If the display is functioning properly, turn off your system, disconnect power plugs, and
disconnect all cables from the display. You are ready to disassemble the display and
install the sensor.
Optional Power Supply for a Serial Controller
If you are using a serial controller, you may need some additional equipment depending
on power and port requirements. Serial controllers include the EX112 and EX122
controllers.
When installing a serial controller, you must supply power to the controller. You can use
internal power (using the NOVRAM cable orange/grey/green power wires tap power
from inside the display) or use external power. If you decide to use external power, you
will need a power supply. If you are using a standard RS-232 serial cable (P/N 7310101),
or a cased EX controller, consult your applications engineer for power supply
specifications. For countries that use a 230/240-volt main system, it may be necessary to
purchase a power supply locally.
Details on the power requirements of the EX series controllers can be found in the
EX
Serial Controller Reference Guide
