Does it matter how I mount the focusing screen designed for CVF digital backs?

The screen have two small notches. I guess they have something to do with how to mount the screen. Should the notches be up- or downwards? Wich corner shall the notches be in.
I´ll be most grateful if anyone who knows, could help me out with this. I can´t fins any information anywhere, so maybe it does not matter at all.
 
The notches are there to distinguish the later "D"type Acute Matte screens from early non "D" type screens.
They serve no other purpose.

If your screen/back has a rectangular shape mount the screen so that the long side is top/bottom.
This goes for the CFV 39 and the CFV 50 backs.

Thanks guys.
As I thought. The notches upwards and of course, the frame in the right direction.
