This section describes how to setting up 6188.
When installing the Operator Display Station, it is important to consider 
environmental factors that could affect performance as well as possible 
effects from equipment operation on personnel and nearby equipment. 
The figure on the left displays the general process to install, connect, and 
adjust your monitor. 
Installation Guidelines
Following these guidelines will help ensure that the monitor provides 
safe and reliable service. 
•
Ensure that sufficient power is available from a single phase AC 
outlet at the site. 
•
Ensure that sufficient space is available for air circulation necessary 
for cooling. 
•
Ensure that the ambient air temperature will not exceed the 
specified maximum temperature. 
Important: This Operator Display Station is designed to operate at a
range of extremes, however it is not good design practice to 
continuously operate it at the highest end of the specified 
temperature range. 
While the product will operate at its highest specified 
temperature, the overall life span of any electronic device is 
shortened when it operates at its highest rated temperature. 
 
•
Leave the Operator Display Station’s rear door closed at all times 
during operation. The sealed enclosure affords protection against 
dust, dirt, and liquids in the environment. 
•
The Federal Communications Commission has prepared a pamphlet 
that addresses the problem of radio frequency interference to radio 
and television reception, which should be consulted in case of 
problems with such interference. This publication, “How to Identify 
and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems” (Stock #004-000-
00345-4) may be obtained from the US Government Printing Office, 
Washington, DC 20402.
