ROUTING THE SENSOR FLEXIBLE CABLES

The following stages show an example of one possible integration scenario.

The flexible cables should initially be taped to the rear of the LCD at the edges, as shown in Figure 11.
A tape such as 3M 1350 or similar can be used. Any tape used must maintain its adhesion at any
temperature that it may be subjected to in service. Care should be taken to avoid the flexible cables
crossing over each other after fixing is complete.

INITIAL ROUTING OF FLEXI TAILS

The flexible cable bend radius at the sensor edge should be a minimum of 2.5mm, as shown
in Figure 12.

FLEXIBLE CABLE BENDING AT SENSOR EDGE

The flexible cables can then be creased to produce 90 degree bends. Creasing should be achieved by
applying pressure with finger tips only.

Once creased, they should not be repeatedly un-creased and

re-creased.

Additional tape should be used to hold the flexible cables in position, as shown in Figure 13.
