IPC-PT/MV10 / IPC-PT/LS10 / HPC-HMV10 / HPC-HLS10 Hardware Manual 3
Handling Precautions
Take the following precautions when handling this product.
- Do not use or store the product in a location such as extremely high or low temperature, rapid
temperature changes, and the place which receives a strong ultraviolet ray.
Example: - Exposure to direct sun
- In the vicinity of a heat source
- Do not use the product in extremely humid or dusty locations.
It is extremely dangerous to use the product with its interior penetrated by water or any other fluid
or conductive dust. If the product must be used in such an environment, install it on a dust-proof
control panel, for example.
- Avoid using or storing the device in locations subject to shock or vibration.
- Do not use the product in the vicinity of devices that generate strong magnetic force or noise.
Such devices will cause this device to malfunction.
- Do not use or store the product in the presence of chemicals.
- To clean the PANECON-PC, wipe it gently with a soft cloth dampened with either water or mild
detergent. Do not use chemicals or a volatile solvent, such as benzene or thinner, to prevent
pealing or discoloration of the paint.
- Do not use any sharp-pointed object such as a mechanical pencil to touch the touch panel. Doing
so may scratch the touch panel, resulting in malfunctions.
- Do not subject the touch panel to shock as doing so may break it.
- When the surface or frame of the touch panel has become dirty, wipe it with neutral detergent. Do
not wipe the touch panel with thinner, alcohol, ammonia, or a strong chlorinated solvent. Use a
protective sheet (available as an option) if the touch panel is used where it can easily collect dust
and dirt.
- Burn-in on TFT Display
"Burn-in" may occur if the same display is retained for a long time. Avoid this by periodically
switching the display so that the same display is not maintained for a long time.
* Burn-In: Phenomenon characterized by a TFT display as a result of long-time display of the
same screen where a shadow-like trace persists because electric charge remains in the
LCD element even after the patterns are changed.
- It is a characteristic of analog touch panels that their resistance may vary with changes to the
ambient environment (temperature and humidity) and with their own aging, resulting in the
deviation of the detection point. If this is the case, calibrate the touch panel again to re-set
calibration data.
- Life expectancy of components
(1)Battery: A lithium-ion primary battery is used to back up the internal
clock/calendar and CMOS RAM. The non-energized backup time at
25°C is 10 years or more.

1. Introduction
4 IPC-PT/MV10 / IPC-PT/LS10 / HPC-HMV10 / HPC-HLS10 Hardware Manual
(2)LCD backlight: Display brightness decreases over time with use.
The operating lifetime of the backlight is as follows (the time until the
brightness is lowered to 50% of the initial value):
- IPC-PT/MV10, IPC-PT/LS10, HPC-HMV10, and HPC-HLS10
: 50,000 hours
(3)Touch panel: The operating lifetime of the touch panel is at least 1 million touches
(as tested by mechanical touching under 300 g of force at a rate of
two presses per second).
(4)AC power supply: The life expectancy of the AC power supply is about six years for
continuous operation of the unit (installed vertically) at 40 degrees
centigrade. Note, however, that it is shortened depending on the
operating temperature (when used at high temperatures).
(5)24VDC power supply : The life expectancy of the 24VDC power supply is about six years for
continuous operation of the unit (installed vertically) at 40 degrees
centigrade. Note, however, that it is shortened depending on the
operating temperature (when used at high temperatures).
(6) Flash memory (NFDISK): The number of times of rewriting has restriction that is 300,000.
Since CF-CARD is used for Flash memory (NFDISK), When use is
carried out for the use that rewrites frequently, be careful of the
number of times of rewriting.
* CONTEC accepts your request for replacing each consumable in the PANECON-PC as a request
for repair (at an additional cost).
- If installed horizontally (with the LCD panel face up), the unit should be used at an ambient
operating temperature of not greater than 30 degrees centigrade.
- Be sure to turn off the power before plugging or unplugging any expansion board or connector.
- CONTEC reserves the right to refuse to service a product modified by the user.
- In the event of failure or abnormality (foul smells or excessive heat generation), unplug the power
cord immediately and contact the sales representative you purchased the product from or the
CONTEC Information Center.

COM2 RS-422A/RS-485 data transmission mode setting
The data transmission mode setting switch (SW4) can be used to switch between half-duplex and
full-duplex and between RTS and CTS in full-duplex mode. Set the appropriate data transmission
mode depending on the remote device to which to connect this board.
Set the transmission mode using from the bit 6 to bit 8.

Description Only TxD is enabled as a
data line. The
transmission or reception
mode can be selected by
the RTS signal from this
board.
If the connected device has
no RTS and CTS signals, the
CTS signal becomes active by
making the RTS signal of
this board active.
Used with the unit connected
to the RTS and CTS signals
of the connected device
CAUTION
Do not set bits 7 and 8 of each switch to both ON. Doing so may cause the board to malfunction.
