT administrators can add each one to their DMS device list by scanning the device serial number barcode. BenQ recommends performing this step for easier device and firmware management.

1.     Install and launch the DMS app on a mobile device.

2.     Log in with a DMS administrator account.

3.     Tap +.

4.     Scan the serial number barcode on the side of the box.

5.     Enter a device name and description, and then tap Add.

Unboxing

Warning

To prevent serious physical injuries and damages to the display, ensure that the display is installed by at least two qualified technicians. BenQ accepts no liability for installations not performed by a professional technician.

1.     Place the box in an upright position on a clean, dry, stable surface.

2.     Remove the box.

a.  Cut the box straps.

b.  Unfasten the clips.

• If you are unboxing an RP6504, skip this step.

• The RP8604 and RP7504 have four clips in total. To unfasten each clip, simultaneously pinch the handles together, and then pull it out.
