Installation Instructions
Preparing for Installation
Important! Perform the following steps BEFORE Installation of the monitor into the
panel.
1. Ensure that sufficient power is available.
2. Ensure that sufficient space is available to allow for proper air flow into and out of
the unit.
3. Ensure that the air temperature around the unit (top and bottom) will not exceed the
rated specifications of the unit.
•The maximum rated temperature of the HIS-ML17 is 50°C (122°F)
•Remember that heat rises – the temperature at the top of the cabinet
will be much hotter than at the bottom when the air is not circulating.
•Also, remember that even though this product is designed to operate
at 50°C, the life span of any electronic device is shortened when it is
consistently operated at high temperatures. Therefore it is wise to take
steps to keep the temperature of the ambient air around the unit as low
as possible.
4. Ensure that the ambient humidity of the air around the unit does not exceed the
rated specifications for the unit.
•The maximum rated humidity for the HIS-ML17 is 90% non-condensing

Installation into Panel
1. Refer to the drawing below.
2. Locate position in panel for mounting of the monitor. Ensure that there is adequate
space begin the panel. Allow extra space (0.5 in. behind and on each side) for air
ventilation.
3. Cut a rectangular hole in the panel. Clean and deburr.
Dimensions: 16.02” (406mm) W x 12.72” (323mm) H ; +/- .020”
4. Separate the rear collar from the unit by removing the 12 nuts.
5. Insert the unit into the front of the panel and re-attach the collar.
6. Tighten all
12 nuts to a torque of 24 inch-pounds to assure a water-tight seal be-
tween the poron bezel gasket on the monitor and equipment panel. HIS will not
assume liability for damage to internal electronics due to improper installation.
