Receiving and Handling Instruction
1
1. Receiving and Handling Instructions
1.1 Receiving Inspection
Visually inspect the module for obvious shipping damage. If shipping damage is
apparent, file a claim with the carrier and submit a copy to Bently Nevada
Corporation.
1.2 Handling and Storing Considerations
Circuit boards contain devices that are susceptible to damage when exposed to
electrostatic charges. Damage caused by obvious mishandling of the board will
void the warranty. To avoid damage, observe the following precautions in the
order given.
• Do not discharge static electricity onto the circuit board. Avoid tools or
procedures that would subject the circuit board to static damage. Some
possible causes include ungrounded soldering irons, nonconductive plastics,
and similar materials.
• Personnel must be grounded with a suitable grounding strap (such as 3M
Velostat No. 2060) before handling or maintaining a printed circuit board.
• Transport and store circuit boards in electrically conductive bags or foil.
• Use extra caution during dry weather. Relative humidity less than 30% tends
to multiply the accumulation of static charges on any surface.
• When performed properly, this module may be installed into or removed from
the rack while power is applied to the rack. Refer to the Rack Installation and
Maintenance Manual (part number 129766-01) for the proper procedure.

2. General Information
The 3500 System Display lets you collect data from all active channels in a 3500
rack and display them on an LCD that can be mounted in a convenient location.
A 3500 Monitoring System can have up to two 3500 System Displays.
The 3500 System Display consists of three major components: The Display Unit,
the Display Interface Module, and the Display Interface I/O Module.
2.1 Display Unit
Two versions of the Display Unit can be ordered. The first version includes a
reflective LCD module with out a backlight. The second version of the Display
Unit includes a transflective LCD module with a backlight. The Display Unit can
be mounted over the front panel of a 3500 rack or mounted in a convenient
location away from the rack. Section 3 shows how to mount the unit. The
Display Unit is equipped with status LEDs, and a membrane-switch keypad.
Section 6 explains how to operate the Display Unit.
1) LCD Displays machine parameter information (See section 6.3)
2) Channel Status LEDs (See section 2.4.1)
3) New Alarm Event LED (See section 2.4.1)
4) Display Unit Status LED (See section 2.4.1)
5) Keypad Control Panel for user interface (See section 6)
6) Rack Status LEDs (See section (2.4.1)

General Information

2.2 Display Interface Module and I/O Module
The Display Interface Module and the Display Interface I/O Module are full-height
3500 modules that fit into a 3500 rack and support one Display Unit. The Display
Interface Module and the I/O module can be installed in any slot except when a
system face mount option is used. The Display Interface Module gathers and
provides the machine parameter information and the configurations to the
Display Unit upon request. It also provides the power to the non back-lighted
Display Unit that is installed within 100 feet of the Display Interface Module.
Sections 5.2 and 5.3 show how to connect the Display Unit to a Display Interface
I/O module.
1) LEDs Indicate the operating
status of the module. (See
section 2.4.2)
2) Display Communication Port
Retrieves machinery data from this
rack only, using RS422 interface.
3) Display Interface I/O Module
Optional module for extended
cable support.(See sections 5.2
and 5.3)
2.3 Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) Description
The Display Interface Module is considered a “consumer” of data because it
receives data from other modules, formats it, and sends it on to the Display Unit.
Since the Display Interface Module does not produce data or provide data to
other modules in the 3500 rack, a redundant Display Interface Module is not
required. However, for applications that require redundant System Displays or
require continuous display of more than 8 proportional values in bargraph format

3500/93 SYSTEM DISPLAY
4
(or 16 proportional values in text format), two Display Interface Modules can be
installed in the same rack to support two Display Units.
2.4 LED Description

3. Installing the Display Unit
The Display Unit can be mounted in one of four basic mounting configurations.
The four mounting configurations are System Face Mount, Rack Mount, Panel
Mount and Independent Mount. The following sections describe how to mount
the Display Unit for each of these mounting options in a typical installation.
3.1 Hardware Considerations
The slots in the rack are numbered from 0 to 15, counting from left to right. The
power supplies go into slot 0 and the Rack Interface module goes into slot 1.
Slots 2 through 15 are called “monitoring positions”. The 3500/93 module can be
installed into any of the monitoring positions, with the exception of the system
face mount used for the Display Unit. In this case the 3500/93 must be installed
in slot 15. The 3500/93 System Face Mount option is not compatible with the
3500/05 Mini-rack. Also, if the 3500/20 Rack Interface Module and Data Manager
I/O are to be used to interface to DDIX, TDIX or TDXnet, refer to the manual on
the 3500/20 for slot restrictions this may place on your configuration.

Configuration Information
13
4. Configuration Information
The 3500 Display Interface Module supports two types of display units, the 3500
Display Unit or optional third party Modbusdisplays. For information about
configuring the interface module for an optional Modbus® Display, contact Bently
Nevada Systems Integration Services through your local sales office. This
section shows how to configure the Display Interface Module to operate with the
3500 Display Unit.
Configuration lets you control how the data from the monitor modules in a 3500
rack is displayed on the 3500 Display Unit. Before you configure the Display
Interface Module, check that
•all other modules in the rack have been installed and configured.
•all active monitor channels in the rack have valid user channel names. Enter
these names in the Channel Configuration screens for the individual modules
(requires Rack Configuration Software version 2.31 or later).
You configure the Display Interface Module by creating custom display sets,
defining how the display unit presents information, and setting software switches.
You can also check the status of the Display Interface Module and the Display
Unit using the verification screen.
4.1 Creating Custom Display Sets
The 3500 Display Unit displays data from monitor modules in the rack by using
either a default display set or custom display sets. The default display set
includes the primary values of all active channels from all modules in the rack.
The default set begins with values from the left most module in the rack. The
values in the set proceed in the order that modules are installed in the rack from
left to right. You can display specific groups of proportional values that are of
particular interest to you by using the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to
create custom display sets.
Custom display sets can contain 8 values for bargraph displays and 16 values for
text displays. A set can include any combination of proportional values from any
active channels in the rack. You can define up to a total of 52 custom display
sets. The configuration software lets you assign names to each custom set.
These names will appear in the main menu of the Display Unit. This menu lets
you select which set of values are displayed on the 3500 Display Unit.
