Important U s er Information
Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of
electromechani cal equipment. "Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation, and
Maintenance of Solid State Controls" (Publication SGI-1.1) describes some important
differences bet ween solid st ate equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.
Because of this difference, and because of the wide variety of uses for solid state
equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves
that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will Rockwell Automation be responsible or liable for indirect or
consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.
The examples and di agrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes.
Because of the many variables and requirements associ ated with any particular
installation, Rockwell Automation cannot assume responsibility or liability for actual
use based on the examples and diagrams.

Installing the 6 18 5- A Flat Panel Monitor
This section describes how to install the monitor.
Tools Needed
In addition to the tools r equired to make the cutout, you will need the
following tools:
3/8” Deep Well Socket
•
1/4 ” Drive Extension - 6” or lo ng er
•
1/4” Drive Ratchet or 1/4” Drive Torque Ratchet
•
Before Installation
When installing the unit, it is important to consider environmental
factors at the site that could affect performance as well as possible
effects from equipment operation on per sonnel and nearby equipment.
Following the guidelines will help ensure that the monitor will provide
safe and r eliable service.
Ensure that sufficient power is available from a single phas e AC
•
outlet at the site.
Ensure that sufficient space is available around a ir inlets and outlets
•
to provide the circulation necessary for cooling. Never allow air
passages to become obstructed.
Ensure tha t the ambient air temperature will not exceed the
•
specified maximum temperature. A user supplied fan, heat exchanger
or air conditioner may be required to meet this condition in some
installations.
Leave the m onitor’s enclosure or cover in place at all times during
•
oper ation. The c over affords prote c tion agai nst hig h voltages inside
the monitor and inhibits radio-frequency emissions that might
interfere with other equipment.
The Federal Communications C ommission has prepa red a pamphlet
•
that addr esses the pr ob lem of radio frequency interference to radio
and televisio n receptio n, which should b e consu lted i n c ase of
problems with such interference. This publication, “How to Identify
and Resolve R a dio/TV Interference Problems” (Stock #004-00000345-4) may be obtained from the US. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402.

6 Industrial 10.4" Flat Panel Monitor
Determine the mini mum and maximum ambient humidity for the
•
monitor by consulting the specification sheets at the ba ck of this
manual. Ensure that the humidity of the ambient air will not exceed
these limit s. In very dry environments, static charges build up ver y
rea dily. Proper groundi ng of t he equ ipment through th e AC pow er
cord can help reduce the likelihood of static discharges, which may
cau se shoc ks and damage e lectronic c omponents.
Panel Mounting
When properly installed, the 6185-A Flat Panel Monitor is designed to
provide p rotection agai nst water a nd dust to NEM A 4 and NEMA 12
standards.
No slides or shelves are required because the 6185-A Flat Panel Monitor
is designed to be supported by the panels in which it is installed.

Panel Mounting Guidelines
Observe the following precautions befor e installing the unit in a panel:
Confirm that there is ad eq uate spac e behind the p anel. Rememb er to
•
allow extra space (0.5 in. or 12.7 mm) for air circulation. A cabinet
with a minimum depth of 3.3 in. (84 mm) is sufficient.
Take precautio ns so tha t meta l c utti ngs do not enter any c ompone nts
•
that are alrea dy installed in the panel.
Supporting panels should be at least 14 gauge to ensure proper
•
sealing against water and dust and to provide proper support. The
mounting hardware supplied accommodates panels up to 0. 25 in.
(6.35 mm) thick.
Note:
Supporting panels must be cut and drilled to
specifications prior to installation.
ATTENTION: Failure to follow these warnings may
result in personal injury or damage to the panel
components.
