1. MOUNTING
1.1 Display Unit
The display unit (main or sub) can be installed on a desktop, overhead, on the bulk-
head or flush mounted in a console or panel.
1.1.1 Installation considerations
When selecting a mounting location for the display unit, keep the following in mind:
Keep the unit out of direct sunlight.
The temperature and humidity of the mounting location should be moderate and
stable.
Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
The mounting location should be well ventilated.
Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field-generating equipment such as mo-
tors and generators.
For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space at the sides and
rear of the unit and leave slack in cables. Refer to the outline drawings at the back
of this manual.
A magnetic compass will be affected if the display unit is too close to it. Observe the
compass safe distances to prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass. Refer to
the compass safety distances of the units on "SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" page.
For flush mounting in a panel, the mounting surface must be flat. Do not install the
unit on an uneven surface.
To avoid damage to the cabling when mounting the display unit, make sure the ca-
bling is not excessively bent.
Note: The cabling to the display unit should be completed before mounting the unit.
See section 2.3.2.
NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealantor contact
spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that can damage
coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors.
