Removing the Rear Case
Disassembly usually starts with removal of the back case. For assistance with
disassembly, consult your manufacturer's service manual.
To remove the rear case:
• Carefully lay the display on its face on the padded work surface and remove
the screws that attach the rear case to the bezel or frame.
• Slowly pull the rear case upward.
• Disconnect any cabling that may be attached to the rear case
• While removing the rear case, note the clearance between the inside rear
surface of the case and any of the monitor’s circuitry. If there is not enough
clearance to move this circuitry about.25 inch (6 mm) toward the rear of the
case, you may be unable to successfully install a touchscreen on the display
and completely reinstall the back case. Contact Elo Applications Engineering
(1-800-557-1458 x6) for possible alternatives.
Removing the LCD
1 Continue disassembling the display until the face of the LCD is completely
exposed. The degree of disassembly required will vary from display to
display.
2 The next step will be to remove the LCD from the display’s housing. Several
cables may have to be unplugged from the LCD before it can be removed.
Typically these cables are:
• The input video connector. A multi-conductor cable that is attached to the
rear of the LCD panel.
• The back-lamp cables. One or two cables connected to the rear of the
panel. These cables originate from the high voltage inverter.
• Various cables connected to the power switch, pilot light, front panel
controls, etc. Other cables may have to be unplugged from the electronics
chassis. The need for this may not be apparent until the chassis is removed,
as instructed below. As you pull the LCD out of the frame, make sure to
watch for other cables that need to be disconnected. After removal, set the
LCD face up on a padded, static free work surface.
