1) Since front polarizer is easily damaged, pay attention not to scratch it.
2) Be sure to turn off power supply when inserting or disconnecting from input connector.
3) Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration or spots.
4) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or other soft cloth.
5) Since the panel is made of glass, it may break or crack if dropped or bumped on hard
surface.
6) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and insure human earth
when handling.
7) Do not open or modify the Module Assembly.
8) Do not press the reflector sheet at the back of the module to any directions.
9) In case a TFT-LCD Module has to be put back into the packing container slot after once it
was taken out from the container, do not press the center of the LED lightbar edge. Otherwise
the TFT-LCD Module may be damaged.
10) Insert or pull out the interface connector, be sure not to rotate nor tilt it of the TFT-LCD
Module.
11) Do not twist nor bend the TFT -LCD Module even momentary. It should be taken into
consideration that no bending/twisting forces are applied to the TFT-LCD Module from
outside. Otherwise the TFT-LCD Module may be damaged.
12) Please avoid touching COF position while you are doing mechanical design.
13) When storing modules as spares for a long time, the following precaution is necessary:
Store them in a dark place. Do not expose the module to sunlight or fluorescent light. Keep
the temperature between 5℃ and 35℃ at normal humidity.

The output signals of photo detector are measured when the input signals are changed
from “Black” to “White” (rising time, TR), and from “White” to “Black” (falling time, TF),
respectively. The response time is interval between the 10% and 90% of optical
response. (Black & White color definition: Please refer section 3.4.3)
Note 3-4: The equation is listed as following. Please don’t exceed the above recommended value.
Fclk (Min.) = Fv (Min.) x Th (Min.) x Tv (Min.);
Fclk (Typ.) = Fv (Typ.) x Th (Typ.) x Tv (Typ.);
Fclk (Max.) = Fv (Max.) x Th (Typ.) x Tv (Typ.);
