Dataliner DL40 Plus Message Display
(Catalog No. 2706-LV2xX, -LV4xX)
Overview
Wiring and Safety Guidelines
This document describes how to install a Dataliner DL40 Plus display
(standard or slave version) and contains these topics:
• Wiring and safety guidelines
• Mounting and dimensions
• Power connections
• DIP switch settings
• Specifications
For additional information, refer to:
• DL40 Plus Message Display User M anual (Publication 2706-6.1)
• DL40 Plus Slave Display User Manual (Publication 2706-6.3)
Install the D L40 Plus display conforming to NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety
Requirements for Employee Workplaces. In addition to the NFPA general
guidelines, refer to the following:
Careful cable routing helps minimize electrical noise. Route incoming
power to the module by a separate path from the communication cables.
Do not run communications wiring and power wiring in the same
conduit!
Where communication and wire paths must cross, make their intersection
perpendicular.
Grounding helps limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). To avoid problems caused by EMI, properly ground all
equipment and use shielded cables.
Important: Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance
with Class I, Division 2 wiring methods [Article 501-4(b) of the National
Electrical Code, NFPA70] and in accordance with the loc al authority ha ving
jurisdiction.

Mounting the DL40 Plus
The following pages provide panel cutout dimensions and overall
dimensions for the DL40 Plus displays.
You can also mount the DL40 Plus in a custom panel or enclosure. When a
DL40 Plus is properly installed, the faceplate provides a NEMA Type 12,
13, and 4X(indoor) rating. To install the DL40 Plus:
1. Cut and drill the appropriate mounting holes in the enclosure or panel.
2. Remove the six mounting nuts from the hardwar e bag provided with the
display.
3. Position the DL40 Plus in the panel or enclosure mounting hole.
4. Install and alternately tighten the nuts to a torque of 10in
(1.13N
•m).
