Environment and Enclosure Information
Review the information on enclosures and environments before installing the
product.
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 Listed
equipment need not be mounted inside another enclosure if
NEMA Type, UL, or IEC ratings are not required, but the mounting
method must limit the tilt of the product to +/- 30 degrees from
vertical. Examples include articulated arm, table-top stand, wall
mount or other means having sufficient mechanical stability and
which is secured to the mounting surface. Units that are not
rack-mount ship with a gasketed bezel to meet specified NEMA
Type, UL, and IEC ratings only when mounted in an enclosure
with equivalent ratings. Subsequent sections of this publication
may contain additional information regarding specific enclosure
type ratings required to comply with certain product safety
certifications.
See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529,
as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection
provided by different types of enclosure. Also, see the appropriate
sections in this publication, as well as Industrial Automation
Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Allen-Bradley publication
1770-4.1, for additional installation requirements pertaining to this
equipment.
European Union Directive Compliance
This product meets the European Union Directive requirements when installed
within the European Union or EEA regions and have the CE mark. A copy of the
Declaration of Conformity is available at the Rockwell Automation/Allen-Bradley
website: http://www.ab.com/certification

ATTENTION
This product is intended to operate in an industrial or control
room environment, which utilizes some form of power
isolation from the public low-voltage mains. Some computer
configurations may not comply with the EN 61000-3-2
Harmonic Emissions standard as specified by the EMC
Directive of the European Union. Obtain permission from the
local power authority before connecting any computer
configuration that draws more than 75 W of ac power directly
from the public mains.
Before You Begin
Before unpacking the product, inspect the shipping carton for damage. If damage is
visible, immediately contact the shipper and request assistance. Otherwise, proceed
with unpacking.
Keep the original packing material in case you need to return the product for repair
or transport it to another location. Use both the inner and outer packing cartons to
provide adequate protection for a unit returned for service.
Installation Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to make sure your product provides safe and reliable
service.
• The installation site must have sufficient power.
• The enclosure must have sufficient space around air inlets and outlets to
provide the circulation necessary for cooling. Never allow air passages to
become obstructed.
• The ambient air temperature must not exceed the maximum operating
temperature. 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.
TIP
IMPORTANT
Publication 6176M-IN002A-EN-P - August 2006
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 ambient air must not exceed specified limits and must
avoid condensation.
• In dry environments, static charges build up easily. 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.
• For VESA mounting, the installation must provide sufficient mechanical
stability to minimize the effects from vibration and shock. The mounting
means must be firmly attached to the supporting surface using the
appropriate hardware.
• Review the panel and rack-mounting types and product dimensions before
installation. Refer to the VersaView Light Industrial Monitors Installation
Instructions, publication 6176M-IN001.
• For panel mounting, cut supporting panels to specifications before
installation. Take precautions so metal cuttings do not enter components
already installed in the panel. Supporting panels must be at least 14 gauge to
be sure of proper sealing against water and dust and to provide proper
support.
• For rack mounting, the 1950M monitor installs directly into a standard 48 cm
(19 in.) rack. Adapters are required to install the 1550M and 1750M monitors
in a rack. For details on mounting the monitors in a rack, refer to the
installation instructions that ship with each rack adapter. The height and
depth of the cabinet must accomodate the panel height and depth of the
monitor. Allow minimum clearances for cables and airflow.
Pre-installation Procedure
Perform this pre-installation procedure before installing the mounting clips.
1. Turn off the monitor and all peripherals connected to it, if necessary.
2. For panel mounting:
a. Prepare a panel cutout and cut the panel opening using appropriate
cutout dimensions.
b. Verify that the sealing gasket is properly positioned on the monitor.
c. Place the monitor on the panel cutout.
For rack mounting:
a. Prepare a rack adapter if installing a 1550M and 1750M monitors.
b. Position the monitor in the rack adapter or rack.

6 Mounting Clips
Install the Mounting Clips
Mounting clips are required to install the monitors directly into a panel or rack.
These are the number of mounting clips required for installation.
• For 1550M and 1750M monitors: 10 mounting clips
• For the 1950M monitor: 12 mounting clips
To install the mounting clips:
1. Slide the mounting clips into the slots on the top, bottom, and sides of the
monitor.
