8. Information about necessary pull-relievers for cables is indicated in the Physical Connection section of this manual.
Attention must be paid to this information so that cable breaks will not occur, e.g. during service work.
9. Do not paint the product. The surface treatment inuences the excess heat transfer. Painting, labels or other
surface treatments that differ from the factory default, might cause overheating.
10. Exposure to heavy vibration and acoustic noise might under certain circumstances affect functionality and expected
lifetime. This must be considered during system assembly and installation. Mounting position must be carefully
selected to avoid any exposure of amplied vibration.
Installation limitations
Due to environmental factors, please review the points noted below.
A: Overheat prevention:
For Maritime Multi Computer (MMC, Panel Computers) it is advised that you do not mount the unit in a
vertical angle lower than ±30 degrees, as noted in point 3 (previous section), i.e. at mounting of the unit.
This is to prevent both overheating the unit as well as ensure proper cooling airow to sustain long-life and
stable operation. Panel Computer units generate more heat than regular Display units naturally because of
CPU and mainboard chips.
C: Projected Capacitive Technology (PCTouch) MULTITOUCH and in general Touch Screen glass:
For all units with a factory mounted touch screen and for outdoor use especially ensure that raindrops do not
stay on the unit’s at glass surface, please do not mount the unit in a vertical angle lower than ±30 degrees,
i.e. at mounting of the unit. This is to prevent accidental touches that are similar to a human nger (cover area
for a x period of seconds) as well as make sure the raindrops are “moving” and runs down off the glass surface.
D: General rule for console mounted units:
To ensure proper cooling airow, long-life and stable operation for all units, please make sure that the
console casing has either fans or decent ventilation holes to prevent overheating inside the console due to
the combined temperature of both Display or Panel Computer units together with other electronic instruments.
A general rule is to make sure the console casing is capable of expelling “worst case scenario” in respect of
the “Max Power Consumption” of all devices installed. Please review also point 2, 5, 6 and 9 (previous
section) for additional information and installation tips.
