1.2 Touchscreen Solution (Optional)
1.2.1 Five-Wire Resistive Touchscreen (Optional 1)
Introduction to Five-Wire Resistive Touchscreen
The five-wire resistive touchscreens use a glass panel with a uniform resistive coating. A thick polyester coversheet is tightly suspended over the top of the glass, separated by small, transparent insulating dots. The coversheet has a hard, durable
coating on the outer side and a conductive coating on the inner side.
When the screen is touched, the conductive coating makes electrical contact with the
coating on the glass. The voltages produced are the analog representation of the
position touched. The controller digitizes these voltages and transmits them to the
computer for processing. The five-wire technology utilizes the bottom substrate for
both X and Y-axis measurements. The flexible coversheet acts only as a voltagemeasuring probe. This means the touchscreen will continue working properly even
with non-uniformity in the cover sheet's conductive coating. The result is an accurate,
durable and reliable touchscreen that offers drift free operation. The touchscreens
are sealed against contamination and moisture. The coversheet is sealed to the
glass substrate with an industrial grade caulk. This prevents wicking of fluid between
the coversheet and glass. Also, the touchscreens are not air vented, thereby preventing fluid ingress through an air vent.

1.2.2 SecureTouch Surface Wave Touchscreen (Optional 2)
Introduction to SAW Touchscreen
The surface wave is the optical standard of touch. Its pure glass construction provides superior optical performance and makes it the most scratch-resistant technology available. It's nearly impossible to physically "wear out" this touchscreen.
The touch have a glass overlay with transmitting and receiving piezoelectric transducers for both the X and Y axes. The touchscreen controller sends a five-megahertz
electrical signal to the transmitting transducer, which converts the signal into ultrasonic waves within the glass. These waves are directed across the front surface of
the touchscreen by an array of reflectors. Reflectors on the opposite side gather and
direct the waves to the receiving transducer, which reconverts them into an electrical
signal—a digital map of the touchscreen surface.
Chapter 1 General Information
When you touch the screen, you absorb a portion of the wave traveling across it. The
received signal is then compared to the stored digital map, the change recognized,
and a coordinate calculated. This process happens independently for both the X and
Y axes. By measuring the amount of the signal that is absorbed, a Z-axis is also
determined. The digitized coordinates are transmitted to the computer for processing.

E Transflective Display
(Optional)
E.1 Transflective Display
Transflective LCD technology can be applied to certain selected regular TFT LCD to
introduce the LCD with a reflective function. With the imposed reflective function, the
modified LCD can reflect the ambient light passing the LCD cell and utilize the
reflected light beams as its illumination. The stronger the ambient light is, the brighter
the LCD will appear. As a result, the modified LCD is viewable under lighting conditions including direct sunlight.
E.2 Features
1. Readable under all lighting conditions including direct sunlight.
2. Enhanced contrast ratio for both indoor and outdoor conditions.
3. Ultimate indoor color saturation, brightness, and viewing angle.
4. Full mechanical and electrical are compliant with the existent system.
5. Power saving and backlight life preserving in outdoor applications.
No extra heat generation even it is viewed at higher brightness.
The following table shows the outdoor readability for the Marine Bridge System Display models.

E.3 Transflective Brightness Testing
E.3.1 Dark Room Testing Instructions
1. Put the panel on table and plug the inverter, adjust the screen to white color
background.
2. Open the brightness testing equipment and make the zero value on the Equip-
ment.
3. Put the brightness detection sensor on the front of the LCD panel to measure
the value.
4. Make sure that brightness on the OSD is adjusted to the maximum value.
5. After each time measure the brightness lamp level change, it is necessary to
wait for 30 minutes at least to ensure the brightness in the labs room in homogeneous or consistent.
6. All testing are applied to naked LCD without any glass or sensor on the front
side.

E.4 Caution on Handling Transflective LCD
E.4.1 Operation & Storage Temperature Caution
Although transflective LCD is mainly used in outdoor environment and can increase
the effective lights under sunlight, it is suggested that you should keep the LCD in
appropriate temperature for operation and storage. To ensure the transflective LCD
work stably, 0~50°C (32-121°F) operation and storage temperature is suitable.
Suggestion: Temperature 0~50°C (32-121°F) is appropriate for operation and storage on transflective LCD.
E.4.2 Contrast Ratio to Ambient Light Caution
Contrast ratio is a factor that can influence the readability. It is possible that we get
pretty high brightness measurement but the panel is not sunlight readable. For example, the LCD is in 80,000 nits outside ambient light level, even we have very high
brightness but the contrast to the ambient light is too low, we might not be able to see
the clear LCD screen image. In order to be sunlight readable, both brightness and
contrast ratio to the ambient light are needed to be in proper range.
Suggestion: It should make the proper contrast ratio to the ambient light condition to
ensure that LCD screen image is clear.
E.4.3 Protection Glass Selection
If you demand for built-in protection glass, it is needed to use the material whose
reflectance rate is less than 1%. It should be careful when using protection glass.
Generally, the reflectance rate of protection glass can be as high as 4~6%, but we
can provide the reflectance ration glass which is less 0.6%, so that the sunlight readability performance can work very well.
Suggestion: Select an appropriate glass if you need to built-in protection glass. In
addition, please feel free to inquire us for any protection glass information.
FPM-8192V/8232V User Manual 38
Appendix E Transflective Display (Optional)
E.5 Touchscreen Selection
Due to using pure glass instead of the coating, ELO SAW and IR touch are ideal
selection for touch solution on transflective LCD, they have lower reflectance rate
than traditional resistive and capacitive touchscreen that have coating on them.
Since our technology is based on transflective principle, the glass or sensor will
reduce the sunlight reflect out. It would have problem to use high reflectance sensor
or glass on transflective LCD.
Suggestion: ELO SAW and IR touch are recommended for touch screen solution on
transflective LCD.
