Power On and Access
The Color Monitor does not have an on/off switch. The Monitor automatically powers-on whenever
power is applied to the unit in which it is installed.
When the unit is powered on for the first time, the Home Screen appears (Figure 2).
The Color Monitor is accessed by touching the screen. If the unit is powered up and is not touched for
15 minutes, the backlight will turn off to save power. The backlight turns back on when the operator
again touches the screen, showing the last displayed screen.
