(2)Keep the gap, for example 0.3 to 0.7mm,between bezel edge and T/P surface. The reason is to avoid the bezel edge from contacting T/P surface that may cause a "short" with bottom layer(See Fig.2) (3)Insertion a cushion material is recommended. (4)The cushion material should be limited just on the busbar insulation paste area. If it is over the transparent insulation paste area, a "short" may be occurred. (5)There is one where a resistance film is left in the T/P part of the end of the pole. Design to keep insulation from the perimeter to prevent from mis-operation and so on. LD21508A17 12-3-2)Mounting on display and housing bezel (1)In all cases, the T/P should be supported from the backside of the glass. (2)Do not to use an adhensive-tape to bond it on the front of T/P and hang it to the housing bezel. (3)Never expand the T/P top layer(PET-film) like a balloon by internal air pressure. The life of the T/P will be extremely short. (4)Top layer, PET, dimension is changing with environmental temperature and humidity. Avoid a stress from housing bezel to top layer, because it may cause "waving". (5)The input to the Touchpanel sometimes distorts touch panel itself. Housing Cushion material (=Gascket Area) 0.3 0.7mm PET Film Insulation metal Transparent Insulation Paste Response Area Glass Prohibition Area Fig.2 Electrode Layer LD21508A18 (13)Handling Precautions a) Be sure to turn off the power supply when inserting or disconnecting the FPC. b) Please insert FPC in the connector carefully so that the tension should not hang. c) The FPC for LCD panel shall be bent only slit portion. The bending slit shall be bent uniformly on the whole slit portion with bending radius larger than 0.6mm ,and only inner side (back side of the module). Don't bend it outer side (display surface side). Do not give the FPCs too large force, for example, hanging the module with holding FPC. d) Be sure to design the cabinet so that the module can be installed without any extra stress such as warp or twist. e) Since the front polarizer is easily damaged, pay attention not to scratch it. Blow away dust on the polarizer with antistatic 2 blow. It is undesirable to wipe off because a polarizer is sensitive. It is recommended to peel off softly using the adhesive tape when soil or finger oil is stuck to the polarizer. When unavoidable, wipe off carefully with a cloth for wiping lenses. f) Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration or spots. g) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or other soft cloth. h) Since the panel is made of glass, it may break or crack if dropped or bumped on hard surface. Handle with care. i) Liquid crystal contained in the panel may leak if the LCD is broken. Rinse it as soon as possible if it gets inside your eye or mouth by mistake. j) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and injure the human earth when handling. Observe all other precautionary requirements in handling components. k) In case of attaching protective board over the LCD, be careful about the optical interface fringe etc. which degrades display quality. l) Do not expose the LCD panel to direct sunlight. Lightproof shade etc. should be attached when LCD panel is used under such environment. The panel characteristic might be deteriorated and the display fineness decrease when strong light is irradiated to the liquid crystal panel. m) When handling LCD modules and assembling them into cabinets, that long-terms storage in the environment of oxidization or deoxidization gas and the use of such materials as reagent, solvent, adhesive, resin, etc. which generate these gasses, causes corrosion and discoloration of the modules. Therefore, please avoid these use. Epoxy resin (amine series curing agent), silicone adhesive material (dealcoholization series and oxime series), tray forming agent (azo compound) etc, in the cabinet or the packing materials may induce abnormal display with polarizer film deterioration regardress of contact or noncontact to polarizer film. Be sure to confirm the component of them. n) If it is kept at a temperature below the rated storage temperature, it becomes coagulated and the panel may be broken. Also, if it is kept at a temperature above the rated storage temperature, it becomes isotropic liquid and does not return to its original state. Therefore, it is desirable to keep it at room temperature as much as possible. o) The LED used for this product is very sensitive to the temperature. Luminance decreases rapidly when it issued for a long time under the environment of the high temperature. Please consult our company when it is used under the environment like the above mentioned. p) Be careful when using it for long time with fixed pattern display as it may cause afterimage. (Please use a screen saver etc., in order to avoid an afterimage.) q) Notice:Never dismantle the module , because it will cause failure. Moreover, please do not peel off the tapes other than the creped paper tape (yellow tape) of a protection film pasted to the product. LD21508A19 r) If a minute particle enters in the module and adheres to an optical material, it may cause display nonuniformity issue, etc. Therefore, fine-pitch filters have to be installed to cooling and inhalation hole if you intend to install a fan. s) Observe general precautions for all electronic components. t) VCOM must be adjusted on condition of your final product. No adjustment causes the deterioration for display quality.
