The trackball control unit can be installed on a desktop or flush mounting (option). For
desktop mounting, the unit can be tilted or laid flat.
Mounting Consideration
Select a mounting location, keeping in mind the following points:
• Select a location where the control unit can be operated easily.
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
• Locate the unit away from places subject to water splash and rain.
• Referring to the outline drawings at the back of this manual, allow sufficient space
for maintenance and service.
• Select a mounting location considering the length of the cables to be connected to
the unit.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the unit is placed too close to the magnetic
compass. Observe the compass safe distances at the front of this manual to prevent
interference to a magnetic compass.
• Select a location where shock and vibration are minimal.
