Temperature Control - Elo TouchSystems ET7001LT User Manual

Temperature Control

The IDS 01 Series monitors contain a temperature sensor that provides the user with real-time
temperature readings. This reading can be found on the OSD menu by clicking on: Other Menu
► Information ► System Temperature. If the monitor senses temperatures higher than the
operating range, the monitor will go into "Thermal Protection Mode." This mode allows the
monitor to remain operational during brief periods of use outside of its operating range.
Example of OSD showing the Video Board Temperature
In Thermal Protection Mode, the monitor will reduce the backlight brightness to bring the
internal temperature back within operating range. While in this mode, brightness cannot be
increased. If the internal temperature decreases below the Thermal Protection Mode
temperature for at least five minutes, normal operation is resumed. The OSD temperature at
which the monitor will enter the Thermal Protection Mode is in the table below.
When the Thermal Protection Mode is enabled, the following icon will appear in the Main Menu
and the Brightness Menu. This will indicate that the Thermal Protection Mode is active.
