Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Installing the 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor 5 This section describes how to install the monitor.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor • Determine the minimum and maximum ambient humidity for the monitor by consulting the specification sheets at the back of this manual. Ensure that the humidity of the ambient air will not exceed these limits. In very dry environments, static charges build up very readily. Proper grounding of the equipment through the AC power cord can help reduce the likelihood of static discharges, which may cause shocks and damage electronic components.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 7 Panel Mounting Guidelines Observe the following precautions before installing the unit in a panel: • Confirm that there is adequate space behind the panel. Remember to allow extra space (0.5 in. or 12.7 mm behind and on each side) for air circulation. A cabinet with a minimum depth of 5.12 in. (130 mm) is sufficient. • Take precautions so that metal cuttings do not enter any components that are already installed in the panel.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Dimensions This section provides diagrams you need to follow to install the unit. Figure 2 Dimensions (Front View) Figure 3 Dimensions (Side View) Publication 6185-5.

Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Panel Mounting Procedure 1. Cut and drill the panel (refer to following figure). Units are in mm [inches]. Note: Use #10-32 or M5 self-locking nuts for mounting. Figure 5 Panel Mounting Cutout 2. If access to the side of the monitor is not available following installation, attach the power and video cables to the side of the monitor at this time. 3. Install the monitor in the prepared cutout. Refer to the figure on this page. 4.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 11 5. Tighten all mounting bolts evenly to a torque of 24 inch-pounds. ATTENTION: Mounting nuts must be tightened to a torque of 24 inch-pounds to provide panel seal and avoid potential damage. Rockwell Automation assumes no responsibility for water or chemical damage to the monitor or other equipment within the enclosure due to improper installation. Publication 6185-5.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Connecting the 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor The side panel of the 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor has connectors for attaching cables to accomplish the following: • Connecting to a host video source (HD-15 VGA connector) • Connecting to a host touchscreen control port (DB-9 connector) (optional) • Connecting to AC power (IEC connector) or DC power (terminal block) Note: Some connectors on your monitor may differ from the following figure.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 13 Connecting the Video Source The video connection to the host is made through a HD-15 (female) connector located on the side panel. Note: For more information on using an HD-15 video cable to connect to the host computer, refer to Appendix B (Page 30). To establish a signal using the HD-15 connector: 1. Obtain a shielded, properly terminated video cable of length as short as possible.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 3. Connect the other end to any communications port on the host computer. 4. Tighten the captive screws on the cable connector to secure it. Connecting AC Power The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor requires a single phase power supply providing 85 to 264V AC at 47 to 70 Hz. Power must be available at a grounded three-pin outlet located nearby. Whenever possible, connect the monitor to the same AC source that supplies the computer. To connect AC power to the monitor: 1.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 15 Connecting DC Power The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor requires a DC power supply providing 18 to 32V DC. To connect DC power to the monitor: 1. Turn off the main switch or breaker. 2. Use the ground terminal of the monitor (below the power connector) to establish a chassis-to-earth ground connection. Secure one end of a ground strap to the ground terminal. Connect the other end of the ground strap to a good earth ground. The ground terminal is an M5 screw.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Initial Video Setup The 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor is configured at the factory, but typically requires initial adjustments to ensure the best screen image. Rockwell Automation provides the Flat Panel Monitor Adjustment Utility with each flat panel monitor to assist you in adjusting the monitor settings. Important: Flat panel monitors are fixed resolution devices and work best when set at their native resolution.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 17 You may also need to adjust the brightness or contrast of the screen image based on the conditions of the location in which the monitor is installed. Adjusting Settings Use these instructions to adjust the video settings to achieve the best screen image. Note: For more information on the location and operation of the controls on the monitor, refer to Page 19. Step 1 - Start the Adjustment Utility 1.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Step 3 - Adjust the horizontal size Use the H+ and H- controls to adjust the horizontal size until the vertical shaded bars disappear and the screen image fits the display precisely. Note: The vertical size is fixed and requires no user adjustment. Step 4 - Adjust the horizontal and vertical position 1. Use the H LFT and H RT controls to adjust the horizontal screen position. 2. Use the V UP and V DN controls to adjust the vertical screen position.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Operating the 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor 19 This section describes how to operate the 6185-E Flat Panel Monitor. You can adjust the monitor attributes several different ways: • Using the optional luminance control on the front panel • Using the controls on the rear panel Power Indicator Two LED indicators are provided on the front panel to indicate various operating modes.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Table B Control Panel for Adjusting Monitor Settings Abbreviation Control Name Control Function CLK- Clock Left Moves the signal sampling points to the left. Eliminates display jitter and fuzziness. Change this setting after all other adjustments have been made. Adjust setting until vertical lines are crisp. CLK+ Clock Right Moves the signal sampling points to the right. Eliminates display jitter and fuzziness.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 21 Interpreting the LEDs on the Control Board The control board contains five LEDs that are visible through when you remove the access panel (four red LEDs and one green LED). If the monitor is functioning properly, the green LED (PWR) and one red LED (L1) should be lit. If more than one red LED is lit, then consult the following table to interpret the status LEDs. If you still cannot fix the problem, contact Technical Support for additional assistance.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Dimmer Control The 6185-E is equipped with proprietary display dimming circuitry that allows full range control of image luminance from the front panel. The LEDs are present with or without the dimmer control, but the two buttons that adjust the luminance of the display are optional. Figure 9 Dimmer Control The control buttons adjust the luminance of the image, which is not the same as the brightness setting.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor 23 To turn off the monitor without turning off the power: 1. Press and hold both buttons for 2 seconds, until the monitor’s backlight is turned OFF. 2. Press either button to turn the backlight back ON. Table D Interpreting the Dimmer LED Green LED Amber LED Condition On Off Normal Operation - The monitor is receiving a valid video signal. Off On Signal Not Received - The monitor is not receiving a valid video signal.
Industrial 20.1" Flat Panel Monitor Routine Maintenance Cleaning Occasionally clean the display panel and cabinet with a soft cloth dampened (not soaked) with a mild (non-abrasive) glass cleaner. Keep turning a fresh side of the cloth toward the screen surface to avoid scratching it with accumulated grit. Note: The solvent should be applied only to the cloth, and not directly on the monitor screen. Do not use paper products as they may scratch the surface.
