Safety Information

Safety Info rmatio n
Before using the Planar EP Series, please read this manual thoroughly to help protect against damage to property, and to ensure personnel safety.
•Be sure to observe the following instructions.
•For your safety, be sure to observe ALL the warnings detailed in this manual.
•For installation or adjustment, please follow this manual’s instructions, and refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Safety Precautio ns

If water is spilled or objects are dropped inside the display, remove the power plug from the outlet immediately. Failure to do so may result in fire or
electrical shock. Contact your dealer for inspection.
If the display is dropped or the chassis is damaged, remove the power plug from the outlet immediately. Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Contact your dealer for inspection.
WAR NIN G! Wall mounts must be secure.
If the display is hung on a wall, the wall must be strong enough to hold it. Simply mounting it to wallboard or wall paneling won’t be adequate or safe.
Caution: The screen could be damaged by heavy pressure.
Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure will cause permanent damage. Displays should be mounted where viewers cannot touch the screen or insert small objects in the openings that will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.
Caution: The front polarizer is soft and subject to scratches from sharp objects.
The polarizer is a thin sheet of film laminated to the outside layer of glass on the LCD screen. Take care when handling items near the screen.
If the power cord or plug is damaged or becomes hot, turn off the main power switch of the display. Make sure the power plug has cooled down and remove the power plug from the outlet. If the display is still used in this
condition, it may cause a fire or an electrical shock. Contact your dealer for a replacement.

Imp o rtant Safety Instructio ns

1 Read these instructions.
2 Keep these instructions.
3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use the display near water.
6 Clean the LCD screens with an LCD screen cleaner or LCD wipes.
7 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or
other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
8 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete outlet.
Important Safety Instructions
9 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from any of the displays.
10 Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
11 Unplug all displays during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of
time.
12 You m us t fo ll ow a ll N at ion al Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware of
local codes and ordinances when installing your system.
13 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when any
of the displays have been damaged in any way. For example, if the AC power cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into a display, the displays have been exposed to rain or moisture, do not operate normally or have been dropped.
14 Keep the packing material in case the equipment should ever need to be
shipped.
15 Wall mounts must be secure. The wall must be strong enough to hold all displays,
brackets and cables.

Recommended Usage

16 Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure
will cause permanent damage. Displays should be mounted where viewers cannot touch the screen or insert small objects in the openings that will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.
17 The front polarizer is soft and subject to scratches from sharp objects. The
polarizer is a thin sheet of film laminated to the outside layer of glass on the LCD screen. Take care when handling items near the screen.
Reco mmended Usage
In order to get the most out of your LCD, use the following recommended guidelines to optimize the display.

Burn-In Versus Temp o rary Image Retentio n

Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way to correct the problem. Under normal use, an LCD will not experience burn-in, as plasma displays do, nor will it retain images in any way.
Normal use of an LCD is defined as displaying continuously changing video patterns or images. However, LCDs can experience temporary image retention when recommended usage guidelines are not followed.
What is Temp o rary Image Retentio n?
Temp or ar y im ag e re te nt io n (TI R) c an o cc ur when a static image is displayed continuously for extended periods of time (12 hours or longer). An electrical charge differential may build up between the electrodes of the liquid crystal, which causes a negative-color video image (color-inverted and brightness-inverted version of the previous image) to be retained when a new image is displayed. This behavior is true for any LCD device from any LCD manufacturer.
TIR is not covered under warranty. See standard warranty terms and conditions for details. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid TIR:
• Use the LCD to show a screen saver, moving images or still pictures that change regularly. When using high-contrast images, reposition the images frequently.
• Turn off the LCD when it is not in use. To use your source computer’s Power Options Properties, set up your computer to turn off the display when not in use.

Normal Usage Guidelines

No rmal Usage Guidelines
Normal use of the LCD is defined as operating in the open air to prevent heat buildup, and without direct or indirect heat sources such as lighting fixtures, heating ducts, or direct sunlight that can cause the modules to experience high operating temperatures. For all modules, do not block fans or ventilation openings. If the LCD module will be installed in a recessed area with an LCD surround or enclosure, ensure adequate openings are applied for proper air flow and ventilation.
At 3000 meters or below, the maximum ambient operating temperature for the LCD module cannot be above 40º C nor below the minimum ambient operating temperature of 0º C. If one of these conditions exists, it is up to the installer to ensure that module placement is changed, thermal shielding is provided and/or additional ventilation is provided to keep the display within its nominal operating parameters.
Co o ling Requirements
For optimal performance, active cooling by the installer should be planned for when the ambient temperature at the top of the wall is predicted to be above the specified ambient temperature for the panel. Cooling may be done behind the displays and depending on the wall configuration, it may be helpful to place air ducts (AC) at every third display tall.

VESA Mo unts, General Descrip tio n

VESA mounts are used to secure the Planar EP Series for display. The display can be installed using a variety of VESA mounts available through Planar. If you do not have a VESA mount and would like to purchase one, contact Planar.
If you purchased a VESA mount, you should have a received a separate box with mounting supplies and an Installation manual. Follow these instructions carefully.
Keep in mind the following general installation guidelines:
•Screw length is crucial and will vary depending on the type of mount you use. Tota l sc re w le ng th w il l in cl ud e th e pene tr ation length plus the length required by the type of VESA mount in use.
•Mount spacers may be required to accommodate the protruding back panel of the OPS slot.
Caution: Shorter screws will result in insufficient mounting strength and longer screws
could puncture parts inside the display.
•Prior to installation, make sure you know where all of the mounting points are located.
•Follow all safety precautions outlined in the VESA Installation manual.
•Verify the parts received with the list shown in the VESA Installation manual.
