European Union Directive Compliance
If a Dataliner Message Display is installed within the European Union or EFTA
regions and has a CE mark, the following regulations apply.
EMC Directive
This apparatus is tested to meet Council Directive 89/336/EEC Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) using a technical construction file and the following standards
in whole or in part.
• EN 50081-2EMC – Generic Emission Standard, Part 2 -
Industrial Environment
• EN 50082-2EMC – Generic Immunity Standard, Part 2 -
Industrial Environment
Dataliner products are intended for use in an industrial environment.
Low Voltage Directive
This apparatus is tested to meet Council Directive 73/23/EEC with amendments,
including 93/68/EEC Low Voltage (LVD) using the pertinent sections of the
following standards.
• EN 61131-2:1992Programmable Controllers - Equipment
Requirements and T ests
• EN 60950-1:1992Safety of Information T echnology Equipment
Intended Use of Product
According to these Standards, the factor which determines, for EMC purposes,
whether an apparatus is deemed to be “Industrial” or “Residential, commercial
and light industrial”, is given in Clause 1 of EN50081-2 as follows:
Dataliner DL40 Message Display3
Apparatus covered by this standard is not intended for connection to a public
mains network but is intended to be connected to a power network supplied
from a high- or medium-voltage transformer dedicated for the supply of an
installation feeding a manufacturing or similar plant.
This product is intended for use solely in an industrial environment as defined
above. When installed in Europe, any other application is in contravention of
European Union Directives, and a breach of these laws.
Wiring and Safety Guidelines
Install the Dataliner DL40 display using publication 70E, Electrical Safety
Requirements for Employee Workplaces. In addition to the NFPA general
guidelines, follow these recommendations:
• Connect the Dataliner display to its own branch circuit. The input power
source should be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker rated at no more than
15 amps.
• Route incoming power to the DL40 display by a separate path
from the communications cable.
• Where power and communication lines must cross, they should cross at right
angles. Communications lines can be installed in the same conduit as low
level DC I/O lines (less than 10 Volts).
• Grounding minimizes noise from Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and is
a safety measure in electrical installations. T o avoid EMI, shield and ground
cables appropriately.
• A source for grounding recommendations is the National Electrical Code
published by the National Fire Protection Association of Boston.
Enclosures
Mount the DL40 display in a panel or enclosure to protect the internal circuitry.
The display meets NEMA T ype 12/13, 4 (indoor use), and 4X (for stainless steel
faceplate versions) ratings only when properly mounted in a panel or enclosure
with the equivalent rating.
Dataliner DL40 Message Display4
Allow enough space within the enclosure for adequate ventilation. Consider heat
produced by other devices in the enclosure. The ambient temperature around the
display must be between 0 and 60C (32 and 140F).
Make provisions for accessing the back panel of the display for wiring,
maintenance, installing a memory module, and troubleshooting.
Required Tools
Other than the tools required to make the panel cutout, the tools required for
installation are:
• 3/8 inch deep well socket wrench
• small slotted screwdriver
• torque wrench (in. / lbs).
Dataliner DL40 Message Display5
Installing Display in Panel
To install the Dataliner display:
ATTENTION: Disconnect all electrical power from the panel before
!
making cutout.
Make sure the area around the panel cutout is clear.
Take precautions so that metal cuttings do not enter any components
that may already be installed in panel.
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury or damage
to the panel components.
Mounting the DL40
The following figures provide panel cutout dimensions and overall dimensions for
the DL40.
You can mount the DL40 in a custom panel or enclosure. Dataliner enclosures
Catalog Numbers 2706-NE1 (two-line display) and 2706-NE2 (four-line display) are
available When the DL40 is properly installed, the faceplate of the DL40 provides a
NEMA T ype 12/13, 4 (indoor), and 4X (for stainless steel faceplate versions)
enclosure integrity.
T o install the DL40, perform the following steps:
1. Cut and drill the appropriate mounting holes in the enclosure or panel.
2. Remove the six mounting nuts from the hardware kit included with the DL40.
3. Position the DL40 in the panel or enclosure mounting hole.
4. Install and tighten the six nuts on the mounting studs to a torque of 14 in•lbs
(1.6N•m) each.
ATTENTION: Mounting nuts must be tightened to a torque of 14
!
inch-pounds to provide a proper seal and to prevent potential damage to
the display. Allen-Bradley assumes no responsibility for water or
chemical damage to the display or other equipment within the enclosure
because of improper installation.

EMI Power-Line Filters (EU Installations Only)
DL40 displays intended for use in the European Union require a power-line filter.
One line filter is required for each installed display. Two filter models are available.
These filters are functionally identical, they differ only in termination style.
Line filters are available from an authorized Schaffner distributor.

When properly installed, power-line filters prevent interference currents in the
power lines. Interference currents can affect other devices on the same power
line and other nearby equipment. Connect the Dataliner message display to the
power-line filter as shown on the following page.

• Output leads from the power-line filter to the Dataliner must be 10 cm (4 in.) or
less.
• Both Dataliner and power-line filter must be connected to a low impedance earth
ground
• All parts of the grounding system must be connected together with low
impedance connections. Keep all ground connections as short as possible
• Power-line filter must be connected to earth ground before connecting the power
source.
• Do not run signal wiring and power wiring in the same conduit.
• When control or communication wires must cross, they should cross at an angle
as close to 90 degrees as possible.
• Follow Dataliner display shielded cable requirements as specified in the user
manual.
• Make sure cable shielding connections and terminations are connected as
specified in the appropriate Dataliner User Manual.
• Keep the filter line side leads well separated from the load side leads.
