TFT LCD technology 3
TFT LCD technology
Introduction
Your Raymarine sunlight viewable marine display is visible in direct sunlight. The colors of the display may seem to vary when viewed against a colored background or in colored light. This is a perfectly normal effect that will be seen with all color liquid crystal diplays (LCD’s).
In common with all Thin Film Transistor (TFT) displays, the screen may exhibit a few (less than 20) wrongly illuminated pixels. These may appear as black pixels in a light portion of the screen, or as colored pixels in black areas.
Installation
It is important that your new display is installed and operated in accordance with the instructions provided in this handbook. Failure to do so could result in poor product performance and may invalidate your warranty.
When planning the installation the following points must be considered:
Your Raymarine display is sunlight viewable and visible in direct sunlight. Th ere are , howev er, lim itatio ns to the amou nt of heat the display can absorb before developing problems.
If temperatures exceed the normal temperature operating range the display could overheat and begin to blackout due to the limiations of TFT LCD technology.
In order to minimze the chances of a malfunction, the following precautions should be taken during installation:
The display should be installed in an area where there is
proper and adequate ventilation. If it is possible to cool the area behind the di splay , it wi ll sig nifica ntly red uce the risk of a malfunction.
The display should be mounted at an angle to the sun.
We do not recommend mounting the unit in a flat plane, which increases th e surfac e area expos ed to the sun an d leads to increased heat absorption.
The suncover should be used when the display is not in
use.
IMPORTANT: Your Raymarine display is only waterproof from the front. To maintain watertight integrity the display must be flush mounted ensuring that the rear casing is enclosed in a watertight enclosure.
Full detai ls of ins talla tion can be fo und on p age 11 in the Instal­lation section.
