Customer Installation

2)Align the end of the connector cable with the Coax connector that is on the back of the Logic element (see Figure 2-1 on Page 2-3). Connect the cable and secure it in place by turning the retaining ring clockwise until it is tight.

Setting Up the Display Screen

The 1483 is designed to operate with color SVGA and/or VGA monitors, or monochrome SVGA or VGA monitors. Depending on whether you have a color or monochrome monitor, follow one of the procedures below to set up the screen before you turn power on the first time.

Color Monitor

1)Determine the type of monitor (SVGA, VGA, or combined SVGA/VGA) you have. You will set the monitor to operate in SVGA or VGA mode.

2)Press and hold one of the following function keys while you turn the Power-On/Off switch to On:

•F1 – Sets the monitor to color SVGA mode.

•F2 – Sets the monitor to color VGA mode (default).

•F7 – For multifrequency monitors that can operate up to 42 KHz, sets the vertical refresh rate to 75 Hz.

Monochrome Monitor

1)Determine whether you have a 14-inch VGA or 15-inch SVGA monochrome monitor (measured diagonally).

2)Press and hold one of the following function keys while you turn the Power-On/ Off switch to On:

•F3 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch monochrome VGA mode with “color” menus that display varying monochrome intensities in different fields. This mode is preferred for US operation.

•F4 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch monochrome VGA mode with “color” menus that display varying monochrome intensities. This setting gives a different set of intensity defaults than those generated by pressing F3.

•F5 – Sets the terminal to 15-inch SVGA mode.

•F6 – Sets the monitor to 14-inch or 15-inch monochrome with overscan. (For use only with monitors that support overscan).
