Remote Display Pedestal Requirements

Listed below are the site preparation requirements for the Remote Pedestal. The Equipment Dimensions section includes dimensional drawings for the Pedestal and the pre-attached base plate

Concrete Slab

A 0.23” (6mm) thick base plate is affixed to the pedestal to provide a stable platform. Mount the base plate to a 1/2” thick concrete slab, roughly the same dimension as the base plate. An opening for conduit egress is located at the center of the base plate.

For new installations, a minimum of four studs (supplied by the installer) projecting from the slab is required.

This figure shows a pedestal slab example.

Conduit Runs

The pedestal requires three independent conduits, AC Power, Audio, and VGA over Cat 5e cable.

For new installations, Oracle MICROS recommends that three ferrous metal conduits (as defined in AC Power Requirements section) be run to the slab through the opening in the base plate.

Alternately, the conduits can enter the pedestal from outside the enclosure. The figure below displays the locations of the 1” OD conduit punch-outs – on the front, back, and sides of the pedestal.

This figure shows pedestal alternate conduit entry dimensions.

Conduit - AC Power

Ensure the AC line is installed in accordance with the Preferred AC Power System as defined in AC Power Requirements section.

Conduit - Audio

The Audio Conduit is reserved car detection and audio between the pedestal and store. The in-store audio system is currently installed by third parties. The Pedestal provides industry standard mounting locations for the speaker and microphone.

Conduit - VGA over Category 5e Cable

Ensure one conduit is dedicated to the Category 5e or better cable run from the in-store OCC. Therefore, a minimum of Category 5e cable run is required between the OCC to the Remote Pedestal location. Ensure this cable is installed, terminated, and certified in the same manner as any Cat 5e cable run.

Pedestal AC Outlet

An AC outlet is required within the pedestal housing. The figure below shows the area available in the Pedestal that is used to mount the outlet box. Local electrical codes may require a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) outlet to be mounted at least two feet above ground level in areas prone to flooding.

The preferred method is to mount the outlet box directly to conduit, positioned at a height above ground level that meets local electrical codes.
