2 Installing the Processor
The Landmark Graphic processor is designed to be mounted in an instrument
panel.
The overall installation dimensions of the processor are given in Fig. 2.
2.1 Installing the Processor in a Panel
Notes
The Landmark Graphic processor can be set up to display text in either
English, German, Italian, French, Spanish or Japanese. The processor
is supplied set up to display in English. Changing the language setting
involves removal of the back panel, therefore it is recommended that
the language is selected before installing the processor in a panel. If
you wish to change the language setting, refer to Section 5.0.
Mounting the processor in a panel is best achieved by two people, one
on the viewing side and one at the rear of the mounting panel.
1) RefertoFig.2.Chooseanareaofyourmountingpanelofsufcientsize
to contain the processor.
2) Carefully cut a rectangular area out of the panel 186mm/7.3in wide, by
138mm/5.4in high.
3) Refer to Fig. 3 (overleaf). Unscrew the four retaining screws on the rear
of the processor and slide out the two clamp bars.
4) From the viewing side, insert the processor in the mounting panel.
5) From the rear, re-insert the clamp bars into their channels and push
them up to touch the mounting panel.
6) Insertandtightentheretainingscrewsuntilthemountingpanelisrmly
gripped between the processor front panel and the clamp bar.
Caution
Do not overtighten the screws as this will deform the clamp bar.

Each alarm is designed to be ‘fail-safe’. i.e. if there is a loss of power
to the processor, the alarms will remain in an activated state until the
power supply is restored.
2.2.2 CMD (Command) input connection schedule
The CMD (Command) input connection schedule is given in Fig. 6.
The command signal is inactive when the voltage is >3.0V or open circuit (i.e. Track).
The command signal is active when the voltage is <1.5V or short circuit (i.e. Hold).

2.3 Cable Connector Assembly
The cable connectors for the rear panel of the processor are included in the
processor package. Each cable connector must be correctly wired with the
appropriate cable before the processor is used (Refer to Section 2.2 for the
cable schedules). A ‘write on’ label is included in the connector for your use.
To wire up the connector.
1) Make a note of the connector’s orientation in the rear panel of the proc-
essor.
2) Unclip the two halves of the connector shell to reveal the terminal block
and the cable tie/clamp bar.
3) Wire up the connector, remembering the correct orientation of the plug,
in accordance with the relevant cable schedule (see Section 2.2).
NOTE
Keep wire length as short as possible.
4) Ensure that the cable outer insulation is held in the clamp bar/cable tie
at the connector and tighten the clamp bar screws/cable tie. Refer to
Fig. 14.
5) Clip together the two halves of the connector shell ensuring that the
‘write-on’ label is held in place by the shell assembly.
The connector is now ready for use.
2.4 a.c. Power Input Plug
A rewireable a.c. power input plug is supplied with the processor, which will
accept any mating IEC connection. The plug complies with BS 4491 - EN60
320.
The wiring schedule of the plug assembly is shown in Fig. 15.
