9.2 Installation
Mounting considerations
The remote display can be installed on a desktop, on the underside of a table, or flush
mounted in a panel. When you select a mounting location, remember the following
points:
• The nominal viewing distance for the display unit is 0.6 m. Select a suitable mount-
ing location considering that distance.
• Locate the remote display away from exhaust pipes and vents.
• Select an installation location that is well ventilated.
• Locate the remote display where shock and vibration are minimal.
• Locate the remote display away from equipment which generates the electromag-
netic fields like a motor or generator.
• Allow enough maintenance space at the sides and rear of the remote display and
leave enough slack in cables to facilitate maintenance and servicing.
• Observe the compass safe distances (see page ii) to prevent the interference to a
magnetic compass.
Flush mounting
See the outline drawing in the back of this manual.
1. Make a cutout in the mounting location using the template.
2. Make four pilot holes for self-tapping screws (3x20) in the mounting location.
3. Remove the hanger assembly from the remote display. Discard the hanger as-
sembly.
4. Remove the front panel from the remote display by unfastening the catches at the
rear of the panel by hands, in the order shown in the figure below.
