Life expectancy of components
(1)Battery: A lithium-ion primary battery is used to back up the internal clock/calendar and CMOS
RAM. The non-energized backup time at 25°C is 10 years or more.
(2)LCD backlight: Display brightness decreases over time with use.
The operating lifetime of the backlight is 50,000 hours (the time until the
brightness is lowered to 50% of the initial value)
(3)Touch panel:
The operating lifetime of the touch panel is at least 1 million touches (as tested
by mechanical touching under 300 g of force at a rate of two presses per
second).
(4)Flash memory (NFDISK): The number of times of rewriting has restriction that is more than
300,000. (When the write size is 128KB or less.)
Since CF-CARD is used for Flash memory (NFDISK), When use is
carried out for the use that rewrites frequently, be careful of the
number of times of rewriting.
Moreover, when power supply OFF is done while writing it, data in
flash memory (NFDISK) might be damaged.
* CONTEC accepts your request for replacing each consumable in the PANECON-PC as a request
for repair (at an additional cost).
