4 Hardware Installation

Become familiar with the device and carefully read the instruction manual prior to the
mounting, installation, and commissioning of the device.

The Statement of Conformity and Certificate of Compliance of the VisuNet XT-9700 must be
observed. It is especially important to pay attention to any special conditions for safe use that
are indicated.

Avoid electrostatic discharges while operating the installed device.

Connection or disconnection of energized non-intrinsically safe circuits is only permitted in the
absence of a hazardous atmosphere.

4.1 General Warnings

■ Input and output wiring methods and cable types must be in accordance with ordinary

location wiring methods and in accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.

■ Power must be removed from the unit before performing any service procedures.

■ Dangerous

power levels may be present in the computer or on power input terminals
while power is connected, even if the power has been turned off. The proper method for
removing power from the unit is to switch off power at the circuit breaker.

■ (DC version) Connect the power supply to an isolated secondary voltage that is

separated from the primary circuit by reinforced or double insulation. The power supply
shall be properly bonded to the main grounding terminal in the end product. Make sure
there is a proper connection between protective earth and negative somewhere in the DC
Power Net. The power supply shall be connected to a circuit that does not exceed 30 A.

■ (AC version) The power supply shall be connected to branch circuit that does not exceed

20 A.

■ Never expose LCD screen to direct sunlight. Always install with sun shield.

The touch screen, control buttons and function keys are intended for use with hands or gloved
hands. Do not use tools that have metal parts, such as screwdrivers, as these may damage the

touch screen and controls.

4.2 Mounting the VisuNet XT

4.2.1 Selecting a Mounting Location

■ The VisuNet XT-9700 Series is designed to operate in an outdoor environment.

■ The mounting method must be able to support the weight of the unit under shock and

vibration conditions for the given application.

■ To insure proper operation, do not install the unit in tight, confined areas where heat

buildup can cause the unit to overheat and shut down until temperatures fall back to
normal operating conditions.

4.2.2 Mounting Options

The VisuNet XT can be mounted three different ways.

■ Yoke Mount: An adapter for mounting on a yoke can be fastened to threaded holes on

the left and right sides of the unit. Refer to 4.2.2.1.

■ VESA Mount: Mounting points according to the VESA Mounting Interface Standard are

located on the rear of the unit. Refer to 4.2.2.2, Figure 4.11. Use M5 x 12 mm screws to
mount the VisuNet XT.

Caution!

DO NOT attempt to remove the LCD monitor from the computer housing. Removal of
the monitor by unauthorized persons may void all warranties. This procedure must
only be performed by a qualified Pepperl+Fuchs Service Technician.

VisuNet XT 9700 Series

VisuNet XT 9700 Series

Hardware Installation

■ Panel Mount: The VisuNet XT can be mounted in a panel opening using a Panel Mount

Kit. Refer to 4.2.2.3.

Each method requires its own accessory components to assist in mounting.

4.2.2.1 Yoke Mount Installation

Shield Assembly

1. Attach side plates (#547303 and #547302) to the shield (#547309) through the pivot hole lo­cation, aligning stop pin into the guide slot. Place two thrust bushings on each side

(4x

#

547642) on both sides of the shield flanges and insert the pivot bearing (2x #547640) throu­gh the shield and thrust bushings. Place one washer (2x #547646) and one locknut (2x
#547647) on each stud and tighten to 14in-lb. See Figure 4.1.

Figure 4.1 Shield Assembly

2. Using one retractable plunger (2x #547644) per side, inert jam nuts (2x #547650) onto the
plu

nger threads then install into threaded hole on shield side plates. Apply Included Loctit

e

243 (#547659) to the thr

eads of the plungers. Adjust the depth such that the thre

ad end of

eac

h plunger (the nose when the plunger is retracted) leaves a .03"-.05" gap from the shie

ld

side

s as shown. Tighten jam nuts to 30in-lb to secure in place. Refer to Figure 4.2

Using a 3/16" hex socket, tighten each to 36in-lb. NOTE: Orient the right side block to ensure
the pockets are aligned to the XT side cover screws to allow proper fit. See Figure 4.3.

2. Inserting from the back side, attach the shield brackets to each adapter block using four flat
head screws (8x #547648) per side. Apply Loctite 243 (#547659) to each of the screws and
tighten to 24in-lb using a #2 Phillips driver.

3. Insert shoulder bushing (2x #547643) and thrust bushing (2x #547642) onto each shoulder
screw hinge (2x #547651). Apply Loctite 243 (#547659) to the shoulder screw threads, then
insert hinge into adapter block and start 1-2 threads to temporarily hold the shoulder screw
before installation to the yoke frame.

4. If no sun shield is used, install adapter plates (2x #547308) similarly to the sun shield
installation. Rotate the plate to the position which matches the yoke orientation. Refer to

Figure 4.4.

Yoke Frame Assembly

1. Insert two larger jam nuts (2x #547656) on the two larger plungers (2x #547645). Apply Loc­tite 243 (#547659) to the threads of the plunger. Install into the threaded holes near the pivot
channel on the yoke frame (#547306). Set the nose end of the plunger when retracted to be
protruding no more than .05". once installed, retract the plungers into the open position. Re­fer to Figure 4.5.

2. Install the yoke by spacing the bearings as shown in the figure. Once placed within the
circular cutout, push in each sleeve bearing to lock the assembly in place. The plungers
can be locked in place to further aid installation.

3. Fasten the hinge shoulder screws using a 3/16" hex socket to 100in-lb. Refer to Figure 4.6.

Figure 4.6 Yoke frame attachment

4. Install yoke base (#547305) to desired location. Thread the three thumb screws (3x

547638) into the tube section of the yoke frame.

5. Insert the frame into yoke base and tighten thumb screws by hand in desired position. Refer
to Figure 4.7.

Yoke Keyboard Tray Assembly

1. Thread the plungers onto each threaded hole on the keyboard tray (547308). Insert a jam nut
(2x #547650) onto each plunger (2x 547644). Apply a small amount of Loctite 243
(#547659).

2. Place two of the smaller thrust bushings (2x 547641) onto each of the smaller shoulder
screws (2x #547657). Place one bushing (2x #547640) on each shoulder screw. Install
inwards on each side to the hinge hole on the keyboard tray.

3. Insert one thrust bushing (2x 547642) on each side. Next, place a spacer (2x 547655) on
each shoulder screw. See Figure 4.8.

Figure 4.8 Keyboard tray flange assembly

4. Place one keyboard flange (2x 547307) on each shoulder screw, aligning the stop pin to the
guide channel.

5. Apply Loctite 243 (#547659) to the threads of the shoulder screw.

6. With the keyboard tray in the lowest setting (against the bottom of the channel), fasten each
shoulder screw to the yoke frame. Tighten each shoulder screw using a 1/8" hex socket to
24in-lb.

7. Align the other mounting hole on each flange to the second hole on the yoke. Insert two pan
head screws (2x 547652) (one on each side), with a lock washer (2x 547653) on each
screw, into each of the remaining threaded holes. See Figure 4.9.

Figure 4.9 Keyboard tray clearance adjustment

8. Once secured, set the plunger depth to a retracted nose clearance gap of .03"-.05". Tighten
each jam nut to 30in-lb. See Figure 4.10.
