Replacing the Backlight
The GP2000H Series unit backlights are NOT user replaceable.
If backlight replacement is required, please contact your local distributor.
When the unit's backlight burns out, the unit's status LED will turn orange. If the
OFFLINE
is set to NO, the GP unit's touch panel will be disabled.
GP2000H Series units use a CFL, long-life type backlight. The actual life of the
backlight, however, depends on the GP unit's operating conditions, and replace-
ment may be required. A GP2000H Series backlight has a life of 50,000 hours
(approx. 5.7 years at 25° C and 24-hour operation) when the backlight is lit con-
tinuously. (The "life" of the backlight is the time it takes for the brightness to fall
to half its normal level.)
*1 If the OFFLINE menu's FORCE RESET feature is set to NO, the touch panel opera-
tion is disabled.
