Installing the 6185-E 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.

Publication 6185-5.2
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 13
Connecting the Video Source
The video connection to the host is made through a HD-15 (female)
connector located on the side panel.
Note:
For more information on using an HD-15 video ca ble to
connect to the host computer, refer to Appendix B
(Page 30).
To establish a signal using the HD-15 connector:
1. Obtain a shielded, properly terminated video cable of length as shor t
as possible. Longer cables (up to approximat ely 50 feet in some
cases) may be used, provided they are properly constructed. Your
package may include a six-foot video cable, if specified.
2. Connect one end of the cable to the female HD-15 video input
connector on the side panel of the monitor.
3. Conn e c t the other en d to th e ou tput of any IBM-co mp atible VGA
ada pter or other vide o generator.
Note:
You may connect the monitor to video genera tors that
do not conform to VGA standards. The main
requirement is that the gener a tor provide analog RGB
video signals (0.714V above reference black into 75
ohms) and separate horizontal and vertical sync signals.
Connecting the Touchscreen Interface
The serial touc hscreen interfa ce connection to th e host is made through
an RS-232 DB-9 (female) connector located on the side panel.
The optional touchscreen provides a high-resolution touc h input system.
Driver software included with the package allows the touchscreen to
function with many popular DOS and Windows
applications as a pointing device (mouse).

3. Conn e c t the other en d to any commu nicat ions p ort on t he host
computer.
4. Tighten the captive screws on the cable connector to secure it.
Connecting AC Power
The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor requires a single pha se power supply
providing 85 to 264V AC at 47 to 70 Hz. Power must be available at a
grounded three-pi n outlet locate d nearby. Wh en e ver p ossib le, co nnect
the monitor to the same AC source that supplies the computer.
To connect AC power to the monitor:
1. Turn off the mai n switch or breaker.
2. Use the ground terminal of the monitor (below the power connector)
to est ablish a cha ssis- to-earth ground conn e c tion. Secure one e nd of
a ground strap to the ground terminal. Conn ect the other end of the
ground strap to a good earth ground.
The ground terminal is an M5 screw.
A TTENTION: Chassis ground must be connected for
safe operation of the monitor. The AC receptacle on the
monitor is a 3-wire type with chassis ground pin, and the
mating AC cord supplied is a 3-wire type, designed for
connection to a grounded 3-pin AC outlet. However, a
properly ground AC ou tlet is not always avai lable, and
grounding using a 3-wire cord can easily be defeated. If
you fail to ground the monitor proper ly, the setup may
resu lt in p ersona l injury from e lectric al shock or damage
to the equipment.
3. Connec t the socket end of the AC power cord to the mat ing
connector on the rear pa nel of the monitor. Position the power cord
retaining clip attached to the rear panel c onnector over the cord’s
socket to secure it in place.
4. Connect the plug end of the AC power cord to the main outlet.

Publication 6185-5.2
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 15
Connecting DC Power
The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor requires a DC power supply providing
18 to 32V DC.
To connect DC power to the monitor:
1. Turn off the mai n switch or breaker.
2. Use the ground terminal of the monitor (below the power connector)
to est ablish a cha ssis- to-earth ground conn e c tion. Secure one e nd of
a ground strap to the ground terminal. Conn ect the other end of the
ground strap to a good earth ground.
The ground terminal is an M5 screw.
A TTENTION: Chassis ground must be connected for
saf e opera tion of the monitor. T he D C scr ew term inals on
the monitor have a chassis ground pin. However, some
DC s ources may not provide a proper ground path. If you
fail t o ground the monitor prop erly, the s etup ma y result
in personal injury from electrical shock or damage to the
equipment.
3. Connect the +VDC wire to the “+V” screw terminal. Connect the VDC wire to the “-V” screw terminal. Connect the power source
ground wire to the GND screw terminal. Tighten down the screw
terminals.
4. Restore DC power.

Initial Video Setup
The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor is configured at the fa ctory, but typically
requires i nitial a djustme n ts to ens ure the best s c reen image. Rockwell
Automation prov ides th e F lat P anel Monitor Adjustment Ut ility with
each flat panel monitor to assist you in adjusting the monitor settings.
Important:
Fla t panel monitors ar e f ixed r esolution devic es and work
best when set at their native r esolution. If you switch the
resolution of this monitor from 1280 x 1024 resolution, the
disp lay ma y look d istorted.
Common Flat Panel Video Adjustments
The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor provides controls to adjust the f ollowing
aspects of the monitor video display:
Horizontal and vertical position
•
Horizontal size of the display
•
Clock phase
•
Brig htness and contrast
•
It is important that you make initial adjustments to these settings to
ensure that the screen image on the flat panel monitor is set up correctly.
If th e h orizo ntal or vertical p ositi on of th e d isplay is not adjusted
correctly, one edge of the screen image extends beyond the side of the
monitor screen.
The horizontal size and clock phase adjustments are especially important
for flat panel monitors. If the horizontal size setting is not properly
adjusted, t h e scr een ima g e co ntains vertica l sha d ed ba rs. If the clock
phase setting is not properly adjusted, the screen image is “jittery.”
Figure 7

Description
Setting Up the Touchscreen Interface
All touch controllers are configured by default to provide serial
communications at 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.
For Allen- Bra dley monitors equipped with touchscreens, a serial
communications cable is requ ir ed. A suit able cable can be obta i n ed fr o m
Rockwell Automation or you can create one.
The cable provides a communications channel between the touchscreen
controller, which is mounted inside the monitor, and an RS-232-C serial
port on the host computer. Because the touch controller obtains power
from the monitor's power supply, no external touch power connections
are necessary.
Software supplied with the t ouchscreen must be loa ded on the host
computer to ha ndle communications with the touch controller over the
channel.
Because t he touchscreen emu l ates a mouse, there may be c ompa tibili ty
issues involving how the touchscreen emulates mouse buttons, especially
multiple buttons. For a complete discussion of these issues and how to
troubleshoot them, refer to the touc hscreen documentation.
This section describes how to set up the touchscreen system using the
6185-E Flat Panel Monitor. Setup involves the following:
• Enabling the touchscreen interface
• Installing the s oftware on the host computer that will handle
communications with the touchscreen contr oller
• Performing a calibrati o n
Enabl ing th e To uchscreen Interf a c e
The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor provides a fema le DB-9 connector on the
side panel. This connector provides the s erial interface for the touch
controller.

Installing the Touchscreen Driver Software
To install the touchscreen driver software correctly, obtain the following
information a bout the host hardware:
The COM por t in use for the touchscreen. Ensure that the RS-232
•
cable is properly installed between the monitor port and the host’s
COM port.
The baud rate at wh ich the controller is oper ating. Yo u will need to
•
match the ba ud rate at the COM port. The controller baud rate is
factory set a t 9600.
Note:
Once you have obtained this information, install the software using the
installation disks found in the touchscreen a ccessory package.
If you are using older touchscreen software, you may be
prompted for the type of touchscreen controller being used.
The 6185-E uses the following controllers:
Resistive: Elo TouchSystems model E271-2210.
•
Ca paciti ve: MicroTouch model SMT-3.
