Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the unit is mounted in a panel cutout that allows for adequate ventilation and access to the rear communication ports.
• Verify that the power supply is within the 18-32 VDC range and properly fused before connection.
• Use shielded cables (e.g., 1770-CD or 1761-CBL-ASO3) for DH+ and DH-485 communication to minimize EMI interference.
• Power down the system before inserting or removing memory cards or performing maintenance on the backlight assembly.
• Maintain proper grounding practices to protect the terminal from electrical surges and noise.
