[General Notes]
• Never bundle control cables and input/output cables with high-voltage and large-current carrying cables such
as power supply cables. Keep these cables at least 200 mm away from high-voltage and large-current
carrying cables. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
• When using MONITOUCH in an environment where a source of high-frequency noise is present, it is
recommended that the FG shielded cable (communication cable) be grounded at its ends. However, the cable
may be grounded only at one end if necessary due to unstable communication conditions, or for any other
reason.
• Plug connectors or sockets of MONITOUCH in their correct orientation. Otherwise, malfunctions may occur.
• When an LAN cable is wrongly connected to the MJ1/MJ2 connector, the counterpart device may be damaged.
Double-check the connector to avoid improper insertion.
• Do not use thinners for cleaning because they may discolor the MONITOUCH surface. Use an alcohol-based
cleaner which is commercially available.
• If a "data receive error" occurs when MONITOUCH and the counterpart (PLC, temperature controller, etc.) are
started at the same time, read the manual for the counterpart unit and handle the error correctly.
• Avoid discharging static electricity on the mounting panel of MONITOUCH. Static charges can damage the
unit and cause malfunctions. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
• Avoid prolonged display of any fixed pattern. Due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal display, an
afterimage may occur. If a prolonged display of a fixed pattern is expected, use the auto OFF function of the
backlight.
[Notes on LCD]
Note that the following conditions may occur under normal circumstances:
• The response time, brightness and colors of MONITOUCH may be affected by ambient temperature.
• Tiny spots (dark or luminescent) may appear on the display due to liquid crystal characteristics.
• There are variations in brightness and colors on each unit.
• Color cathode tubes are incorporated into the LCD display for backlights. Optical properties (brightness,
irregular colors, etc.) may change in a low-temperature environment or over time of operation.
