OPTICON User's manual PHL-7000 series    1-2 1.2 User and Product Safety •  Do not stare into the laser or LED beam directly or shine it into eyes.  •  Never use strong pressure onto the screen or subject it to severe impact, as the LCD panel could become cracked and possibility cause personal injury. If the LCD panel is broken, never touch the liquid inside because the liquid irritates the skin.  •  Although the PDT has passed the test of IP54 standard for water and dust resistance, avoid prolonged exposure to rain or other concentrated moisture. Such conditions exceeds the IP54 standard, and could result in water or other contaminants entering into the PDT.  • Use only the original  approved AC Adapter with the PDT. Use of an unapproved AC Adapter could result in electrical problems, or even cause a fire or electrical shock to the user.  • Do not disassemble the PDT. Servicing should be done by Opticon only. If the PDT or accessories gets damaged due to wrong handling or unauthorized repair, warranty is void. In case the warranty seals are broken, warranty is void too.  •  Make regularly back-ups of all important data.    •  Under no circumstance will Opticon be liable for any direct, indirect, consequential or incidential damages aring out of the use or inability to use both the hardware and software and/or any data loss, even if Opticon has been informed about the possibility of such damages.

Use the stylus to press and hold briefly on the center of each target as it moves around the screen.  If necessary, adjust the backlight on the PDT to make the screen readable (see chapter 2.4.4 Adjusting the brightness).  When you experience that the touch screen function is poor or the operation does not match the exact location it should be, please recalibrate the screen by using the stylus to tap the Start > Settings > Control Panel > Stylus, to open the “Calibration” to recalibrate again.
