The display for the HI6800 Series Application Controller can be mounted in a remote
location. The display cable can be modified to support the desired length of cable (extra
cable length is not supplied).
Figure 3-10. View of the Remote Display Mount Assembly
If you need to install the display further away from the controller than is possible with the
supplied cable, make a display cable between the panel and the instrument using the
following wiring specifications:
•
Wire size: 20 AVG maximum / 26 AWG minimum
•
Maximum cable length: 100 ft. (30.48 meters)
•
Use three twisted pairs with drain wires:
– Pair wires: +12 and GND, D1 and D2, D3, and D4
The terminal type is a spring cage type contact. There is a slot provided to use an
insert/release tool. The tool is a 2.0 mm x 0.4 mm wide flat blade screwdriver. Inserting the
tool opens the cage contact and allows one or two bare wires to be inserted. Removing the
insertion tool with bare conductor inserted will lock the connection.
