About the Backlight
GP units use a CFL, long-life type backlight. In a real world situation, the backlight may need to be replaced
depending on the GP’s operating environment. It is recommended that it be replaced periodically.
A backlight life refer to “„Display Specifications (page 4-65)”, when the backlight is lit continuously (time
required for brightness to fall to half its normal level.)
„Procedure for replacing the backlight
(1) Unplug the power cord from the main power supply.
• Here is the procedure for replacing the backlight only for AGP-3600T/3650T which is NOT
marked on GP Rev. 5.
[Electric shock]
• Whenever changing the backlight, be sure the GP’s power cord has been disconnected and that
the unit is cooled down.
• When the GP’s power cord is connected and the GP is ON, high voltage runs through the wires
in the backlight area do not touch them!
[Burn]
• When the GP’s power has just been turned OFF, the backlight area is still very hot! Be sure to
wear gloves to prevent being burned.
[Glass]
• The backlight is very fragile. Do not touch the glass tube directly or try to remove its power cord.
If the glass tube breaks you may be injured.
• Remove the GP unit from the equipment to which the unit has been incorporated,
and work with the GP unit with the display surface facing downward. Be sure to
perform the backlight changeover on a flat, level surface. This will prevent damage to
the GP unit and the accidental cutting of any of its power cord.
• Be sure to protect the display surface to prevent damage during the operations.
