LCD Usage and Handling
• The PS-A’s LCD contains a strong irritant. If the panel is ever cracked and the LCD’s liquid contacts your skin, be sure
to wash it with running water for at least 15 minutes. If any of this liquid should enter your eye, be sure to flush your
eye with running water for more than 15 minutes and see a doctor as soon as possible.
• The brightness of the LCD screen will depend on the screen's current display and the LCD’s contrast adjustment. Any
brightness variations that result are normal for LCD displays.
• There are minute grid-points (Dark or Light points) on the LCD surface. These points are not defects and are a part of
the PS-A unit's design.
• The displayed color will look different when viewed from an angle outside the specified view angle. This is also nor-
mal.
• When installing this unit, be sure that the screen is viewable from within the designated viewing angles. The screen
image being difficult to see from outside its recommended viewing angle is normal.
• Displaying a single screen image for long periods of time can cause an afterimage to remain on the screen. To correct
this, turn the unit OFF for 5 to 10 minutes, then ON again. This phenomenon is a common attribute of LCD displays,
and is not a defect. To prevent this effect, you can:
1) Use the Display OFF feature; if the same image is to be displayed for a long period of time.
2) Change the screen display periodically to prevent the displaying of a single image for a long period of time.
When PS-A Hard Disk (HDD) data is lost:
The Digital Electronics Corporation cannot be held responsible or provide any compensation for dam-
age(s) caused by the loss of data stored in the PS-A’s hard disk drive (HDD). It is therefore strongly sug-
gested that all important data and software be backed up regularly to an external data backup device.
Please be aware that the Digital Electronics Corporation bears no responsibility for any damages resulting
from the customer's application of this unit's hardware or software.
Since the PS-A unit’s hard disk drive (HDD) is a consumable item, i.e. it has a limited lifetime, be sure to
back up its data regularly and prepare a spare HDD unit.
In order to extend the lifetime of the hard disk, Pro-face recommends you set the Windows [Control
panel]-[Power Management option]-[Turn off hard disks] selection to turn the hard disk off when the unit is
not being operated. A setting of 5 minutes is recommended.
To prevent file data damage, be sure to shut down the PS-A's OS before turning OFF the main power.
WAfter turning OFF the PS-A’s power, wait until the internal HDD stops spinning before turning on the
power again (approx. 5 seconds).
