2 Installation
Location of the unit
The RPM70/RPM80 and SP70/SP80 instruments should be mounted with special regard to the unit’s environmental protection, temperature range and cable length. Refer to the Specifications chapter.
Avoid mounting the unit where it is easily exposed to sunlight, as this may unintendedly overheat the unit.
For RPM70 and SP70 a weather cover is included and the cover should be put on when the unit is not in use.
Panel mounting
The mounting surface must be flat and even to within
0.5 mm.

Cable connection and interface
Signal input, network and power supply are wired to the enclosed terminal block that is to be plugged in on the rear side.
The instrument is delivered with a 0.3 m SimNet cable with a standard SimNet plug in both ends. One plug must be cut off and the wires connected to terminals 3 through 6 according to the color codes shown below.

If several instruments are connected via SimNet, the instruments can be grouped in different light banks. Changing the backlight settings on one of the instruments will affect all instruments in the group. Refer to Light bank selection in Changing the default settings chapter.
Error Alarm
In the event the error indicator is lit, the instrument is not operable and service/repair is required.

Maintenance
The IS70/IS80 instruments are “repair by replacement” units, and the operator is therefore required to perform only a very limited amount of preventive maintenance.
If the unit requires any form of cleaning, use fresh water and a mild soap solution (not a detergent). It is important to avoid using chemical cleaners and hydrocarbons such as diesel, petrol etc.
If a weather cover is available this should be put on when the unit is not in use.

Operation chapter.
MAIN MODE
Light bank selection
The light bank function is used to globally control light settings for a group of units that are connected via the
SimNet network.
By assigning several units to the same group, the light adjustment on one unit will be effective on the rest of the members in the same group.
