5. Handling Notes  
5-1. Precautions  
§ This product is intended for use in standard applications (computers, office automation, and other office  
equipment, industrial, communications, and measurement equipment, personal and household devices,  
etc.) Please avoid using this product for special applications where failure or abnormal operation may  
directly affect human lives, or cause physical injury or property damage, or where extremely high levels  
of reliability are required (such as aerospace systems, vehicle operating control, atomic energy controls,  
medical devices for life support, etc.).  
5-2. Handling Notes  
§ Do not depress or scratch the product with any object with a sharp edge or end.  
§ Do not forcibly bend or fold the product.  
§ When the product is stored, make sure it is packed in a packing box and stored in a storage temperature  
range, eliminating any outside load.  
§ Do not use or store the product under a condition where the product will be exposed to water, organic  
solution or acid.  
§ Do not use the product under the direct sunlight.  
§ Do not disassemble the product.  
§ When you handle the product, Hold the product by its body. Do not hold by the tail.  
§ Clean the product with a soft cloth or a soft cloth with neutral detergent or alcohol. When contaminated  
by chemicals, wipe them off immediately with caution not to cause injury to human body.  
§ The edge of the glass is not rounded and may cause injury.  
5-3. Construction Notes  
§ The environmental specifications, mechanical characteristics, and electrical characteristics are only  
applied to the Active Area.  
§ Do not use the touchscreen when the condensation occurs. The condensation inside of the touchscreen  
is a natural phenomenon and should disappear after the touchscreen is warmed up.  
5-4. Electrical & Software Notice  
The best performance can be obtained when used with the original 5 wire analog resistive touchscreen  
controller, “TSC-20” Series. If the touchscreen controller or controller software is to be developed by the  
customer, please note the following:  
§ There is a contact resistance between the top and bottom electrodes and it changes by the pressure of a  
finger or a pen. The data must be read after the contact resistance becomes stabilized.  
§ The terminal resistance of the 5 wire analog resistive touchscreen varies by the individual, time, and  
environment. The controller software must have the calibration function to adjust the input position and  
the display position.  
§ The 5 wire analog resistive touchscreen outputs 2 point input as 1 point in between the 2 points. The  
controller software must not be designed to have the 2 point input function.  
§ For drawing applications, the line may be intermittent when the pen comes on the dot spacers. A  
software compensation is needed.

5-5. Mounting Notes  
§ Gap between the Bezel and Touchscreen  
Bezel  
A gap of approximately 0.5mm is needed between the bezel  
and the top electrode. It may cause unexpected input if the  
gap is too narrow.  
Top Electrode  
§ Cushion  
If a cushion is used between the bezel and the top electrode,  
the cushion must be free enough to absorb the expansion and  
contraction difference between the bezel and the top  
electrode. If the cushion is squashed too hard, the expansion  
and the contraction difference may cause the distortion to the  
top electrode.  
Bezel  
Cushion  
Top Electrode  
Insulation Area  
The cushion must be positioned within the insulation area.  
§ Tolerance  
There is a tolerance of 0.2 to 0.3mm for the dimensions of the  
touchscreen and the tail. A gap must be made to absorb the  
tolerance in the case and the connector.  
0.2 - 0.3mm  
Case  
§ Tail  
The tail must not be forcibly stressed or bent too hard to avoid  
the conduction in the insulated area and wire breaking.  
Tail  
Bezel  
§ Mounting  
Touchscreen must be held from the bottom such as the  
structure gluing the touchscreen onto the display. If the  
touchscreen is glued to the bezel, the adhesion between the  
top and bottom electrode is stressed and may come off.  
Display  
§ Forbidden Area  
Bezel  
The area within 2mm from the insulation area is structurally  
week for the pressure, espcially for pen use. The film may be  
forcibly bent and may cause defection. This area must be  
protected by the bezel and input must be avoided.  
§ Air Vent  
Forbidden Area  
Most of the touchscreens have the air vent to equalize the  
inside air pressure to the outside one. The air vent must be  
open and liquid contact must be avoided as the liquid may be  
absorbed if the lquid is accumilated near the air vent. The top  
electlode must not be swelled by the air pressure from inside  
of the case.

6. Warranty  
6-1. Warranty Period  
§ The warranty period is limited to 3 years from the date of shipping. The warranty for the initial defection  
such as appearance defection is limited to 1 month.  
§ Any defected parts under proper use will be examined by the supplier and replaced by the new parts if  
the defection is considered to be caused by the supplier.  
§ The replacement is subject to be included in the next lot.  
6-2. Warranty Target  
§ The warranty only covers the product itself and does not cover any damage to others caused by using  
this product. Onsite repair or replacement is not supported.  
§ We will do our best for delivery problem and product defections, but the warranty for the production line  
is not covered.  
§ Resistive touchscreens are structurally not repairable. All defections are subject to replacement.  
6-3. Warranty Exceptions  
Following conditions are not covered with the warranty and subject to charge.  
§ Any malfunctions and damages during transportation and transfer by the user.  
§ Any malfunctions and damages caused by a natural disaster or a fire.  
§ Any malfunctions and damages caused by static electricity  
§ Any malfunctions and damages caused by the failure of the associated equipment.  
§ If the product is remodeled, disassembled or repaired by the user.  
§ If the product is glued onto the equipment and uninstalled.  
§ Any malfunctions and damages caused by an improper usage and handling against the specifications  
and notes.  
6-4. Tools  
§ To maintain the quality, the printing screens and the die-cut plates are generally limited to use up to 1  
year. Reorders after 1 year from the initial order or from the last renewal are subject to the tooling charge  
for replacing the printing screens and the die-cut plates. Reorders for the discontinued standard parts are  
also subject to tooling charge.  
§ All the tools, such as CAD data (except for the drawing for approval), block copies (films), printing  
screens, and die-cut plates are not to be provided for administrative purpose.  
6-5. Changes  
§ Because of the manufacturing process, changing the dimensions, circuit pattern, and the tail position  
requires replacing most of the tools and is subject to high tooling charge. Please be careful when  
ordering and approving the drawing.  
§ Circuit pattern and the materials that does not affect the environmental, electrical, and mechanical  
characteristics such as film, glass, ink and glue are subject to change for the supplier’s reason or for  
improvement within the specifications.  
§ Standard products are subject to change for improvement without notice.
