Monitor Connecting and Turning On

The industrial LCD monitor KFM19_e can be connected to IBM PC systems equipped with corresponding graphics capability.
1. Connect the PC system’s video signal output interface to the video signal
input of the KFM19_e using the supplied video signal cable (depending on your ordering).
2. If your KFM19_e is equipped with touchscreen (with COM or USB connection)
you have to connect the touchscreen to the corresponding interface of the PC system using the supplied touchscreen cable connector.
3. Connect the power cord as described in the “Power Cord Connection”
chapter.
4. Push the “On/Off” button to turn on the monitor.
The PC should be set to an appropriate graphics mode that has the same resolution with the LCD panel to have a clear screen image.
19" Industrial LCD Monitor KFM19_e – User’s Manual (Version 1.10) 27
The colour representation of the image on each monitor can differ by physically causes and is dependent on the video signal source. If you prefer another colour temperature or want to adapt the colour representation of images on two monitors, you have to install these features in the OSD menu under “Color”. Execute these settings only after reaching of the full operating temperature of the monitor (approx. 30 minutes).
When the screen is not in use, it must be turned off or the pattern must be frequently changed by a screen saver. If it displays the same pattern for a long period of time, brightness down or “image sticking” may develop due to the structure of LC­Displays.

Calibrating the Touchscreen

After the installation of the touchscreen driver, you have to calibrate the touchscreen. The calibration serves two purposes:
Sets the active area of the touchscreen. Aligns the active area of the touchscreen to the screen’s image.
Before you calibrate the touchscreen, let the KFM19_e warm up for 30 minutes.
Calibration aligns the active touch-sensitive area of the touchscreen with the image on the display. Calibration also determines the edges of the screen’s image and locates the center of the touchscreen.
If the touchscreen is not calibrated properly, the active area of the touchscreen may not be aligned with the screen’s image.
To calibrate the touchscreen, open the touchscreen control panel program, and then select “Calibration”. Follow the instructions displayed on the screen. Fore more information on calibration, refer to the user documentation enclosed on the supplied CD with the touchscreen driver.
Do not use a hard or a pointed object to operate the touchscreen, since it can damage the touchscreen surface.

Maintenance and Prevention

Maintenance and Prevention

Kontron Embedded Computers systems only require minimal maintenance and care to keep them operating correctly.
Occasionally wipe the system with a soft dry cloth. Remove persistent dirt by use of a soft, slightly damp cloth (use only a mild
detergent).
Use no abrasives, abrasion sponges, steel wool, metal threads, or solvent like alcohol, acetone, washing gasoline to clean the displays protection pane or the surface of the touchscreen.
