Precautions before Use

Installation Environment

Avoid installing the LightPixAE20 in the following locations:
Locations with direct sunlight or environmental temperatures exceeding a range of 0ºC to +40ºC.
Locations with a relative humidity exceeding a range of 35%RH to 85%RH (without dew condensation
at 25ºC)
Locations with a lot of fine particles, iron filings, salt, oily smoke or conductive dusts.
Locations with an atmosphere containing corrosive gases or flammable gases.
Locations where the product can contact oil or chemicals.
Locations near organic solvents (such as benzene, paint thinner, and alcohol) or strongly alkaline
materials (such as ammonia and caustic soda)
Locations within 100mm of high-voltage wires (or devices), power-driven lines (or devices), radios,
transmitters and devices generating large switching surge (be sure to keep more than 100mm space
between the LightPixAE20 and these devices)

Power Supply

Take care not to generate excessive static electricity from the LightPixAE20.
When supplying power to the LightPixAE20, do not commonly use the power source for powering the
device and be sure to install a protection circuit such as a fuse.
Use an insulated power supply unit with a built-in protection circuit. The LightPixAE20 power supply
unit is a non-insulated circuit. Therefore, applying an abnormal voltage might damage the internal
circuit. If you use a power supply unit without a protection circuit, supply power through a protective
device such as a fuse.
About grounding
Do not commonly use the ground with other devices.
Grounding should be as close as the main unit as possible, and keep the distance short.
Noise Countermeasure
Do not bundle the optional cable connecting between the main unit and the operation unit, and input
/output signal cables connecting to the main unit together with motor or power cables. Ensure that they
are at least 100m apart. Keep the signal cables as short as possible.
If the external devices connected to the main unit are connected with directive conduction load (a motor
or relay), equip noise absorption elements such as noise killers at the load side.
Lighting equipment for image process generates signal of extremely high noise level due to high
frequency lighting. If you use external lighting, arrange the wiring of power transmission and signal
cables carefully.
Before Turning on the LightPixAE20
Pay attentions to the followings when turning on the LightPixAE20 for the first time;
Confirm no wiring waste or especially any conductive substance coming from installation is on the
printed circuit board
Confirm that the power voltage, power wiring and input/output wiring is correct.
Confirm that the fixing and terminal screws are securely tightened.
Do not turn the LightPixAE20 on within 10 minutes after turning the main unit off. This may result in
malfunction.
