Wiring
NOTE: THE POSITIVE WIRE IS RED AND THE NEGATIVE WIRE IS BLACK.
The standard input cables include VGA, DVI, RCA/S-Video, and DC Power cable. All cables exit the rear
of the monitor through a waterproof cable clamp. Note that the input cable ends are not waterproof and
should be placed or installed in a dry, protected area. DO NOT PULL CABLES TIGHT TO
PREVENT EXCESS STRAIN AND POSSIBLE BREAK IN CABLE CLAMP SEAL. Contact your
Argonaut Dealer if additional cable lengths are required in excess of standard provided.
Power
The R515/R515-HT monitor is designed for 12 Volt power input through an Argonaut supplied power
regulator. The correct regulator should be specified at time of ordering for connection to either a 12 volt or
24 volt system. The regulators accept a range of voltage (either 9 to 18V or 19 to 32V) and provide a steady
12 volts to the monitor.
NOTE: ANY DIRECT CONNECTION OF THE MONITOR TO 12 OR 24
VOLT POWER WITHOUT FIRST RUNNING THROUGH THE ARGONAUT SUPPLIED
REGULATOR COULD PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE MONITOR AND VOID YOUR
WARRANTY. DO NOT CONNECT THE REGULATOR TO VOLTAGE EXCEEDING THE
SPECIFIED RANGE AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE REGULATOR. DO NOT CONNECT THE
MONITOR DIRECTLY TO A/C POWER (110-220V) POWER AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE
DISPLAY AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO AVOID IMPROPER
CROSSING WIRES (POSITIVE TO NEGATIVE) AS THIS CAN DAMAGE THE DISPLAY
ELECTRONICS.
Care & Precautions
Care: The LCD has a special coating to prevent reflection. Clean with soft clean cloth dampened with fresh
water to remove residue. Follow up with alcohol and lens cleaning wipes if desired. If water has collected
in screen bezel, wipe dry before covering/storing. NOTE: DO NOT ALLOW SALT WATER
DEPOSITS TO REMAIN ON GLASS SURFACE FOR EXTENDED PERIODS (REMOVE SALT
DEPOSITS WITH FRESH WATER).
LONG TERM SALT DEPOSITS MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE SCREEN SURFACE. We recommend our optional custom fit
canvas cover to protect the display for extended periods in direct sunlight. Additional Precautions:
Do not operate in temperature extremes (below 32°F (0° C) or above 104 °F (40° C)). Do not put
pressure or contact directly on screen surface. Do not connect directly to power source without using
the regulator supplied. Do not reverse power wires. Do not expose to submersion or high pressure
water. Do not pull or strain cabling as this can break the cable clamp seal.
CAUTION: DO NOT EXPOSE THE BACK SIDE CABLING FOR R515 TO DIRECT WATER
CONTACT AS THE CABLES ARE NOT SEALED WATERPROOF. THE R515-HT MODEL
DOES HAVE SEALED WATERPROOF CABLES.
