Safety Information

PS5580 Installation Guide 2

Safety Information

This display was designed with safety in mind. If you don’t heed the safety warnings

and cautions, you could get hurt. The safety warnings are on stickers in various places

in and on the display.

1Read these instructions.

2Keep these instructions.

3Heed all warnings.

4Follow all instructions.

5Do not use any of the Planar PS5580 products near water.

6Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or

other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

7Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A

polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding

type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the

third prong is provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit

into your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete

outlet.

8Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,

convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from any of the Planar

PS5580 products.

9Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

10 Unplug all Planar PS5580 products during lightning storms or when unused

for long periods of time.

11 You must follow all National Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware

of local codes and ordinances when installing your system.

12 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when

any of the Planar PS5580 displays have been damaged in any way, such as the

AC power cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have

fallen into the display, or if the displays have been exposed to rain or

moisture, do not operate normally or have been dropped.

13 Keep the packing material in case the equipment should ever need to be

shipped.

14 Wall mounts must be secure. The wall must be strong enough to hold all

displays, mounts, brackets and cables.

15 Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure

will cause permanent damage. Planar PS5580 configurations should be

mounted in a way that viewers cannot insert small objects in the openings

that will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.

Environmental Conditions for Installation

PS5580 Installation Guide 4

Environmental Conditions for Installation

• Since the PS5580 panel is very sensitive to physical impact, installation requires

considerable caution

• Minimum clearance (20 mm) must be observed—top, bottom, and both

sides—for proper ventilation. Installation must avoid air-tight or nearly air-tight

places. Improper ventilation causes malfunction and shortens product life by a

rapid internal temperature rise. If the PS5580 must be installed with improper

ventilation, additional ventilation openings or fans must be provided to keep

the internal temperature between 0°-35°C (32°-95°F).

• For grounding the PS5580 and attached devices, it should be connected as a

frame ground.

• Considering the PS5580 max power consumption, check the main electrical

specification.

• Regularly clean the vent holes in the back of the PS5580 to prevent

overheating.

Recommended Operating Conditions

• Temperature: 5-35°C (41-95°F)

• Humidity 35-75%

• Do not install the set it an air-tight condition; provide adequate ventilation.

• Do not install the set in a place of direct sunlight or excessive exposure to lights.

WARNING Blackening, stains or burning effect on the screen may occur through

improper installation or use outside these recommended conditions.

Burn-In Versus Temporary Image Retention

Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way

to correct the problem. Under normal use, an LCD module will not experience burn-

in, as plasma displays do, nor will it retain images in any way.

Normal use of an LCD module is defined as displaying continuously changing video

patterns or images. However, LCD modules can experience temporary image

retention when recommended usage guidelines are not followed.

What is Temporary Image Retention?

Temporary image retention (TIR) can occur when a static image is displayed

continuously for extended periods of time. An electrical charge differential may build

up between the electrodes of the liquid crystal, which causes a negative-color video

image (color-inverted and brightness-inverted version of the previous image) to be

retained when a new image is displayed. This behavior is true for any LCD device

from any LCD manufacturer.

TIR is not covered under warranty. See standard warranty terms and conditions for

details. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid TIR:

• Use the LCD module to show a screen saver, moving images or still pictures that

change regularly. When using high-contrast images, reposition the images

frequently.

• Turn off the PS5580 when it is not in use.

Normal Use Thermal Guidelines

Normal use of the LCD module and power supply module are defined as operating in

the open air to prevent heat buildup, and without direct or indirect heat sources such

as lighting fixtures, heating ducts, or direct sunlight that can cause the modules to

experience high operating temperatures. For all modules, do not block fans or

ventilation openings. If the LCD module will be installed in a recessed area with an

LCD surround or enclosure, ensure adequate openings are applied for proper air flow

and ventilation.

At 2000 meters altitude or below, the maximum ambient operating temperature for

the LCD module cannot be above 104º F (40º C) nor below the minimum ambient

operating temperature of (32º F) 0º C. If one of these conditions exists, it is up to the

installer to ensure that module placement is changed, thermal shielding is provided

and/or additional ventilation is provided to keep the display within its nominal

operating parameters.
