Installation • Connecting to the power mains 2.3 Grounding concept functional ground Functional ground is a current path of low impedance between electrical circuits and ground. It is used, for example, to improve immunity to disturbances and not necessarily as a protective measure. It therefore serves only to deflect disturbances, not to provide any kind of protection against electric shock.
Installation • Cable connections 3 Cable connections Flex radius specifications must be taken into account when installing or connecting cables.

Installation • Touch screen calibration 5 Touch screen calibration B&R touch screen devices are equipped with a B&R touch controller that supports hardware calibration. As a result, devices are pre-calibrated when delivered. This is an advantageous feature when replacing devices of the same model or type since it avoids having to recalibrate the new device.
Installation • Adjusting the display brightness 6 Adjusting the display brightness In SDL operation, the brightness of the display can be configured using the Control Center on the connected B&R Industrial PC. Controlling brightness in DVI operation is only possible using the two brightness controls provided on the SDL / DVI receiver.
