•Check the appearance of the unit when it is unpacked. Do not use the unit if any damage or deformation is
found. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage or malfunction.
•For use in a facility or for a system related to nuclear energy, aerospace, medical, traffic equipment, or
mobile installations, please consult your local distributor.
•Operate (or store) the TS series under the conditions indicated in this manual and related manuals. Failure
to do so could cause fire, malfunction, physical damage or deterioration.
•Understand the following environmental limits for use and storage of MONITOUCH. Otherwise, fire or
damage to the unit may result.
- Avoid locations where there is a possibility that water, corrosive gas, flammable gas, solvents, grinding
fluids or cutting oil can come into contact with the unit.
- Avoid high temperature, high humidity, and outside weather conditions, such as wind, rain or direct
sunlight.
- Avoid locations where excessive dust, salt, and metallic particles are present.
- Avoid installing the unit in a location where vibration or physical shock may be transmitted.
•Equipment must be correctly mounted so that the main terminal of the TS series will not be touched
inadvertently. Otherwise, an accident or electric shock may occur.
•Check periodically that terminal screws on the power supply terminal block and nuts are firmly tightened.
Loosened screws or nuts may result in fire or malfunction.
•Tighten terminal screws on the power supply terminal block equally to a torque of 0.5 to 0.6 N•m (5 to
6 kgf•cm). Improper tightening of screws may result in fire, malfunction, or other serious trouble.
•Tighten the nuts on the TS series equally to the specified torque. Excessive tightening may distort the panel
surface. Loose tightening may cause the unit to come off, malfunction or be short-circuited.
•The TS series has a glass screen. Do not drop or give physical shock to the unit. Otherwise, the screen
may be damaged.
•Connect the cables correctly to the terminals of the TS series in accordance with the specified voltage and
wattage. Over-voltage, over-wattage, or incorrect cable connection could cause fire, malfunction or damage
to the unit.
•Be sure to establish a ground of the TS series. The FG terminal must be used exclusively for the unit with
the level of grounding resistance less than 100 Ω. Otherwise, electric shock or a fire may occur.
•Prevent any conductive particles from entering into the TS series. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage,
or malfunction.
•Do not attempt to repair the TS series at your site. Ask Hakko Electronics or the designated contractor for
repair.
•Do not repair, disassemble or modify the TS series. Hakko Electronics Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any
damages resulting from repair, disassembly or modification of the unit that was performed by an
unauthorized person.
•Do not use a sharp-pointed tool when pressing a touch switch. Doing so may damage the screen.
•Only experts are authorized to set up the unit, connect the cables or perform maintenance and inspection.
•Lithium batteries contain combustible material such as lithium or organic solvents. Mishandling may cause
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 may 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 the TS series 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, the TS series must be treated as industrial waste.
•Before touching the TS series, discharge static electricity from your body by touching grounded metal.
Excessive static electricity may cause malfunction or trouble.
