WARNING
• When connecting a power cable to the GP unit, be sure the cable has been unplugged
from the power outlet, so that you would not get an electric shock.
• High voltage runs in the GP unit, so if you take unit apart, there is a danger of getting an
electric shock. Do not take the unit apart.
• Do not use power beyond the specified voltage range. If you do, it may cause a fire or
an electric shock.
• Do not reconstruct the GP unit. It may cause a fire or an electric shock.
• Do not use the GP in an environment with flammable gas in the surrounding atmo-
sphere. It may cause explosion.
• GP use a lithium battery for backing up its internal clock data. If the battery is incor-
rectly replaced, the battery may explode. To avoid the danger, do not replace the
battery yourself. When the battery needs a replacement, please consult with your
local GP distributor.
• Do not use touch panel switches in life-related or important disaster prevention situ-
ations. For safety related switches, such as an emergency switch. use a separate mechanical switch.
• Please design your system so that the machine will not malfunction by a communica-
tion fault between the GP and its host controller. If not, there could be a danger of
injuring a person or damaging materials.
To Prevent From Damage:
• Do not hit the touch panel with a hard or heavy object, or press the touch panel with too
much force, for it may cause irreparable damage.
• Do not use GP in an environment where the surrounding temperature exceeds the
specification range, for it may damage the unit.
• Please ensure that liquids or metal do not enter the GP unit, for it may cause malfunc-
tion or a short.
• Please avoid using the unit in areas where sudden, large changes in temperature may
occur. These changes can cause condensation to form inside the unit, possibly causing an accident.
• To prevent from heat building up inside the GP, please do not install GP where its
ventilation holes may be blocked, or where heat cannot escape. Also, please avoid
using or storing the GP in an extremely hot place.
• Do not operate the GP in areas with temperatures and humidity in express of those
levels specified to prevent the GP’s touch panel from becoming warped or bent.
• Please avoid using or storing the GP under direct sunlight or in a dusty environment.
