2.1. General Safety Notes
WARNING
Risk of accidents; serious and potentially fatal injury possible. It
is essential to read and follow the instructions in this safety
chapter.
1. Read and observe these safety instructions before commissioning
and using the DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution. This protects
you and other persons and prevents damage to the equipment and to
technical equipment in the surrounding environment.
DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution is a support tool only; the obligation to exercise diligence
when driving remains fully and at all times with the driver.
DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution:
Does not replace the requirement of the driver to exercise diligence.
Does not replace the requirement of the driver to observe road traffic regulations, accident
prevention regulations and company safety guidelines.
Driver instruction is required
Users of DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution must be instructed by skilled personnel.
2.1.1. Test the System Prior to Live Use
For DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution to function, the system must be configured and tested
for each VMT and the usage environment in question.
1. Configure the system using the “ADLoG Screen Blanking Config Tool” for each VMT.
2. Then test the screen blanking on each VMT in the actual usage environment.
3. Re-configure the system as necessary and re-test.
2.1.2. Safety during Ongoing Work Operations
In the event of malfunctions of the DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution, the driver is not
permitted to be distracted by the screen display.

Safety Chapter

2.2. Safety Notes for the Sensor Stick Version
2.2.1. Observe when Getting Started
Implement the following measures to ensure that the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick is securely
plugged into the USB port at all times.
Suitable USB ports for the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick
For DLT-SA6100 to function safely and reliably, the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick must be
connected to a USB port fulfilling a minimum of the following technical requirements:
USB 2.0 port type A
Vibration-proof (tested for resistance to vibration)
High-retention
2.2.2. Do not Use Any Intermediate or Extension Cables
Plug the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick into a USB port without any intermediate or extension cables.
If intermediate or extension cables are used, the DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution
functionality is no longer guaranteed.
2.2.3. Protect the Sensor Stick against Unauthorized Removal
Use a USB port that is hard to access during work. This means that the DLT-SA6100 Sensor
Stick is optimally protected against accidental unplugging.
2.2.4. Notes for ADLoG VMTs
1. Connect the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick to a USB port underneath the cable cover of the
ADLoG VMT.
2. Do not use the service USB port underneath the antenna as the stick can be easily
removed here. In addition, the antenna can no longer be closed due to the stick, meaning
the IP protection rating of the VMT is no longer guaranteed.
For more details, see manual section 3.3.1 DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution on ADLoG
VMTs.

Safety Chapter
DLT-SA6100 Manual V1.10
15 / 43
To access the USB ports underneath the cable cover, this cable cover on the VMT must be
opened and closed correctly.
Please observe:
1. Work on the ADLoG VMT is only permitted to be performed by adequately qualified,
skilled personnel
2. Follow the instructions in the relevant ADLoG VMT manual.
2.2.5. Safety during Ongoing Work Operations
In the event of malfunctions of the DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution, the driver is not
permitted to be distracted by the screen display.
1. Never unplug the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick during travel.
2. Do not delete, modify or close the associated software application, otherwise the screen
blanking will no longer be functional.
Reason for this requirement: If the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick becomes loose in the USB port, the
sensors integrated into the stick will no longer detect whether or not the vehicle is stationary or
moving. Blanking is no longer guaranteed, and the driver may be distracted from driving.
Most ADLoG VMTs are equipped with suitable USB ports which are located underneath the cable
cover on the devices. For more details, see manual section 3.3.1 DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking
Solution on ADLoG VMTs.
2.2.6. Regular Maintenance Work
VMTs are subjected to high loads due to vibration and shocks. The DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick is
designed especially for this usage.
However, the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick may loosen in some circumstances, meaning
functionality may be restricted.
1. Carry out checks on a regular basis (depending on the load and environmental
conditions, e.g. weekly, monthly, etc.) to ensure that the DLT-SA6100 Sensor Stick is
securely fixed in the USB port.

3.1. Intended Use
DLT-SA6100 Screen Blanking Solution is used to overlay the display of VMTs with a black or a
customer-defined static image as soon as the vehicle is in motion. The driver is not distracted,
and the running application can no longer be used. Once the vehicle is stationary again, the
display is reactivated automatically.
3.2. Functional Description
3.2.1. On-Board Solution
With the DLT-SA6100 On-Board solution, the VMT has an extension board with an integrated
sensor that registers the vehicle movement or vehicle standstill.
In addition to the extension board, the "ADLoG Screen Blanking Software" is required.
NOTE The DLT-SA6100 On-Board solution is currently only available for the DLT-V72
facelift terminals (date: Jan 2020). The extension board can only be installed in
the VMT by the manufacturer.
3.2.2. Sensor Stick Solution
With the Sensor Stick solution, the sensor that registers vehicle movement or vehicle standstill is
integrated on a USB stick. This USB stick must be connected to a suitable USB interface on the
VMT.
In addition to the USB stick, the "ADLoG Screen Blanking Software" is required.
This solution is currently available for all VMTs described in manual section 3.3 Area of
Application.
