  • Page 8 The sensor should be positioned on the LCD with the sensor active area (as defined on the Zytronic product drawing) matched to the LCD display area. The glass face (with ‘Viewing Face’ label) should be visible, as shown in Figure 4. The sensor can be positioned as shown or rotated by 180 degrees (so that the flexible cables are on the bottom and right edges).
  • Page 9 SENSOR MOUNTED ONTO LCD WITH GASKET Zytronic do not recommend the application of gasket, sealants or adhesives directly over the flexible cable joint area of the touch sensor, or the modification/removal of the pre-applied strengthening tape at the joint. Any evidence of such modification may result in invalidation of the Zytronic warranty.
