Customer Installation
5) Make sure that the Power-On/Off switch is set to O (Off) on both the Logic element
and the Display element.
There are two AC power cables. Follow the instruction in Step 6 to install one power
cable and follow the instructions in Step 7 to install the other power cable.
6) Attach one end of the monitor AC power cable to the AC power cable connector
on the back of the Display element (see the booklet that came with the Display
element for the location of the AC power connector) and the other end to the AC
power connector on the back of the Logic element (Figure 2-1).
7) Plug one end of the power cord into the AC connector on the back of the Logic
element (Figure 2-1). Plug the other end of the AC power cord into a wall
receptacle.
Installing the Optional Light Pen
Follow these steps to install the optional light pen:
1) Remove the light pen and its holder from the protective wrap.
2) Insert the light pen’s cable connector into the 4-pin receptacle on the rear of the
Logic element. Check to ensure that the connector is firmly seated. Figure 2-1 on
Page 2-3 shows the location of the light pen connector on the back of the Logic
element.
3) Peel the protective cover from the light pen holder’s mounting surface.
4) Mount the light pen holder on the side of the display station.
5) Measure the amount of cord needed for the light pen to reach from the holder to any
point on the screen. Leaving this amount free, place the light pen cord into the cord
retainers.
Note: The light pen is not supported in Split Screen mode.
Connecting the Display Station to the Host Systems
Connect the display station to the host or to a controller with a coax cable up to 1500
meters (4920 feet) long, or a twisted-pair cable with a minimum length of 30.5 meters
(100 feet) and a maximum length of 277 meters (900 feet). Coax cable and twisted-pair
cables can be combined. The following formula shows lengths:
(coax length) + (5 x twisted-pair length)
< 1370 meters (4500 feet)
Follow these steps to connect the 1483 to the host system or to a controller:
1) Locate the coax or twisted-pair cable extending from the controller.
