Liquid crystal display characteristics
• Although liquid crystal displays are manufactured using high-precision technology, dead (black) pixels and constantly-lit (white) pixels may be
visible. This is normal. Be aware that such displays will not be accepted for replacement or return.
• The color tone of the liquid cr
ystal displays used with this product may vary depending on the product and the manufacturing process. Also, slight
color shading may occur as a result of temperature changes and so on. Be aware that this is normal.
• Although ghosting may occur after displaying the same image for long periods, this is not a defect. The ghosting will disappear after a short time. To
prevent this phenomenon, we recommend using the power management feature to automatically turn the display off, or using a screen saver.
• Unevenness
or a small number of dots may become apparent depending on the display conditions. This is normal.
Use of this product in safety-control applications
This product is intended for general applications, including office use, personal use and home use. It was not designed or manufactured for use in
safety-control applications. You must not use this product to implement measures to ensure safety required for applicable safet y-control applications.
Safety-control applications refer to applications that require extreme
safety, such as the examples below, and are accompanied with the potential for
serious physical risk or direct risk to life if safety is not maintained.
• Control of nuclear reactions at nuclear power stations, automatic flight control systems, airport traffic control, heavy transport logistics, medical
equipment for life support, missile launch control in weapons systems, etc.
• Components with a limited lifetime (e.g., LCD display and hard drive).
The life of these components varies according to the frequency
and conditions of use. Replacement of limited-life components is estimated to be
approximately five years when used for about eight hours per day. This is only a guide, and does not guarantee that defects will not occur or that
repairs will be implemented free of charge. Parts may need to be replaced more quickly depending on usage conditions, such as continuous use for a
long period of time.
Continued use of the aluminum electrolytic capacitor used in this product after its life has expired may result in the leakage o
r draining of electrolytes,
or the emission of offensive odors or smoke. Therefore, we recommend replacing it early on. (The customer is responsible for replacing consumable
items, such as battery packs and batteries, with new products.)
• This product is not designed for continuous use of more than 24 hours.
This product should be operated under the following conditions. (During operation) temperature: 10-35°C; relative humidity: 20-80%. (When not in use)
10-60°C & 20-90%. (Condensation should be avoided at all
times.)
