Date : 2007/12/5 AMPIRE CO., LTD. 20 10 USE PRECAUTIONS 10.1 Handling precautions (1) An LCD module is a fragile item and should not be subjected to strong mechanical shocks. (2) Avoid applying pressure to the module surface. This will distort the glass and cause a change in color. (3) Under no circumstances should the position of the bezel tabs or their shape be modified. (4) Do not modify the display PCB in either shape or positioning of components. (5) Do not modify or move location of the zebra or heat seal connectors. (6) The device should only be soldered to during interfacing. Modification to other areas of the board should not be carried out. (7) In the event of LCD breakage and resultant leakage of fluid do not inhale, ingest or make contact with the skin. If contact is made rinse immediately. (8) When cleaning the module use a soft damp cloth with a mild solvent, such as Isopropyl or Ethyl alcohol. The use of water, ketone or aromatic is not permitted. (9) Prior to initial power up input signals should not be applied. (10) Protect the module against static electricity and observe appropriate anti-static precautions. 10.2 Installing precautions 1) The PCB has many ICs that may be damaged easily by static electricity. To prevent breaking by static electricity from the human body and clothing, earth the human body properly using the high resistance and discharge static electricity during the operation. In this case, however, the resistance value should be approx. 1MΩ and the resistance should be placed near the human body rather than the ground surface. When the indoor space is dry, static electricity may occur easily so be careful. We recommend the indoor space should be kept with humidity of 60% or more. When a soldering iron or other similar tool is used for assembly, be sure to earth it. 2) When installing the module and ICs, do not bend or twist them. Failure to do so may crack LC element and cause circuit failure. 3) To protect LC element, especially polarizing plate, use a transparent protective plate (e.g., acrylic plate, glass etc) for the product case. Date : 2007/12/5 AMPIRE CO., LTD. 21 4) Do not use an adhesive like a both-side adhesive tape to make LCD surface (polarizing plate) and product case stick together. Failure to do so may cause the polarizing plate to peel off. 10.3 Storage precautions 1) Avoid a high temperature and humidity area. Keep the temperature between 0°C and 35°C and also the humidity under 60%. 2) Choose the dark spaces where the product is not exposed to direct sunlight or fluorescent light. 3) Store the products as they are put in the boxes provided from us or in the same conditions as we recommend. 10.4 Operating precautions 1) Do not boost the applied drive voltage abnormally. Failure to do so may break ICs. When applying power voltage, check the electrical features beforehand and be careful. Always turn off the power to the LC module controller before removing or inserting the LC module input connector. If the input connector is removed or inserted while the power is turned on, the LC module internal circuit may break. 2) The display response may be late if the operating temperature is under the normal standard, and the display may be out of order if it is above the normal standard. But this is not a failure; this will be restored if it is within the normal standard. 3) The LCD contrast varies depending on the visual angle, ambient temperature, power voltage etc. Obtain the optimum contrast by adjusting the LC dive voltage. 4) When carrying out the test, do not take the module out of the low-temperature space suddenly. Failure to do so will cause the module condensing, leading to malfunctions. 5) Make certain that each signal noise level is within the standard (L level: 0.2Vdd or less and H level: 0.8Vdd or more) even if the module has functioned properly. If it is beyond the standard, the module may often malfunction. In addition, always connect the module when making noise level measurements. 6) The CMOS ICs are incorporated in the module and the pull-up and pull-down function is not adopted for the input so avoid putting the input signal open while the power is ON. 7) The characteristic of the semiconductor element changes when it is exposed to light emissions, therefore ICs on the LCD may malfunction if they receive Date : 2007/12/5 AMPIRE CO., LTD. 22 light emissions. To prevent these malfunctions, design and assemble ICs so that they are shielded from light emissions. 8) Crosstalk occurs because of characteristics of the LCD. In general, crosstalk occurs when the regularized display is maintained. Also, crosstalk is affected by the LC drive voltage. Design the contents of the display, considering crosstalk. 10.5 Other 1) Do not disassemble or take the LC module into pieces. The LC modules once disassembled or taken into pieces are not the guarantee articles. 2) The residual image may exist if the same display pattern is shown for hours. This residual image, however, disappears when another display pattern is shown or the drive is interrupted and left for a while. But this is not a problem on reliability. 3) AMIPRE will provide one year warrantee for all products and three months warrantee for all repairing products.
