corrosive liquids).
Do not store the device near sources of heat or fire, open flames or heaters.
Do not allow it to come into contact with fire.
Have suitable fire extinguishers ready (foam or powder) in accordance with safety regulations.
Prevent deep discharge
Deep discharge of the battery pack due to incorrect storage.
Storing the battery packs incorrectly will cause them to discharge completely (deep discharge) and thus
damage them irreparably.
To prevent a deep discharge:
Remove the battery pack from the battery pocket, if the DLT-V72 is not used for a longer period of time
(more than one month).
Charge the battery pack in the DLT-V72 device every six months.

Problems with data transmission via LAN/Ethernet
If problems occur during data transmission over LAN/Ethernet (e.g. data is lost or not detected), the cause of
these problems may be a cable which is too long. Depending on the cable layout and interference from the
environment, it may be impossible to use the cable length of 100 m given in the specification (IEEE 802.3
standard). The solution here is the use of a shorter cable.

9.5. Automatic shut down
Functional description
The DLT-V72 is equipped with an automatic shutdown module.
If wired up accordingly, the DLT-V72 conveniently switches off together with the vehicle’s ignition.
As disconnecting the power supply during operation can lead to data loss, the operating system needs to be
shut down normally using the appropriate hardware and software installed on the system when the ignition is
switched off.
The DLT-V72 is connected to the vehicle with three supply cables.
DC+ and DC- are directly connected to the power supply of the vehicle, the connection is of course run through
fuses. The supply voltage connected is then linked to the DLT-V72’s ignition input via a switch, for example, the
key switch of the ignition (also with a fuse).
Sequence
When the vehicle ignition is turned on or the DLT-V72 <Power> button is pressed, the DLT-V72 checks its
internal temperature and runs a test to confirm that the automatic shutdown function is working.
If this check of the environmental conditions is successful, the DLT-V72 starts the operating system normally.
Once these checks have been successfully completed, the DLT-V72 starts the operating system. No
environmental conditions (e.g. the internal temperature of the device or the state of the ignition input) are
checked for one minute during startup.
After one minute, the DLT-V72’s internal temperature and the state of the ignition input are constantly
monitored.
If the DLT-V72’s internal temperature reaches a critical level, a controlled shutdown of the operating system is
carried out. The computer will remain switched off until the temperature is once again within the permitted
range.
If the ignition input is grounded or isolated during normal operation of the DLT-V72, the device will switch to a
delayed shut-off state.
The device will continue to operate normally in this state until the shut-off delay (e.g. 20 minutes) has elap sed.
If the ignition is turned on again during this shut-off delay, the DLT-V72 will revert to a normal operational state.
Once the shut-off delay (after run time) has elapsed, the operating system will shut down and the device will
automatically shut down (e.g. after one minute or a signal from the operating system).

Device shut down
If the operating system is shut down, all applications will be notified via the Windows message
“WM_QUERYENDSESSION” first.
Every application must then respond within the time set in the registry. If there is no response within the preset
time, the application will be hard-terminated.
It may not be possible to close an application automatically if it has unsaved data. Example: For example, the
WORDPAD.EXE program (included in Windows) cannot be closed automatically if there are unsaved changes.
In such a situation, WORDPAD.EXE will acknowledge the “WM_QUERYENDSESSION” Windows message by
prompting the user to choose whether to save or not.
All applications that can be terminated without user confirmation using the keyboard shortcut <ALT> + <F4> will
normally also respond correctly to the “WM_QUERYENDSESSION” message and therefore do not need to be
hard-terminated.
To ensure that important data is saved correctly, the application must respond appropriately to
“WM_QUERYENDSESSION”, i.e. the backup data must be saved without user confirmation and within the
preset time.

DANGER
12.3.1. Electrically isolated DLT-V72 mounting
Risk of accident on vehicles due to unexpected vehicle emergency stop because of electroconductive connection of the DLT-V72 to the vehicle chassis.
Due to a variety of technical properties of forklifts and forklift trucks, it can be necessary to electrically
isolate DLT-V72 from the chassis of the vehicl e to prevent malf un cti ons .
The necessity of this must be studied on a case-by-case basis, however, it is recommended for vehicles
with potential-free chassis.
For example, using rubber buffers ensures that the terminal has no electrically conducting connection
to the vehicle chassis.
If peripheral equipment (such as scanners, printers, scales or similar), which has its own power supply
unit is used, you must ensure that the power supply units of these peripherals are galvanically
separated from the supply of the vehicle. Moreover, the peripheral equipment and its cabling must be
attached electrically isolated.
If external antennas are being used, you must ensure that the antennas are isolated at the mounting
point on the vehicle chassis.

Electrical installation, cables, cable cover
WARNING
13.1.2. Power cables and fuses
Electric shock, fire due to incorrect cable routing or insufficient grounding.
Use only original Advantech power cables; these meet the specific requirements for low-temperature
flexibility, UV resistance, oil resistance, etc.
Make sure that the power supply cables are run without kinks and are protected (securely protected
against crushing and abrading).
The DLT-V72 may only be connected to a SELV circuit (Safety Extra Low Voltage). The SELV circuit is a
secondary circuit that is designed and prote cted so that its voltag es will not ex ceed a safe v alue both
when operating correctly or if a single error occur s.
The DC+ connecting cable must be protected by a fuse (30 AT max.).
The ignition connecting cable must be protected by a fuse of the following type:
5x20 mm T 125 mA L / 250 V, for ex ample, a Wickma nn 195-125 mA / 250 V.
Observe correct voltage ranges.
Ensure that power supply cables are fused correctly.
Read the labeling on the cable and connect the power supply cable with the correct polarity.
Cut the supply cable to the minimum length. This avoids tangled cables and improves the quality of the
power supply.
Connect the power supply cable to a suitable place. Ensure that the connecting cable has an adequate
cross section and ampacity at the connection poin t.
13.1.3. Observe the potential ratios
On the DLT-V72, the logic ground and the shield ground are firmly connected to each other.
Logic ground is the ground (GND) used to supply the internal parts and components such as the display or
CPU. All cable shields and the housing are connected to shield ground.
The chassis of some forklifts is on DC+. This means that the DLT-V72 chassis is also on DC+. Short circuits
can arise when, for example, the ground potential of a peripheral device is on DC-. This may cause
malfunctions or irreparable damage to the DLT-V72.
Always attach ring tongue of the supply voltage cable to the provided ground bolt situated on the connector
panel.
The other end of the yellow-green power supply cable must be connected to the vehicle’s chassis.
Connect the power supply cable of the DLT-V72 as dire ctly as possible to the battery and not to power
supply lines with a great deal of interference (e.g. the engine power supply) or otherwise affected by
consumers.
Connecting the DLT-V72 to large electrical loads, such as converters for the forklift motor may result in
random restarts, malfunctions and/or irreparable damage to the device.
If you want to connect devices fed by other power sources to the DLT-V72 (e.g. printers), be sure to power
up the peripheral devices at the same time or after the DLT-V72; otherwise, you may encounter start-up
problems, malfunctions or even irreparable damage to the device.
