Flat Display Mounting Interface
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
The Flat Display Mounting Interface (FDMI), also known as VESA Mounting Interface Standard (MIS) or colloquially as VESA mount, is a family of standards defined by the Video Electronics Standards Association for mounting flat panel monitors, TVs, and other displays to stands or wall mounts.[1] It is implemented on most modern flat-panel monitors and TVs.
As well as being used for mounting monitors, the standards can be used to attach a small PC to the mount or function as a monitor mount.
The first standard in this family was introduced in 1997 and was originally called Flat Panel Monitor Physical Mounting Interface (FPMPMI), it corresponds to part D of the current standard.

Variants[edit]
Most sizes of VESA mount have four screw-holes arranged in a square on the mount, with matching tapped holes on the device. The horizontal and vertical distance between the screw centers was originally 100 mm. A 75 mm × 75 mm layout was defined for smaller displays. Later, variants were added for screens with as small as a 4-inch diagonal.
The FDMI was extended in 2006 with additional screw patterns that are more appropriate for larger TV screens. Thus the standard now specifies 7 sizes, each with more than one variant. These are referenced as parts B to F of the standard or with official abbreviations, usually prefixed by the word "VESA".
Unofficially, the variants are sometimes referenced as just "VESA" followed by the pattern size in mm, which is slightly ambiguous for the names "VESA 50" (4 possibilities), "VESA 75" (2 possibilities) and "VESA 200" (3 possibilities). However, if "VESA 100" is accepted as meaning the original variant ("VESA MIS-D, 100"), then all but "VESA MIS-E" and "VESA MIS-F, 200" have at least one unique dimension that can be used in this way, as can be seen from the tables below.

Notes
If a screen is heavier or larger than specified in table 1, it should use a larger variant from the table, for instance a 30-in LCD TV weighing more than 50 lb (23 kg) would need to use a part F mount.
The weight limits were unusually chosen as round numbers in kg or lb for different sizes.
The screw lengths for part C, D and E become whole numbers when adding a 2.6 mm thick bracket (which is how the standard describes them).[2]
The screw lengths for part F are minimum / maximum / hole maximum, as in: M6 screws must go at least 9mm in but at most 10mm in, and the hole might not be deeper than 12mm.[2]

Notes for center mounts
The mounting pattern must be centered between left and right of the screen case.
For part D and E, it must also be centered between top and bottom (since 2006).

Notes for the edge mounts:
x is "T", "B", "R" or "L" for "Top", "Bottom", "Right" or "Left" as seen from the back in landscape mode.
More than one x or "C" can be specified for a screen with more than one set of mounting holes.
For left or right edge mounting, Swap width and height, so the brackets will look the same with respect to all 4 edges.
The rounded rectangles and distances (see below) do not apply towards the edge, except that the surface on the screen need not touch the bracket beyond them.
The distance from the edge of the screen case to the center of the first holes is ±0.5 mm.
Common notes for variants B to E[edit]
Screws are standard M4 machine screws as long as the bracket is thick plus the length given in table 1.
Each hole must be within ±0.25 mm of its nominal position.
Each hole in the bracket is 5 mm in diameter to allow for this tolerance in both screen and bracket.
If the screen manufacturer included different screws they must be used, not the ones that came with the bracket.
If the screen manufacturer provides their own mount, it may be attached in any way as long as it can be removed.
The clearance area must be a completely flat surface at most "max. clearance" above or below the general back surface of the screen.
The clearance area is a rounded rectangle whose sides extends at least 8.5 mm beyond the hole centers and with a corner radius of at most 7 mm.
The bracket is within a rounded rectangle whose sides extend at most 7.5 mm beyond the hole centers and with a corner radius of at least 6 mm.
The part of the bracket laying against the clearance area must be at least 12.5 mm wide, it may be straight or diagonal.
The two extra holes in type E brackets are in the middle of the long sides of the hole pattern, see the drawing.
The screen manufacturer should warrant that filling the standard holes with the specified screws will be able to hold the screen in any direction.
The bracket manufacturer should warrant that the bracket can carry the maximum weight from table 1 when using all the specified screws.
More details can be found by purchasing a copy of the standard itself,[2] including rules to ensure cables don't prevent using the mounts.

yn is Y if the screen can be turned 90 degrees for use in portrait mode, N if it cannot do so without falling apart.
6/8 is 6 for M6 screws, 8 for M8 screws.
The 2006 edition of the VESA standard is very clear that the type F pattern is always square, and that the odd sizes 300×300, 500×500, 700×700 and 900×900 are allowed too.
Common notes for variant F[edit]
Screws are standard M6 or M8 machine screws as long as the bracket is thick plus the length given in table 1.
Each hole must be within ±0.5 mm of its nominal position.
If the screen manufacturer included different screws they must be used, not the ones that came with the bracket.
If the screen manufacturer provides their own mount, it may be attached in any way as long as it can be removed.
The hole pattern is a square with holes along the sides only, holes are every 100 mm along the edges, there are no holes inside the square.
The bracket is two strips, that fit either the left and right or the top and bottom row of holes, the holes along the two other edges of the square are not used at the same time.
The screen manufacturer may omit some of the holes except the outer corners, if the remaining holes are enough to carry the weight of the screen and its official add-ons (such as their own sound bar).
The mounting area must be the part of the screen furthest towards the back (so no part of the screen may extend further back).
The mounting area touching the bracket must be at least 35 mm wide, and the two halves of the bracket itself may be up to 100 mm wide each.
Around each actual mounting hole in the screen, there must be a gripping area for the bracket at least 10 mm (M6)/12 mm (M8).
The 35mm wide areas touching the bracket may deviate at most ±1 mm from complete flatness.
The screen manufacturer should warrant that filling the provided holes in either the horizontal or vertical edge (at users choice) with the specified screws will be able to hold the screen in any direction.
The bracket manufacturer should warrant that the bracket can carry the advertised weight when using as few of the included screws (but at least the 4 corners) as would be needed if those were standard industrial grade screws.
The end user or contractor should warrant that the wall, ceiling, floor or wherever else the bracket is hung can handle the load safely and within the local building code.
More details can be found by purchasing a copy of the standard itself,[2] including rules to ensure cables don't prevent using the mounts.
Common deviations from variant F[edit]
In practice, many screens that almost comply with part F of the standard deviate in various minor ways, and most brands of compliant brackets are designed to handle these deviations with little or no trouble for the end user:
Non-square patterns, such as 600×200 mm and 600 x 400 mm[3] and 800 × 400 mm. These were apparently permitted by the version 1 (2002) standard.[2]:vii-viii The labeling for these may have been "MIS-F, width, height" e.g. "MIS-F, 600, 200" for 600×200 mm.[better source needed]
A somewhat strange pattern of 280×150 mm[citation needed].
M4 holes in smaller part F patterns such as 200×200 mm.[4][better source needed]
Various protrusions on the screen extending a few millimeters further back than the mounting surfaces.[4][better source needed]
Compliance[edit]
Manufacturers of FDMI compliant devices can license the use of a hexagonal "VESA mounting compliant" logo.[5]
Many compliant or almost compliant devices do not display the logo, as is reflected by the absence of most key vendors from VESA's own public list of licensed manufacturers.[5] Of the members of the standard committee (Ergotron, Peerless Industries, HP, Samsung, Sanus, ViewSonic and Vogel's), only Ergotron is on the list.
As mentioned above under Variant F, there are many almost compliant screens on the market, and some of those use the "VESA" name loosely to refer to their similar mounting patterns. Fortunately many brackets (mounts) from reputable vendors such as Ergotron, Invision and Vogel are designed to accommodate most of the deviating models, thus limiting the effect on end users.[citation needed]

His films include Heat (1995), Con Air (1997), and Desperado (1995), the latter with frequent collaborator Robert Rodriguez. Trejo is perhaps most recognized as the character Machete, originally developed by Rodriguez for the Spy Kids series of movies and later expanded into Trejo's own series of films aimed at a more adult audience. He has appeared in TV shows such as Breaking Bad, The X-Files, and Sons of Anarchy. He also appeared in the spoof movie Delta Farce as the killer Carlos Santana who in the movie keeps getting mistaken for the musician.

Early life[edit]
Trejo was born in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, of Mexican ancestry.[2][3][4] He is the son of Alice Rivera and Dan Trejo, a construction worker,[5][6] and a second cousin of filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, though the two were unaware that they were related until the filming of Desperado.[7][8] Prior to his film career Trejo worked as a labor foreman in construction.
Throughout the 1960s, Trejo was in and out of jail and prison in California; Trejo has suggested that his physical appearance contributed to his constantly getting into trouble.[9] There are conflicting accounts of his prison chronology. By one account, his final term in custody ended in 1972;[4] by another account, he did time in a juvenile offenders' camp and six California prisons between 1959 and 1969.[10][11] He recalled that his last prison term was five years. While serving in San Quentin Prison, he became a champion boxer in that prison's lightweight and welterweight divisions.[4] During this time, Trejo became a member of a twelve-step program, which he credits with his success in overcoming drug addiction. In 2011, he recalled that he had been sober for 42 years.[10]
Career[edit]
Films and television[edit]
While Trejo was working as a youth drug counselor, a teenage patient asked for his assistance dealing with cocaine problems on the set of Runaway Train (1985).[4][12] While there, Trejo was offered a job as an extra in the film's prison scenes. Edward Bunker, himself a former convict, and a well-respected crime author who was writing the screenplay for the film, recognized Trejo, with whom he had done time at San Quentin.[4][12] Bunker, remembering Trejo's boxing skills, offered him $320 per day to train Eric Roberts, one of the movie's stars, for a boxing scene. Director Andrei Konchalovsky liked Trejo's work and decided to offer him a small role in the film as a boxer. It has been widely misreported that Trejo was actually serving time in the prison during filming, when in fact he had been released more than a decade earlier.[citation needed]
Trejo at Muscle Beach
Since then, Trejo has become a prolific actor in both films and television, appearing in five or more movies per year, in various genres. He has appeared in such major releases as Marked for Death (1990), Blood In Blood Out (1993), Desperado (1995), Heat (1995), From Dusk till Dawn (1996), Anaconda (1997), Con Air (1997), The Replacement Killers (1998), Point Blank (1998), Animal Factory (2000), Bubble Boy (2001), Spy Kids (2001), XXX (2002), Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003), Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004), The Devil's Rejects (2005), Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror (2006), Delta Farce (2007), Grindhouse (2007), Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007), Urban Justice (2007, alongside Steven Seagal), Valley of Angels (2008), The Haunted World of El Superbeasto (2009, in which he voices the character of Rico), Machete (2010), Predators (2010), Bad Ass (2012), Reaper (2014), and Range15 (2016).
Trejo is known for his distinctive appearance. In addition to his heavily lined face, scarred from cystic acne and a brawl, and the long mustache he usually sports, he has displayed the large tattoo on his chest for many roles (the tattoo depicts a woman wearing a sombrero).[13][14] He often plays thugs or lowlife characters, although he has also played sympathetic characters in films such as Robert Rodriguez's Spy Kids trilogy, Bubble Boy, and the USA Network series Monk, where art imitated life in his portrayal of a convict roommate of Tony Shalhoub's undercover detective.[citation needed] He also appeared in a season 2 episode of Desperate Housewives, where, as another good-guy character, he was sent by Carlos to help Gabrielle deal with the grief over losing her unborn baby.[citation needed] He voiced the character Enrique on King of the Hill,[citation needed] and Octavio's character on that show is based on his appearance.[citation needed] His role on King of the Hill was referred to in the HBO series Unscripted, where he had a cameo appearance.[citation needed] He also is featured in the episode "Comedy" (season 5, episode 1, aired February 28, 2010) of Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! and an episode of Do IT LIVE with actors Anna Bennett and Claudia Pickering, shot in Downtown Los Angeles, titled "Sebring feat. Danny Trejo".[citation needed][citation needed] He also made guest appearances, as Tortuga (a.k.a. "The Tortoise"), in the noted series Breaking Bad in 2009 and 2010, most notably in the episode "Negro y Azul" which originally aired on April 19, 2009.
Trejo in October 2009
In 2008, Trejo portrayed a Mexican bartender in the daytime soap opera The Young and the Restless.
Regarding his continued growth as a professional actor, Trejo stated that he still cannot believe how fortunate he has been: "I'm so blessed. I'm still scared that somebody's going to wake me up and say, 'Hey, we're still in prison. Let's go to chow".[15] Many of Trejo's characters in Robert Rodriguez movies have been named after knives or sharp instruments: Machete in Spy Kids, Razor Charlie in the From Dusk till Dawn series, Navajas (Spanish for blades) in Desperado, and Cuchillo (Spanish for knife) in Predators.[16] He also played Machete in a trailer made for Rodriguez's film collaboration with Quentin Tarantino, Grindhouse. In 2010, he starred in a full theatrical version of Machete, based on the character, and later in a sequel, Machete Kills, in 2013.
In 2012, Trejo starred alongside Ron Perlman and Charles S. Dutton in Craig Moss’s action film Bad Ass (2012). He played the main character of Vietnam veteran Frank Vega, based on 67-year-old "Epic Beard Man" Thomas Bruso. That same year Trejo again appeared with Perlman in a supporting role in season 4 of the FX network drama Sons of Anarchy.
In 2014, Trejo produced his first film, Ambition, and then produced his second film, the action film Bad Ass, in 2015.[17][clarification needed] In 2015, Trejo appeared in a television commercial for Snickers that aired during Super Bowl XLIX, in which he portrayed Marcia Brady prior to eating the candy bar.[18][19] In 2016, he appeared as himself in TV ads for Sling TV.
In 2017, Trejo appeared on Hell's Kitchen as guest in season 16's final dinner service. He also made a guest appearance on the Rick and Morty episode Pickle Rick voicing the part of Jaguar. [20]
Biopics[edit]
The award-winning independent film Champion (2005), which documents Trejo's life, features Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Steve Buscemi, and Robert Rodriguez.[citation needed] In 2013, Trejo shared his tumultuous journey from convict to movie star with KTTV in Los Angeles in a segment filmed in his own home.[21]
Games[edit]
Trejo appears as a playable character in Def Jam: Fight for NY (2004), a fighting game for which the actor lent his voice and likeness. He also lent his voice to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories (2006) for the character Umberto Robina, who also resembles Trejo.[citation needed] Additionally, he voiced Raul Tejada, a Ghoul, in Fallout: New Vegas (2010). Trejo appeared in the PlayStation Move game The Fight: Lights Out (2010) as an instructor for the player's character, and as himself in the second map pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010); Escalation map pack, on the zombie map Call of the Dead.
Restaurants[edit]
Over the years Trejo has opened a series of successful Los Angeles restaurants. His first was Trejo's Tacos (2016), followed by Trejo's Cantina (2017), and Trejo's Coffee & Donuts (2017) a mobile food truck. His most recent venture will be an expansion of his donut food truck in Las Vegas Nevada. [22]

In Charlie Higson's third The Enemy series novel, The Fear (2011), Orlando Epstein, nicknamed Einstein, makes fun of DogNut's ignorance by introducing himself as Isaac Newton. In retaliation, DogNut says, "my real name's Danny Trejo, but you may call me DogNut. Everyone else does." When Einstein responds, "Okay, Danny", DogNut reflects: "He may not know much about scientists, but Einstein clearly didn't know much about hard-faced, ex-con Mexican action-movie stars."[32]
