If you determine that your LCD Panel is malfunctioning, 

do not attempt to 

alter or repair the unit.

It contains no user-serviceable parts. Contact Black Box.

Before you do, make a record of the history of the problem. Black Box 

will be able to provide more efficient and accurate assistance if you have a
complete description, including:

• the nature and duration of the problem.

• when the problem occurs.

• the components involved in the problem.

• any particular application that, when used, appears to create the problem

or make it worse.

6.3 Shipping and Packaging

If you need to transport or ship your LCD Panel:

• Package it carefully. We recommend that you use the original container.

• If you are shipping the LCD Panel for repair, make sure you include its

power supply. If you are returning the LCD Panel, make sure you include
this manual as well. Before you ship, contact Black Box to get a Return
