PRODUCT MANUAL
SANTARO
1. Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing a SECO Northern Europe product. Our products are dedicated to professional
use and therefore we suppose extended technical knowledge and practice in working with such products.
The information in this manual is subject to technical changes, particularly as a result of continuous
product upgrades. Thus this manual only reflects the technical status of the products at the time
of printing. Before design-in the device into your or your customer’s product, please verify that this
document and the therein described specication is the latest revision and matches to the PCB
version. We highly recommend contacting our technical sales team prior to any activity of that kind.
The attached documentation does not entail any guarantee on the part of SECO Northern Europe
GmbH with respect to technical processes described in the manual or any product characteristics
set out in the manual. We do not accept any liability for any printing errors or other inaccuracies in
the manual unless it can be proven that we are aware of such errors or inaccuracies or that we are
unaware of these as a result of gross negligence and
SECO Northern Europe has failed to eliminate these errors or inaccuracies for this reason.
SECO Northern Europe GmbH expressly informs that this manual only contains a general
description of technical processes and instructions which may not be applicable in every individual
case. In cases of doubt, please contact our technical sales team.
In no event, SECO Northern Europe is liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental or
consequential damages arising out of use or resulting from non-compliancy of therein conditions
and precautions, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Before using a device covered by this document, please carefully read
Annex „F-1 Warranty Hints“
Annex „F-2 Field of Application“
Embedded systems are complex and sensitive electronic products. Please act carefully and ensure
that only qualied personnel will handle and use the device at the stage of development. In the
event of damage to the device caused by failure to observe the hints in this manual and on the
device (especially the safety instructions), SECO Northern Europe shall not be required to honour
the warranty even during the warranty period and shall be exempted from the statutory accident
liability obligation. Attempting to repair or modify the product also voids all warranty claims.

2. Safety Hints
Please read this section carefully and observe the instructions for your own safety and correct use of the device.
Observe the warnings and instructions on the device and in the manual. SECO Northern Europe embedded
systems have been built and tested by us and left the company in a perfectly safe condition.In order to maintain this
condition and ensure safe operation, the user must observe the instructions and warnings contained in this manual.
I. General Handling
Don’t drop or strike the unit: The PCB, display and/or other parts might be damaged.
Keep away from water and other liquids, the unit is not protected against.
Operate the unit under electrical and environmental conditions according to the technical
specication.
The electrical installations in the room must correspond to the requirements of the local (country-
specic) regulations.
Take care that there are no cables, particularly power cables, in areas where persons can trip over
them.
Do not place the device in direct sunlight, near heat sources or in a damp place.
All plugs on the connection cables must be screwed or locked to the housing.
Repairs may only be carried out by qualied specialist personnel authorized by
SECO Northern Europe GmbH or their local distributors.
Maintenance or repair on the open device may only be carried out by qualied personnel
authorized by SECO Northern Europe GmbH which is aware of with the associated dangers.
II. Electricity
The embedded systems may only be opened in accordance with the description in this user’s
manual for
- replacing of the (rechargeable, where applicable) lithium battery and/or
- conguration of interfaces, where applicable
These procedures have to be carried-out only by qualied specialist personnel.
When accessing internal components the device must be switched off and disconnected from the
power source.
When purchased core or basic versions without protecting back cover, don’t touch the PCB directly
with your ngers. Especially these products need to be handled very carefully.
Don’t operate or handle the unit without typical ESD protection measures, such as ground
earthing.
Operate the unit according to the technical specication only.
III. Damage or Permanent Malfunction
It must be assumed that a safe operation is no longer possible, in case
-the device has visible damage or
-the display is dark or shows strange pattern for longer period
-the device doesn’t react after a reset
In these cases the device must be shut down and secured against further use
IV. LCD and touch handling
If equipped with, the soft surface of a resistive touch screen is not suitable for use with stencils
and/or other devices for touch operation. There are special plastics pens available in commercial
shops. A projective capacitive touch screen might be protected by a heat strengthened glass or
acrylic or polycarbonate cover lens. These are dedicated for use with nger tips. There are very
special pens available which might work with a PCT touch.
Protect the LCD/touch/cover lens against scratches and sharp edges. The warranty does not cover
pixel failures resulting from non-compliant handling.
Clean the LCD/touch/cover lens with a soft cotton cloth with alcohol. Don’t use organic solvents,
acid or alkali solutions.
Water drops, nger fat or any similar fouling should be removed immediately from the LCD, cover
lens and metal frame to avoid any staining.
