Dataliner DL10 Message Display

3

Apparatus covered by this standard is not intended for connection to a public
mains network but is intended to be connected to a power network supplied
from a high- or medium-voltage transformer dedicated for the supply of an
installation feeding a manufacturing or similar plant.

This product is intended for use solely in an industrial environment as defined
above. When installed in Europe, any other application is in contravention of
European Union Directives, and a breach of these laws.

Wiring and Safety Guidelines

Install the Dataliner DL10 display using publication 70E, Electrical Safety
Requirements for Employee Workplaces. In addition to the NFPA general
guidelines, follow these recommendations:

Connect the Dataliner display to its own branch circuit. The input power
source should be protected by a fuse or circuit breaker rated at no more than
15 amps.

Route incoming power to the DL10 display by a separate path
from the communications cable.

Where power and communication lines must cross, they should cross at right
angles. Communications lines can be installed in the same conduit as low
level DC I/O lines (less than 10 Volts).

Grounding minimizes noise from Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and is
a safety measure in electrical installations. To avoid EMI, shield and ground
cables appropriately.

A source for grounding recommendations is the National Electrical Code
published by the National Fire Protection Association of Boston.

Enclosures

Mount the DL10 display in a panel or enclosure to protect the internal circuitry.
The display meets NEMA Type 12/13, 4 (indoor use), and 4X (for stainless steel
faceplate versions) ratings only when properly mounted in a panel or enclosure
with the equivalent rating.
