[Ham-Computers] RE: VESA standards for mounting

[Hsu, Aaron (NBC Universal)]

Greetings all from Hong Kong (I'm currently on vacation).

Try this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_Display_Mounting_Interface


Looks like M4 screws.  The wiki article mentions 10mm depth, but I also
found references on the web mentioning 6mm depth.  Also, the VESA
standard size is arbitrary - the vendor can specify a different
diameter, thread pitch, and length.

So, start with an M4 sized screw, then try M5, M6, and M8.

73,

    Trying to find a section in the VESA standards for the size screw
needed to mount my Acer LCD monitor. Does anyone happen to know this? I
expect it's a metric size, but that's about as close as I can get.

Tnx es 73
