Usage Notice
WARNING: TO AVOID FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THE MONITOR TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT OPEN OR DISASSEMBLE THE MONITOR.
DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
Precautions
To maximize the life and safe use of your unit, always be sure to follow the warnings, precautions, and maintenance recommendations in this user’s manual.
In a vehicle
The monitor should be visible to the driver only if it is used for navigation, system control, or
vehicle information. If the monitor will be used for other purposes, it should be installed in such a way that it will only operate while the vehicle is not moving (such as when the parking brake is in use), or so that its display is not visible to the driver. Review all applicable state and local laws and regulations to make sure the monitor is used properly and safely.
Avoid using the monitor for extended times while the vehicle is not running, or the monitor
could drain the vehicle’s battery.
Cleaning the monitor
Always turn off the unit before cleaning.
Use only a dry soft cloth when cleaning the LCD touch-panel surface.
Use a soft cloth moistened with mild detergent, isopropyl alcohol, or window cleaners to clean
the display housing.
Never touch the surface of the display with a sharp object.
Never use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents to clean the unit.
Introducing the Planar LX1200TR Touch Monitor
The LX1200TR is a high-performance, rugged touch monitor intended for demanding environments, such as those inside motor vehicles. The monitor features a 12.1-inch diagonal liquid crystal display, with SVGA resolution, bright enough to be read in full sunlight. The monitor also includes stereo speakers, and a sturdy magnesium enclosure that can withstand shock and vibration.

Features
The brightness control allows you to easily adjust the display to match the ambient light, from
full sunlight to night, even while wearing gloves. Its convenient dial design also enables you to quickly hide the information on the screen when needed (“screen blanking”).
The monitor’s transflective display uses reflected light from the environment — even direct
sunlight —to provide a bright image that can be easily viewed under any lighting conditions.
The monitor’s autosync function eliminates the need for adjusting the monitor for the best
image— the monitor automatically makes any needed adjustments whenever it is powered up or the display mode is changed.
Two Type A USB connections are available for connecting peripheral devices such as a
keyboard, mouse, or USB drive.
The monitor supports standard VGA signal input — native 800 x 600 SVGA resolution —
as well as 1024 x 768 XGA and 640 x 480 VGA.
The monitor’s magnesium enclosure is splash-resistant, and designed to withstand shock and
vibration for greater endurance and reliability.
