Environment and Enclosure
Information
Review the information on enclosures and environments before installing your
monitor.
ATTENTION: Environment and Enclosure
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial
environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC
publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6561 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment
according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions,
there may be potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility
in other environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. UL recognized and
hazardous location equipment must be mounted in an enclosure that is
suitably designed or rated for those specific environmental conditions that
will be present, and designed to prevent personal injury resulting from
accessibility to live parts. UL Listed equipment need not be mounted inside
another enclosure in ordinary (nonhazardous) locations if NEMA Type and
IEC ratings are not required, but the mounting method must limit the tilt of
the product to ± 60° from vertical. Examples include an articulated arm,
table-top stand, or other means having sufficient mechanical stability. The
mounting means must be firmly attached to the supporting surface using
screws, bolts, or clamps so the monitor cannot tip.

from Vertical
• The enclosure must have sufficient space around air inlets and outlets to
provide the circulation necessary for cooling. Never let air passages
become obstructed.
• The surrounding air temperature must not exceed the maximum operating
temperature, either inside or outside of the enclosure. Consider heat
produced by other devices in the enclosure. You may need a user-supplied
fan, heat exchanger, or air conditioner to meet this condition.
Hot air rises. The temperature at the top of the enclosure is often higher
than the temperature in other parts of the enclosure, especially if air is not
circulating.
The product can operate at a range of extremes. However, the life span of
any electronic device is shortened if you continuously operate the product
at its highest rated temperature.
• The humidity of the surrounding air must not exceed specified limits. In
very dry environments, static charges build up readily. Proper grounding of
the equipment through the AC power cord helps to reduce static
discharges, which may cause shocks and damage electronic components.
• The enclosure or cover must remain in place at all times during operation.
The cover provides protection against high voltages inside the product and
inhibits radio-frequency emissions that might interfere with other
equipment.
ATTENTION: Industrial computers and monitors are not safety devices.
Follow standard safety practice and redundancy in the application of
this product.
• When mounted, the product cannot be tilted more than 60° from vertical.

Chapter 2Installing the Monitor
Mounting Guidelines
Observe these guidelines when installing the monitor in a panel:
• Confirm that there is adequate space behind the panel.
– Allow a minimum of 51 mm (2.0 in.) around the back, sides, and
bottom, and 77 mm (3.0 in.) on the top for ventilation.
– A cabinet with a minimum depth of 112 mm (4.4 in.) is sufficient.
• Cut supporting panels to specifications before installation. Take
precautions so metal cuttings do not enter components already installed in
panel.
• Supporting panels must be at least 14 gauge to be sure of proper sealing
against water and dust and to provide proper support. The mounting
hardware supplied accommodates panels up to 6.00 mm (0.236 in.) thick.
• Take precautions so operating temperatures or other environmental
specifications of the monitor are followed both inside and outside of the
enclosure.
ATTENTION: Failure to follow these guidelines may result in personal
injury or damage to the panel components.
Mounting the Monitor in Panel
Follow these directions to mount the monitor in a panel.
1. Cut the panel opening by using the appropriate cutout dimensions.
2. Attach cables to the monitor before installing the monitor if rear access to
the monitor will be limited after installation. See page 33
attach cables.
3. Verify the sealing gasket is properly positioned on the monitor.
This gasket forms a compression-type seal. Do not use sealing compounds.
4. Place the monitor in the panel cutout.
5. Slide the mounting clips into the slots on the top, bottom, and sides of the
monitor; see Figure 3
6. Hand-tighten the mounting clips around the bezel by following the

Power Source Connection
The monitor connects to either a 100…240V AC or a 9V…36V DC power
source, but cannot be connected to AC and DC voltage simultaneously.
Connect AC Power
With the AC power adapter, the monitor can use a single-phase AC power
supply providing 100…240V AC at 47…63 Hz. Only use the AC adapter
supplied with the monitor.
Do not use the AC adapter and external DC at the same time.
Power must be available with a ground connection nearby. Whenever possible,
connect the monitor to the same AC source that supplies the computer.

3. Hard wire the AC power by using the provided AC power cord (3).
Verify that the power cord is firmly secured to the AC power adapter by
the metal cage already attached to the adapter (4).
4. Restore AC power.
Connect DC Power
The monitor connects to a 9…36V DC power source through a DC input
terminal block. The DC power option supports operation from either a safety
extra-low voltage (SELV) or protective extra-low voltage (PELV) power source.
The power supply is internally protected against reverse voltage polarity.
ATTENTION: Use a SELV isolated and ungrounded power supply as input
power to the monitor. This power source provides protection so, under
normal and single fault conditions, the voltage between the conductors
and functional earth/protective earth does not exceed a safe value.
Do not use the AC adapter and external DC at the same time.
Follow these steps to connect power to the monitor.
1. Turn off the main power switch or breaker.
2. Route the power wires from your DC power supply and connect the leads
to the DC input terminal block on the monitor.
The monitor does not require a ground connection to meet any regulatory
compliance when connecting DC power.

Setting the Monitor Type
This chapter describes how to do the following:
· Set the monitor type
· Check and change the display resolution
· Adjust monitor brightness
· Adjust the display
· Enable Auto Adjust
· Use the OSD to adjust the monitor
If you are using a Windows Plug and Play operating system, your computer will
automatically detect the monitor type during the start-up process.
If your video card does not support Plug and Play, or if you are using the
Windows NT operating system, you must set the monitor type manually. Some
older video cards must also be enabled to detect the monitor type.
If your video card does support Plug and Play, but it does not appear that
your monitor type has been set properly, set the monitor type manually. For
example, the screen image may be too large or small, or otherwise
distorted.
The monitors use a (digital) flat panel display. However, when they are
driven by the computer's analog VGA interface, they are connected as an
analog device. Some setup screens may indicate that the monitor is
operating as a CRT (analog) device, rather than a digital or flat-panel
device.

Chapter 3Display Configuration
TIP
IMPORTANT
Check and Change
the Display Resolution
Flat panel monitors are fixed-resolution devices. The image looks best when the
monitors are operated at their native resolution. However, the monitors have
advanced scaling capabilities to make the display look as good as possible while
running in nonnative modes.
Native resolutions differ depending on the monitor:
· 1200M: 800x600
· 1500M: 1024x768
· 1700M and 1900M: 1280x1024
Always operate the monitor at its native resolution.
If you switch the resolution of your monitor from its native resolution, the
display may look slightly distorted due to the replication techniques used to fill
the full screen with an image.
To check or change your monitor’s display resolution, access the Display settings
in the Control Panel on your computer.
Adjust the Monitor
Brightness
To adjust the brightness level of the monitor, use the buttons on the rear

Cleaning the Monitor
This chapter describes how to clean the monitors and perform other routine
maintenance.
Occasionally clean the display panel and cabinet with a soft cloth dampened (not
soaked) with a mild (nonabrasive) glass cleaner. Keep turning a fresh side of the
cloth toward the screen surface to avoid scratching it with accumulated grit.
Apply the solvent only to the cloth, and not directly on the monitor screen.
Do not use paper products as they may scratch the surface. To minimize the
risk of abrasion, allow the screen to stand dry.
ATTENTION: You can use alcoholic or ammonia cleaners to clean the
polycarbonate shield or a touch screen. However, use only one or the
other at all times. A residue mixture can cause a chemical reaction.
Be careful when cleaning a touch screen shield that is installed over the screen.
Abrasive and certain chemical cleaners can easily damage the surface.
