Industrial 18.1" Flat Panel Monitor

Publication 6185-UM001B-EN-P

Connecting the Video Source to the
RAC6185 18.1" Flat Panel Monitor

The video connection to the host is made on the side panel of the
RAC6185 18.1" Flat Panel Monitor using either a HD-15 (female)
connector a 5-BNC to HD-15 adapter cable. See the figures on Pages 57
and 58.

Note:

It may be possible to connect the monitor to video
generators that do not conform to VGA standards. The
main requirement is that the generator provides analog
RGB video signals (0.714V above reference black into 75
ohms) and separate horizontal and vertical sync signals.
Please contact your Allen-Bradley representative for more
information.

To establish a signal using the HD-15 connector:
1. Obtain a shielded, properly terminated video cable of length as short

as possible. Longer cables (up to approximately 50 feet in some
cases) may be used, provided they are properly constructed. Your
package may include a six-foot video cable, if specified.

2. Connect one end of the cable to the female HD-15 video input

connector on the side panel of the monitor.

3. Connect the other end to the output of any IBM-compatible VGA

adapter or other video generator.

To establish a signal using an adapter cable:
1. Attach the HD-15 to 5-BNC adapter cable to the monitor at the

HD-15 connector.
