The period of guarantee begins on the date of transfer of risks, in the case of special systems and software on the date of commissioning,
at latest 30 days after the transfer of risks. In the event of justified notice of complaint, Barco can repair the fault or provide a replacement
at its own discretion within an appropriate period. If this measure proves to be impossible or unsuccessful, the purchaser can demand a
reduction in the purchase price or cancellation of the contract. All other claims, in particular those relating to compensation for direct or
indirect damage, and also damage attributed to the operation of software as well as to other services provided by Barco, being a component

1. Safety
1.1 Servicing safety instructions
WARNING:Servicingmustbedonebyauthorizedandqualified technical personnel only, which are thor-
oughly familiar with the product and all of the proper safety checks of this product.
Personal protection
WARNING:Ensure you understand and follow all the safety guidelines, safety instructions, warnings and
cautions mentioned in this manual.
WARNING:Be aware of suspended loads.
WARNING:Wear a hard hat to reduce the risk of personal injury.
WARNING:Be careful while working with heavy loads.
WARNING:Mind your fingers while working with heavy loads.
Safety precautions:
• Follow all servicing and safety instructions mentioned in the servicing procedures.
• Unplug the tile AC power cord from the AC power source and wait about 10 minutes before start any servicing to the tile. This
to allow the capacitors to discharge.
• Some boards contains electrostatically sensitive devices (ESD). Take the necessary precautions to prevent the incidence of
component damage caused by static electricity.
• Do not modify and/or replicate any component. Barco uses specific materials and manufacturing processes in order to achieve
part strength. No other parts then Barco parts are allowed.
Additional on-site servicing safety precautions:
• Fence off a restricted area of at least 3 meters around the LED-wall using an eye-catching fence and “KEEP OUT” signs. This
to prevent unauthorized persons coming near the LED-wall during servicing.
• Inspect the complete LED-wall for security, wear, deformation, corrosion, and any other circumstances that may effect the load
handling capability of the part.
• Both hands must be free for servicing TF-20 tiles in a LED-wall. Therefore the use of a ladder to access a tile is forbidden. Only
the use of a scaffold or a Z-lift is allowed.
• Do not use the stacker system of the LED-wall to climb into the TF-20 display. Always use a scaffold or Z-lift to perform any
servicing or repairing to the display.
• In case of removing an TF-20 LED module out of a tile, ensure the module is secured with a safety cable to the LED-wall
structure.
• Take the necessary precautions to prevent water intrusion inside the TF-20 tile due to weather conditions.

2. General information
2.1 Service overview
Front and back access
A TF-20 display can consist of two different types of tiles. Each type of tile can have front or back access for service reasons.
Front access Back access
3x1 tile Illustration 1 Illustration 2
3x2 tile Illustration 3 Illustration 4
•Front access:
Front access means that service on the TF-20 tile happens from the front side of the tile. To access the components inside the
tile, several or all frames have to be removed.
•Back access:
Back access means that service on the TF-20 tile happens from the back side of the tile. To access the components inside the
tile, one or two doors are provided which can easily be opened using a quick lock.
