General Information
The FD70ARM-G is a 7" Dual LCD System, utilizing
the latest version of our popular 7”
Widescreen Display. Each arm unit is made of two separate parts, the metal enclosed
LCD screen and the articulating arm.
Built with retrofit aircraft integration in mind, these displays can switch between three
video input sources using the buttons on the bezel or the Infrared Remote.
The arms have both a hinge and a pivot point, can rotate 150° around the attach point at
the base, and 90° at the bottom of the LCD. This mount will allow the monitors to tilt
forward or backward from the passenger up to 20°.

Additional Information
The FD70ARM-G is made of all metal components. The milled aluminium arms represent
the evolution of several design enhancements for an optimum removable mounting
solution. As a dual LCD system, the FD70ARM-G was designed to be used with a base
receptacle; the FDBASE-2G. The following bases can be used: FDBASE-FL, FDBASE-
1G, FDBASE Ver SDI and the FDBASE.
The 7” Widescreen LCDs utilize a state of the art digital video decoding chipset for the
analog video input. The three video sources in order of picture quality are VGA (computer
graphics, like Moving Maps), and two Composite Video (DVD, Camera or VCR). Both
NTSC and PAL formats are auto-detected.
The FD70ARM-G can also be connected to existing video switchers and can take
composite video inputs from selector interface boxes. In this case, multiple input sources
can be selected and displayed on the monitors.
The FD70ARM-G is also available as a single unit in either the left or right configuration.
