heat, explosion or ignition resulting in fire or injury. Read related manuals carefully and handle the lithium
battery correctly as instructed.
•Do not press two or more positions on the screen at the same time. If two or more positions are pressed at
the same time, the switch located between the pressed positions will be activated.
•Take safety precautions during such operations as setting change during running, forced output, start, and
stop. Any misoperation may cause unexpected machine motions, resulting in machine accident or damage.
•In facilities where a failure of MONITOUCH could lead to accident threatening human life or other serious
damage, be sure that the facilities are equipped with adequate safeguards.
•At the time of disposal, MONITOUCH must be treated as industrial waste.
•Before touching MONITOUCH, discharge static electricity from your body by touching grounded metal.
Excessive static electricity may cause malfunction or trouble.
CAUTION

[General Notes]
•Never bundle control cables nor input/output cables with high-voltage and large-current carrying cables such
as power supply cables. Keep these cables at least 200 mm away from the high-voltage and large-current
carrying cables. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
•When using MONITOUCH in an environment where a source of high-frequency noise is present, it is
recommended that the FG shielded cable (communication cable) be grounded at its ends. However, the cable
may be grounded only at one end if this is necessary due to unstable communication conditions or for any
other reason.
•Plug connectors or sockets of MONITOUCH in the correct orientation. Failure to do so may lead to damage or
malfunction.
•Do not use thinners for cleaning because they may discolor MONITOUCH surface. Use alcohol or benzine
commercially available.
•If a data receive error occurs when MONITOUCH and the counterpart (PLC, temperature controller, etc.) are
started at the same time, read the manual for the counterpart unit and remove the error correctly.
•Avoid discharging static electricity on the mounting panel of MONITOUCH. Static charges can damage the
unit and cause malfunctions. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.
•Avoid prolonged display of any fixed pattern. Due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal display, an
afterimage may occur. If a prolonged display of a fixed pattern is expected, use the auto OFF function of the
backlight.
[Notes on LCD]
Note that the following conditions may occur under normal circumstances.
•The response time, brightness and colors of MONITOUCH may be affected by the ambient temperature.
•Tiny spots (dark or luminescent) may appear on the display due to the liquid crystal characteristics.
•There are variations in brightness and colors on each unit.
•For S808, cold cathode tubes are incorporated into the LCD display for backlights. Optical properties
(brightness, irregular colors, etc.) may change in a low-temperature environment or over time of operation.
