5 INSTALLATION METHOD
When you buy a TP, there will be 4 iron install racks with it. There are two square fix holes on the display’s
upsi and downside. Use the mounting bracket to fasten the display tightly in the control tank’s install
de
holes.
For uch screen’s temperature will go high if it works too long, be Sure to install the touch screen at least
10cm away from adjacent structures and other equipments (each side 5cm) to keep cross-ventilation.
To
Installation Procedures
Step1 Refer to hereinbefore graph’s size. Open an square hole on the control tank’s panel.
Step2 Add airproof circles in the airproof trough while installing.
Step3 Insert the TP into the cut out of the control tank.
Step4 Set the mounting bracket into the display’s side fixing hole and tight the screw.
Step5 Connect the display and PLC communication ports with cables.
Note The communication cable can be offered by the supplier or made by user according to the
connecting graphics，give +24V DC power to start working.
