Introduction

Analyzers intended either to be used in
hazardous area or for outdoor usage are
provided with a Touch Panel. This special
version ensures ingress protection (IP) and
resistance against mechanical shocks.

1-2 TOUCH PANEL ELEMENTS

Whereas standard front panels are using
keys for operating the analyzer the Touch
Panel uses contactless Infra Red (IR)
technology instead. This results in a
slightly different design:

On account of its design it requires some
special measures to operate the
corresponding analyzer in a safe manner,
so read the following instructions carefully!

Each standard panel key is replaced by
two drill holes: One for IR light outlet and
another for entry, as it is shown using the
BINOS 100 F Touch Panel for instance.

1-3 ACCESSORIES

To operate the Touch Panel a special tool
(actuator) is required. The following picture

IR entry

shows this tool as it should be provided
together with your analyzer. If it is missing
please contact your local sales office.

Operating the Touch Panel

2- 1 OPERATING THE TOUCH PANEL

Touch Panel

The Touch Panel is operated by reflecting
the IR light coming out of the drill hole into
the corresponding entry hole.
This is done by holding the actuator tool’s
bended end in front of the key in a way that
it is aligned in parallel to the glass’s
surface.

A green light („switch ctrl“) is turned on
when the actuator has the correct position
to activate the touch pad. It is placed right
above the keys with CAT 100 or above the
right side of the LCD with CAT 200.

CAUTION!

Do not touch the glass front
with the tool to avoid
scratching it!

Due to safety reasons and to avoid
unintended operation the IR sensitivity is
adjusted in a way that the Touch Panel
may not activate without using the tool.

To store the tool it is provided with a chain
to be fixed to one of the analyzers
mounting screws as it is shown using the
CAT for instance. In addition the mounting
provides a hook to suspend the tool when
not in use.
