Warnings
Warning！
Warnings for Design
D esigning switches that might cause human injuries and/or property damages on the touchscreen is strictly
prohibited.
Unintentional output signals due to malfunction of the main body, units, and/or cables, etc. can cause serious
injuries. Please design the system so that switches with major functions are equipped on device other than the
EMP.
Designing equipment safety related switches on the touchscreen is prohibited
For safety related switches, such as emergency stop switches, use a hardware switch from a different system.
Design the system so that the machine will not malfunction due to communication abnormalities between the
EMP and the host controller.
Failure to do so may result in injuries to the human body or property damages.
Do not use EMP as a major warning system that may cause injuries/ serious property damages, and or production
stoppage. Control devices related to critical warning displays and warnings should be structured by an
independent, redundant hardware system or a mechanical interlock.
EMP is not intended for use for aircraft equipment, aerospace instruments, trunk line communication equipment,
nuclear power control equipment, and medical equipment that concerns life support, and or other equipment that
concerns high reliability and safety. It cannot be used for these purposes.
When using the EMP for purposes that concern high reliability and safety functions and accuracy such as
transport equipment (trains, automobiles, ship, etc.), crime/disaster prevention devices, various safety devices,
and medical equipment that does not concern life support, be sure to have safety features including redundancy
and false operation prevention measures incorporated into the entire system.
Display will black out when the backlight goes out. If mistakenly operated in this condition, it might result in
improper operation. Do not design touch-switches that might cause human injuries and property damages on the
EMP.
Following phenomenon as below will occur when the backlights go out:
(1) Display will go out even if the Backlight OFF function is not set.
(2) Display does not recover at touch after the backlight goes off while the Backlight OFF function is set.
Warnings for Handling
Do not modify/disassemble the EMP. Doing so may cause fire and/or electric shocks.
Do not use around flammable gas. Doing so may cause explosions.
Do not put any kind of liquid, such as water, or metal into the product. Doing so may cause fire and/or electric
shocks.

20A4A4-00002E-1
Warnings for Wiring
For wiring and installation, please refer to the manual and specifications in order to conduct it correctly. Failure
to do so may cause fires and/or electric shocks.
Before installing the power cable, make sure power is not being supplied from power source. Failure to do so
may cause electrical shocks.
Do not use power voltage other than the voltage specified. Doing so may cause fire and/or electric shocks.
Warnings for When Turning the Power ON and During Maintenance
Do not connect/disconnect the communication cable with the host while the power is ON.
Cautions
Cautions!
Cautions for Installation
Make sure cables are securely connected to connectors to avoid incorrect input and output due to loose
connection.
Cautions for Wiring
Make sure foreign objects such as chips and scraps do not enter the EMP. Failure to do so may cause fires,
damages, and/or malfunctions.
Cautions for Disposal
When disposing the product, please treat it is as industrial waste.

To Avoid Malfunctions
Do not press down hard on the display area of the EMP with hard objects. Doing so may break the touchscreen
LCD panel and may cause injuries. Also, do not press down on the panel with sharp objects such as mechanical
pencils and drivers. Doing so may cause damages.
Installing the EMP in areas outside the range of the specified temperature may cause failures.
Avoid using in areas where temperature may build up rapidly. Failure to do so may cause failures.
Avoid using in areas where rapid temperature change could cause condensation. Failure to do so may cause
failures.
Do not put water, any kind of liquid, and conductive objects such as metal parts, inside the EMP. Doing so may
cause failures or electric shocks.
Do not use or keep EMP in locations with exposure to direct sunlight, high temperatures, fine particles, humidity,
and /or vibration.
Avoid using and storing in areas where chemicals are vaporized and emanating in the air, or in places where
chemicals can adhere to the product.
Acids, Alkalis, and other saline chemicals: May cause failures due to corrosion.
Organic solvents: May cause fires.
If the surface of EMP gets dirty, wipe with a dry, soft cloth damped with a neutral detergent then wrung dry. Do
not wipe with thinner or organic solvents.
T he liquid crystal in the display will deteriorate by ultraviolet rays. Do not use or keep in areas with strong
ultraviolet rays.
When stored in sub-ambient storage temperature, the liquid crystal in the display may coagulate and damage
the panel. If stored in over-ambient storage temperature, the liquid crystal will turn isotropic liquid and will not turn
back to its original state. Please store in the specified ambient temperature range.
After turning off the power of EMP, leave it off for a while before turning the power back on. It may not function
normally if failed to do so.
Be sure to take back-up of the data in the EMP assuming the loss of data in an event of an unexpected accident.

Handling of LCD Panels
1) The LCD contains skin-irritating materials. If liquid materials flow or spill out due to damages and comes in contact
with the skin, immediately wash the area under running water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.
2) The LCD might have uneven brightness according to the contents being displayed. Please note that this is not a
malfunction.
3) Minute spots (black or bright) may occur in the LCD elements. Please note that this is a basic characteristic of
LCD and not a malfunction.
4) When the display of the LCD is viewed from outside the specified viewing angle, the displayed color might seem
different. Please note that this a basic characteristic of the LCD.
5) When a same image is displayed for a long period of time, it may remain as an afterimage. Please note that this
is a basic characteristic of the LCD.
To avoid afterimages, follow the below procedures:
1. When leaving the same image displayed, use the “Display OFF” function.
2. Change the image displayed periodically and do not display the same image for a long period of time.
Handling of Touchscreens
1) Please be warned that applications that require for one point to be pressed for a prolonged time may cause
failures due to the touchscreen s structural characteristics.
2) The touchscreen is made of glass. Glass breaks easily if scratched. Please handle with care and avoid glass from
coming in contact each other and hard objects.
3) Due to the characteristics of the touchscreen, touching slightly outside the display area may be detected as the
coordinates of the edge of the touchscreen. Please consider the above when designing the application.
4) Touchscreen coordinates may shift due to aging or depending on its operating environment. If the touchscreen
coordinate shifts, conduct calibration of the touchscreen to correctly set the coordinates.
5) Please be careful when handling the glass. The glasses are not chamfered and can easily cause injuries.
