Replacing the
Backlight Bulbs
The RS Monitor’s two backlight bulbs should provide many hours
of service. However, if they burn out, you can easily replace them.
Note
Backlight bulbs tend to have a consistent life span. For this
reason, you may wish to replace both bulbs at the same
time.
To replace the backlight bulbs, follow these steps:
Warning
Be sure to observe ESD precautions while working inside
the RS Monitor.
1. Open the back cover of the monitor (see the procedure for
Opening the back cover on page 55 of this manual).
2. Disconnect the three internal cables as shown below:
a.
Lift up the locking clamps from either side of the monitor
data cable connector at the right side of the monitor frame;
disconnect the cable.
b.
Disconnect the backlight cable from its connection on the
video controller board, inside the back cover.
c.
If the monitor has a touchscreen, disconnect the internal
touchscreen cable from its connection on the video con-
troller board, inside the back cover.
3. Slide the back cover up, off of its hinges and set it to one side
of the monitor.
