Liquid crystal displays
Due to the characteristics of LCD monitors, prolonged display of bright still images or prolonged operation in high-temperature or high-humidity environments may result in residual images, luminance reduction, burn-in, banding, or panel defects and degradation that result in areas of permanently changed brightness.
In particular, avoid prolonged continuous display of the following types of images.

• Bright still images
• Images that include logomarks or graphics in fixed positions
• Windows from a computer and similar bright displays
• Images with aspect ratios different from that of the monitor (e.g., letterboxed images)

In addition, avoid prolonged continuous use in the following types of environments.

• Confined areas with high temperature and humidity
• Near the exhaust vent of air conditioning equipment, etc.

Prolonged use involving the images and environments described above will accelerate deterioration of the LCD panel over time.
To prevent accelerated deterioration and its related phenomena, we recommend the following.

• Do not display bright still images for prolonged periods.
• Lower the brightness.
• Turn off the power when the monitor is not in use.
  Residual images will gradually disappear as different images are displayed.

• Various names, company names, product names, etc., described in this document are trademark or registered trademark of the respective companies.

Before using the camera

• LCD
  • The LCD monitor is manufactured with high-precision technology and has an effective pixel count of over 99.99%, but there are 0.01% of the pixels either missing or constantly lit (red, blue, green). This is normal and not a cause for concern.
  • The LCD protective panel is specially treated. Wiping it or rubbing it vigorously with a hard cloth may scratch or mark its surface.
  • The response rate and brightness of the LCD depend on the ambient temperature.
• Handling
  • Do not drop or apply excessive shock or vibration. Doing so may damage it.
• Operating temperature range
  • The picture quality may degrade or there may be adverse effect to internal components when used in locations as follows. Avoid using in such locations.
  Cold location that is 0 °C (32 °F) or lower.
  Hot location that is 45 °C (113 °F) or higher.
• Maintenance
  • Clean the cabinet and LCD protection panel by gently wiping them with a soft cloth.
  To remove stubborn soiling, use a cloth dampened in a weak neutral detergent solution and thoroughly wrung out. Then wipe with a dry cloth.
  Any moisture entering the monitor could damage it.
  •  Never use alcohol, thinner, or benzene to clean this unit.
  Doing so may discolor the surface or cause the paint to peel.
  • Do not directly expose the monitor to spray detergent. Any moisture entering the monitor could damage it.
• Connecting/disconnecting the connector
  •  Be sure to power down the device before connecting or disconnecting the connector.

Using the external DC power supply

• Connect the <DC IN> terminal of the unit with the external DC power supply.
• Turn on the <POWER> switch on the external DC power supply (when there is a <POWER> switch on the external DC power supply).
• Turn on the power of the unit.

• External DC power supply
Confirm that the output voltage of the external DC power supply is compatible with the rated voltage for this unit before connecting.
Select the output current of the external DC power supply that is above the total current of the connected device with sufficient allowance.
An inrush current is generated when the power of this unit is turned on. Insufficient power supply performance while turning on the power may cause failure. It is
recommended to use the external DC power supply that can secure double or more of the total power consumption of this unit. Use 2-wire shielded cable with
cable core of AWG18 (nominal cross-section area of 0.824 mm2) or higher as the DC cable.
• Confirm the pin assignments of the DC output terminal of the external DC power supply and the <DC IN> terminal of this unit, and connect with correct polarity.
Connecting +12 V power supply to the GND terminal by mistake may cause fire or failure.
