Hi,
I am installing two Skyviews in a composite panel. I have in the back of my brain the notion that the case needs to be grounded in a composite panel but I cannot find where it says so in the installation manual.
Can you confirm please that this is necessary and if so the size of the screw fixture used on the casing.
Thanks,
Alan

I have 2 screens mounted in composite panel without any special grounding and they work just fine. :)

It's not normally required to ground the case of a SkyView display, though it has proved helpful to do so to resolve various noise issues.

The screw thread of the ground lug on the rear of the unit has a 4-40 UNC thread, and it is 0.22 inches deep.
