Essential Safety Precautions

All safety-related procedures stated in this document must be followed to operate the AGP correctly and safely. Be sure to
read this and any related documents thoroughly to understand the correct operation and functions of the AGP unit.

Safety Icons

Throughout this manual, these icons provide essential safety information for AGP operation procedures requiring special
attention. These icons indicate the following levels of danger:

Indicates situations where severe bodily injury, death or major equipment damage
can occur.

Indicates situations where slight bodily injury or minor equipment damage can
occur.

Indicates actions or procedures that should NOT be performed.

Indicates actions or procedures that MUST be performed to ensure correct unit
operation.

System Design

Do not create AGP touch panel switches that could possibly endanger the safety of personnel or equip­ment. A malfunction of the AGP unit, its I/O unit(s), cable(s), or other related equipment can cause unex­pected output signals, leading to a serious accident. Be sure to design all important machine operation
switches so they are operated via a separate control system, and not via the AGP.

Do not create AGP touch panel switches to control machine safety operations, such as an emergency
stop switch. Install these switches as separate hardware switches, otherwise severe bodily injury or equip­ment damage can occur.

Be sure to design your system so that a communication fault between the AGP and its host controller will
not cause equipment to malfunction. This is to prevent any possibility of bodily injury or equipment dam­age.

Do not use the AGP as a warning device for critical alarms that can cause serious operator injury,
machine damage or can halt system operation. Critical alarm indicators and their control/activator units
must be designed using stand-alone hardware and/or mechanical interlocks.

2

Do not use the AGP with aircraft control devices, aerospace equipment, central trunk data transmi ssion
(communication) devices, nuclear power control devices, or medical life support equipment, due to these
devices' inherent requirements of extremely high levels of safety and reliability.

Be sure to use redundant and/or failsafe system designs to ensure adequate levels of system reliability
and safety when using the AGP with transportation vehicles (trains, cars and ships), disaster and crime
prevention devices, various types of safety equipment, non-life support related medical devices, and other
similar equipment.

After the AGP unit's backlight burns out the touch panel is still active, unlike the AGP unit's "Standby
Mode". If the operator fails to notice that the backlight is burned out and touches the panel, a potentially
dangerous machine operation error can occur. Therefore, do not create AGP unit touch panel switches
that may cause injury and/or equipment damage. If your AGP unit's backlight suddenly turns OFF, use the
following steps to determine if the backlight is actually burned out.

1) If the AGP unit's "Backlight Control" is not set and the screen has gone blank, your backlight is burned out.

2) If the AGP unit's "Backlight Control" is set to Standby Mode and the screen has gone blank, and touch­ing the screen or performing another input operation does not cause the display to reappear, your back­light is burned out.

To prevent an accidental machine operation error, Pro-face suggests you use the AGP unit's built-in burn­out detection feature. This feature will automatically detect a backlight burnout and disable the touch
screen. (factory default setting is enabled).

Handling

Do not modify the AGP unit. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.

Do not operate the AGP in an environment where flammable gases are present, since it may cause an
explosion.

Wiring

To prevent an electric shock be sure to disconnect your AGP unit's power cord from the power supply
before wiring the AGP.

Do not use voltage beyond the AGP unit's specified range. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.

Maintenance

Do not connect or disconnect Host/PLC and AGP unit communication cables while the AGP is turned ON.

Do not replace the AGP unit's battery yourself. The AGP uses a lithium battery for backing up its internal
clock data and the battery may explode if it is replaced incorrectly. When replacement is required, please
contact your local AGP distributor.

3

Installation

Be sure all cable connectors are securely attached to the AGP unit. A loose connection may cause incor­rect input or output signals.

Wiring

Be sure to ground the AGP unit's FG wire separately from other equipment FG lines. Also, be sure to use

2

a grounding resistance of 100Ω or less and a 2mm
Be sure to use only the designated torque to tighten the AGP unit's terminal block screws. If these screws

are not tightened firmly, it may cause a short-circuit, fire or incorrect unit operation.
Be sure that metal particles and wiring debris do not fall inside the AGP unit. They can cause a fire, mal-

function or incorrect unit operation.

or thicker wire, or your country's applicable standard.

Maintenance

Be sure to turn the AGP unit's CF Card ACCESS switch OFF and confirm that the ACCESS lamp is not lit
prior to inserting or removing a CF Card. Otherwise, CF Card internal data may be damaged or lost.

Do not reset or turn the AGP OFF , or insert or remove the CF Card while the AGP unit's CF Card is being
accessed. Create special application screens to perform operations like turning power OFF, resetting the
AGP or inserting or removing the CF Card.

Unit Disposal

Be sure to dispose of the AGP according to your country's industrial waste disposal standards.

General Safety Precautions

Do not press on the AGP unit's display with excessive force or with a hard object, since it can damage the
display. Also, do not press on the touch panel with a pointed object, such as the tip of a mechanical pencil
or a screwdriver, since doing so can damage the touch panel.

Do not install the AGP where the ambient temperature exceeds the specified range. Doing so may cause
a unit malfunction.

To prevent abnormally high temperatures from occurring inside the AGP, do not restrict or block the AGP
unit's rear-face ventilation slots.

Do not operate the AGP in areas where large, sudden temperature changes can occur. These changes
can cause condensation to form inside the AGP, possibly causing it to malfunction.

Do not allow water, liquids or metal fragments to enter inside the AGP unit's case, since they can cause
either a malfunction or an electric shock. The allowable pollution degre e is 2.

4

Do not operate or store the AGP in locations where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, high tempera­tures, excessive dust, moisture or vibration.

Do not operate or store the AGP where chemicals evaporate, or where chemicals are present in the air.

Corrosive chemicals: Acids, alkalines, liquids containing salt
Flammable chemicals: Organic Solvents

Do not use paint thinner or organic solvents to remove dirt or oil from the AGP unit's surface. Instead, use
a soft cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

Do not use or store the AGP in areas with direct sunlight, since the sun's ultraviolet rays may cause the
LCD's quality to deteriorate.

Do not store the AGP in an area where the temperature is lower than that recommended in the AGP unit's
specifications. Doing so may cause the LCD display's liquid to congeal, which can damage the LCD. Also,
if the storage area's temperature becomes higher than the specified level, the LCD's liquid may become
isotropic, causing irreversible damage to the LCD. Therefore, only store the AGP in areas where tempera­tures are within the AGP unit's specifications.

After turning OFF the AGP, be sure to wait a few seconds before turning it ON again. The AGP may not
operate correctly if it is restarted too quickly.

Due to the possibility of unexpected accidents, be sure to back up the AGP unit's screen data regularly.

LCD Panel Usage Precautions

• The LCD panel's liquid contains an irritant. If the panel is damaged and any of this liquid contacts your skin, immedi­ately rinse the area with running water for at least 15 minutes. If the liquid gets in your eyes, immediately rinse your
eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes and consult a doctor.

• The AGP unit's LCD screen may show unevenness in the brightness of certain images or at some contrast settings.
This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

• The AGP unit's LCD screen pixels may contain minute black and white-colored spots. This is an LCD characteristic
and not a product defect.

• The color displayed on the AGP unit's LCD screen may appear different when seen from outside the specified viewing
angle. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

• When the same image is displayed on the AGP unit's screen for a long period, an afterimage may appear when the
image is changed. If this happens, turn off the AGP, wait 10 seconds and then restart the unit. This is an LCD charac­teristic and not a product defect.

• T o preven t an afterimage:

• Set the AGP unit's display OFF feature when you plan to display the same screen image for a long period of time.

• Change the screen image periodically and try to not display the same image for a long period of time.

*1 The front face of the AGP unit, installed in a solid panel, has been tested using conditions equivalent to

the standards shown in the specification. Even though the AGP unit’ s level of resistance is equivalent to
these standards, oils that should have no effect on the AGP can possibly harm the unit. This can occur in
areas where either vaporized oils are present, or where low viscosity cutting oils are allowed to adhere to
the unit for long periods of time. If the AGP’s front face protection sheet becomes peeled off, these con ­ditions can lead to the ingress of oil into the AGP and separate protection measures are suggested. Also,
if non-approved oils are present, it may cause deformation or corrosion of the front panel’s plastic cover .
Therefore, prior to installing the AGP be sure to confirm the type of conditions that will be present in the
AGP’s operating environment. If the installation gasket is used for a long period of time, or if the unit
and its gasket are removed from the panel, the original level of the protection cannot be guaranteed. To
maintain the original protection level, be sur e to replace the installation gasket regularly.

Resolution
Clock Accuracy + 65 seconds/ month (at room temperature)

• The AGP’s internal clock has a slight error. At normal operating temperatures and conditions,
with the AGP operating from its lithium battery, the degree of error is 65 seconds per month.
Variations in operating conditions and battery life can cause this error to vary from -380 to +90
seconds per month. For systems where this degree of error will be a problem, the user should be
sure to monitor this error and make adjustments when required.

2.3 Interface Specifications

• The AGP unit’s serial port is not isolated. When the host (PLC) unit is also not
isolated, be sure to connect the #5 SG (Signal Ground) terminal to reduce the risk
of damaging the RS-232C/RS-422 circuit.

• Inside the AGP unit, the SG (Signal Ground) and FG (Frame Ground) terminals
are connected.

• When connecting an external device to the AGP using the SG terminal, be sure
to check that no short-circuit loop is created when you setup the system.

3.1.1 Installation Procedures

Follow the steps given below when installing the AGP.

Check the Installation Gasket’s Seating

It is strongly recommended that you use the installation gasket, since it absorbs vibration in addition to repel­ling water.
Place the AGP on a level surface with the display panel facing downward. Check that the AGP’s installation
gasket is seated securely into the gasket’s groove, which runs around the perimeter of the panel’s frame.
For the procedure for attaching the installation gasket, refer to "6.1.2 Installation Gasket Check/Replace­ment."

SEE

6.1.2 Installation Gasket Check/Replacement (page6-2)

• Before installing the AGP into a cabinet or panel, check that the installation gas­ket is securely attached to the unit.

• A gasket which has been used for a long period of time may have scratches or
dirt on it, and could have lost much of its dust and drip resistance. Be sure to
change the gasket periodically (or when scratches or dirt become visible).

• Be sure the gasket used is model CA3-WPG6-01.

• Be sure the gasket’s seam is not inserted into any of the unit’s corners, only in the
straight sections of the groove. Inserting it into a corner may lead to its eventually
tearing.

Area

• Check that the installation panel or cabinet’s surface is flat, in good condition and has no jagged
edges. Also, if desired, metal reinforcing strips can be attached to the inside of the panel, near
the Panel Cut, to increase the panel’s strength.

• Panel thickness should be from 1.6mm [0.06in.] to 5.0mm [0.2 in.]. Decide the
panel’s thickness based on the level of panel strength required.

1.6mm [0.06in.] to 5mm [0.2 in.]

• For easier maintenance, operation, and improved ventilation, be sure to install
the AGP at least 100 mm [3.94 in.] away from adjacent structures and other

3.2.1 Connecting the Power Cord

To avoid an electric shock, prior to connecting the AGP unit's power cord terminals to the
power terminal block, confirm that the AGP unit's power supply is completely turned OFF,
via a breaker, or similar unit.

AGP3300-L1-D24/AGP3300-S1-D24/AGP3300-T1-D24/AGP3301-L1-D24/AGP3301-S1­D24/AGP3302-B1-D24 units are designed to use only DC24V input. Any other power level
can damage both the AGP and the power supply.

Since there is no power switch on the AGP unit, be sure to attach a breaker- type swit ch to
its power cord.

When the FG terminal is connected, be sure the wire is grounded.

Chapter 3 Installation and Wiring

• When the FG terminal is connected, be sure the wire is grounded. Not grounding
the AGP unit will result in excess noise and vibration.

• The SG and FG terminals are connected internally in the AGP unit.

• When connecting the SG wire to another device, be sure that the design of the
system/connection does not produce a shorting loop.

This chapter explains cautions and inspection criteria that will ensure trouble-free use of the AGP.

AGP-3300 Series User Manual

6.1 Regular Cleaning

6.1.1 Cleaning the Display

When the surface or frame of the display become dirty, soak a soft cloth in water with a neutral deter gent,
wring the cloth tightly, and wipe the display.

• Do not use paint thinner, organic solvents, or a strong acid compound to clean the
unit.

• Do not use hard or pointed objects to operate the touch-screen panel, since it can
damage the panel surface.

6.1.2 Installation Gasket Check/Replacement

The installation gasket protects the AGP and improves its water resistance.

• A gasket which has been used for a long period of time may have scratches or
dirt on it, and could have lost much of its water resistance. Be sure to change the
gasket at least once a year, or when scratches or dirt become visible.

Installation Gasket Attachment Procedure

(1) Place the AGP on a flat, level surface facing the display face downwards.
(2) Remove the gasket from the AGP.

Gasket

6-2

Chapter 6 Maintenance

(3) Attach the new gasket to the AGP. Be sure to insert the gasket into the AGP’s groove so that the gasket’ s

groove sides are vertical.

(4) Check that the gasket is attached correctly to the AGP.

• The gasket must be inserted correctly into the groove for the AGP’s moisture
resistance to be equivalent to IP65f.

• Be sure the gasket’s seam is not inserted into any of the unit’s corners, only in the
straight sections of the groove. Inserting it into a corner may lead to its eventually
tearing.

• The upper surface of the gasket should protrude approximately 2 mm out from
the groove. Be sure to check that the gasket is correctly inserted before installing
the AGP into a panel.

• To ensure stable resistance against dust and moisture, insert the gasket so that
the seam is at the bottom of the AGP unit.

6.2 Periodic Check Points

T o keep your AGP unit in its best condition, please inspect the following points periodically.

AGP Operation Environment

• Is the operating temperature within the allowable range (0°C to 50°C)?

• Is the operating humidity within the specified range (10%RH to 90%RH, dry bulb temperature of 39°C or
less)?

• Is the operating atmosphere free of corrosive gasses?

Electrical Specifications

• Is the input voltage appropriate?
(DC19.2V to DC28.8V)

Related Items

• Are all power cords and cables connected properly? Have any become loose?

• Are all mounting brackets holding the unit securely?

• Are there many scratches or traces of dirt on the installation gasket?

6.3 Replacing the backlight
