5 Installation

Page 40
LCD-KIT

5.1 Installation Precautions

When installing the LCD-KIT series monitor, please follow the precautions listed below:
Read the user manual: The user manual provides a complete description of
the LCD-KIT series monitor, installation instructions and configuration options.
DANGER! Disconnect Power: Power to the monitor must be disconnected
when installing the LCD-KIT series monitor, or before any attempt is made to
access the rear panel. Electric shock and personal injury might occur if the
rear panel of the monitor is opened while the power cord is still connected to
an electrical outlet.
Qualified Personnel: The LCD-KIT series monitor must be installed and
operated only by trained and qualified personnel. Maintenance, upgrades, or
repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel who are familiar with
the associated dangers.
Mounting: Since the monitor may weigh up to 10 kg (not including a swing
arm or other accessories), please ensure at least two people assist with
mounting the monitor.
Air Circulation: Make sure there is sufficient air circulation when installing the
monitor. The monitor’s cooling vents must not be obstructed by any objects.
Blocking the vents can cause overheating of the monitor. Leave at least 5 cm
of clearance around the monitor to prevent overheating.
Grounding: The monitor should be properly grounded. The voltage feeds
must not be overloaded. Adjust the cabling and provide external overcharge
protection per the electrical values indicated on the label attached to the back
of the monitor.
Anti-static Discharge : The rear panel of the monitor must to be removed to
configure the monitor’s AD board voltage select jumper. When doing so, be
sure the monitor is disconnected from its power source and take all necessary
safety precautions to avoid electrocution and static discharge to the AD board.
The use of a grounded wrist strap and an anti-static work pad is
recommended.

5.2 Unpacking

5.2.1 Packaging

When shipped, the LCD-KIT series monitor is wrapped in a plastic bag. Two polystyrene
ends are placed on either side of the monitor. The monitor is then placed into a first
(internal) cardboard box. This box is then sealed and placed into a second (external)
cardboard box. The second box is also sealed. A bag containing accessory items is
placed with the monitor in the internal (first) box.

5.2.2 Unpacking Procedure

To unpack the LCD-KIT series monitor, follow the steps below:
WARNING:
LCD-KIT
The front side LCD screen has a protective plastic cover stuck to the
screen. Only remove the plastic cover after the LCD-KIT series monitor
has been properly installed. This ensures the screen is protected
during the installation process.
Step 1: Use box cutters, a knife or a sharp pair of scissors that seals the top side of the
external (second) box.
Step 2: Open the external (second) box.
Step 3: Use box cutters, a knife or a sharp pair of scissors that seals the top side of the
internal (first) box.
Step 4: Lift the monitor out of the boxes.
Step 5: Remove both polystyrene ends, one from each side.
Step 6: Pull the plastic cover off the LCD-KIT series monitor.

A.1 RoHS Compliant

All models in the LCD-KIT series comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Materials
(RoHS) Directive. This means that all components used to build the industrial workstations
and the workstation itself are RoHS compliant.
The RoHS Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic
equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent
chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE)
flame retardants.

B Safety Precautions

Page 57
WARNING:
The precautions outlined in this chapter should be strictly followed.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in permanent damage to
the LCD-KIT Series.

B.1 Safety Precautions

Please follow the safety precautions outlined in the sections that follow:

B.1.1 General Safety Precautions

Please ensure the following safety precautions are adhered to at all times.
LCD-KIT
Follow the electrostatic precautions outlined below whenever the LCD-KIT
Series is opened.
Make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disco nnected
whenever the LCD-KIT Series is being installed, moved or modified.
Do not apply voltage levels that exceed the specified voltage range.
Doing so may cause fire and/or an electrical shock.
Electric shocks can occur if the LCD-KIT Series chassis is opened when
the LCD-KIT Series is running.
Do not drop or insert any objects into the ventilation openings of the
LCD-KIT Series.
If considerable amounts of dust, water , or fluids enter the LCD-KIT Series,
turn off the power supply immediately, unplug the power cord, and contact the
LCD-KIT Series vendor.
DO NOT:
o Drop the LCD-KIT Series against a hard surface. o Strike or exert excessive force onto the LCD panel. o Touch any of the LCD panels with a sharp object
Page 58
o In a site where the ambient temperature exceeds the rated temperature
LCD-KIT

B.1.2 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the LCD-KIT
Series may result in permanent damage to the LCD-KIT Series and
severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the LCD-KIT Series. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the LCD-KIT Series is opened and any of the electrical
components are handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging any electrical component.
Self-grounding: Before handling any electrical component, touch any
grounded conducting material. During the time the electrical component is
handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the
ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring or working with an electrical

Except for the LCD panel, never spray or squirt liquids directly onto any other
components. To clean the LCD panel, gently wipe it with a piece of soft dry
cloth or a slightly moistened cloth.
The interior of the LCD-KIT Series does not require cleaning. Keep fluids
away from the LCD-KIT Series interior.
Be cautious of all small removable components when vacuuming the LCD-KIT
Series.
Turn the LCD-KIT Series off before cleaning the LCD-KIT Series.
Never drop any objects or liquids through the openings of the LCD-KIT Series.
Be cautious of any possible allergic reactions to solvents or chemicals used
when cleaning the LCD-KIT Series.
Avoid eating, drinking and smoking within vicinity of the LCD-KIT Series.

B.2.2 Cleaning Tools

LCD-KIT
Some components in the LCD-KIT Series may only be cleaned using a product
specifically designed for the purpose. In such case, the product will be explicitly mentioned
in the cleaning tips. Below is a list of items to use when cleaning the LCD-KIT Series.
Cloth – Although paper towels or tissues can be used, a soft, clean piece of
cloth is recommended when cleaning the LCD-KIT Series.
Water or rubbing alcohol – A cloth moistened with water or rubbing alcohol
can be used to clean the LCD-KIT Series.
Using solvents – The use of solvents is not recommended when cleaning the
LCD-KIT Series as they may damage the plastic parts.
Vacuum cleaner – Using a vacuum specifically designed for computers is
one of the best methods of cleaning the LCD-KIT Series. Dust and dirt can
restrict the airflow in the LCD-KIT Series and cause its circuitry to corrode.
Cotton swabs - Cotton swaps moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are
excellent tools for wiping hard to reach areas.
Foam swabs - Whenever possible, it is best to use lint free swabs such as
foam swabs for cleaning.
