Note (2) The voltage shown above should be applied to the lamp for more than 1 second after startup.

Otherwise the lamp may not be turned on.

Note (3) The lamp frequency may generate interference with horizontal synchronous frequency from the

display, and this may cause line flow on the display. In order to avoid interference, the lamp
frequency should be detached from the horizontal synchronous frequency and its harmonics as far
as possible.

Note (4) P

Note (5) The lifetime of lamp is defined as the time when it continues to operate under the conditions at Ta

C and IL =8.0mA

until one of the following events occurs:

RMS

(a) When the brightness becomes ≤ 50% of its original value.
(b) When the effective ignition length becomes ≤ 80% of its original value. (Effective ignition length

is defined as an area that the brightness is less than 70% compared to the center point.)

Note (6) The waveform of the voltage output of inverter must be area-symmetric and the design of the

inverter must have specifications for the modularized lamp. The performance of the Backlight,
such as lifetime or brightness, is greatly influenced by the characteristics of the DC-AC inverter for
the lamp. All the parameters of an inverter should be carefully designed to avoid generating too
much current leakage from high voltage output of the inverter. When designing or ordering the
inverter please make sure that a poor lighting caused by the mismatch of the Backlight and the
inverter (miss-lighting, flicker, etc.) never occurs. If the above situation is confirmed, the module
should be operated in the same manners when it is installed in your instrume nt.

The LCD module should be stabilized at given temperature for 15 minutes to avoid abrupt
temperature change during measuring. In order to stabilize the luminance, the measurement
should be executed after lighting Backlight for 15 minutes in a windless room

8. PRECAUTIONS

8.1 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

(1) The module should be assembled into the system firmly by using every mounting hole. Be careful not

to twist or bend the module.

(2) While assembling or installing modules, it can only be in the clean area. The dust and oil may cause

electrical short or damage the polarizer.

(3) Use fingerstalls or soft gloves in order to keep display clean during the incoming inspection and

assembly process.

(4) Do not press or scratch the surface harder than a HB pencil lead on the panel because the polarizer is

very soft and easily scratched.

(5) If the surface of the polarizer is dirty, please clean it by some absorbent cotton or soft cloth. Do not use

Ketone type materials (ex. Acetone), Ethyl alcohol, Toluene, Ethyl acid or Methyl chloride. It might
permanently damage the polarizer due to chemical reaction.

(6) Wipe off water droplets or oil immediately. Staining and discoloration may occur if they left on panel for

a long time.

(7) If the liquid crystal material leaks from the panel, it should be kept away from the eyes or mouth. In

case of contacting with hands, legs or clothes, it must be washed a way thoroug hly with soap.
(8) Protect the module from static electricity, it may cause damage to the C-MOS Gate Array IC.
(9) Do not disassemble the module.
(10) Do not pull or fold the lamp wire.
(11) Pins of I/F connector should not be touched directly with bare hands.

8.2 STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

(1) High temperature or humidity may reduce the performance of module. Please store LCD module within

the specified storage conditions.
(2) It is dangerous that moisture come into or contacted the LCD module, because the moisture may

damage LCD module when it is operating.
(3) It may reduce the display quality if the ambient temperature is lower than 10 ºC. For example, the

response time will become slowly, and the starting voltage of lamp will be higher than the room

temperature.

8.3 OPERATION P RECAUTIONS

(1) Do not pull the I/F connector in or out while the module is ope rating.
(2) Always follow the correct power on/off sequence when LCD module is connecting and operating. This

can prevent the CMOS LSI chips from damage during latch-up.
(3) The startup voltage of Backlight is approximately 1000 Volts. It may cause electrical shock while

assembling with inverter. Do not disa ssemble the module or insert anything into the Backlight unit.

10. INCOMING INSPECTION DAY

The Supplier should be acquainted the inspection results (accep tance or rejection) by Customer, and the results

are in accordance with the incoming inspection standard within 30 days after the date of the bills of lading.
Should Customer fail to so notify the Supplier within the said 30 days period. The Customer’s right to reject the
LCMS shall then lapse, and the said LCMS shall be deemed to have been accepted by the customer.
