When the unit’s backlight burns out, the unit’s status LED will brink green/red or
orange.
FP2600-T41 units use a CFL, long-life type backlight. The actual life of the back-
light however, will vary depending on the FP’s operating conditions, and replacement
may be required. A FP2600-T41 backlight has a life of 50,000 hours (approx. 5.7
years, at 25
o
C and 24 hour operation), when the backlight is lit continuously (time
required for brightness to fall to half its normal level.)
For backlight replacement details, refer to the replacement backlight unit’s
installation guide.
• To prevent an electric shock, be sure the FP’s power cord is un
plugged from the power outlet prior to replacing the backlight.
• When the power has just been turned OFF, the unit and backlight
are still very hot. Be sure to use gloves to prevent burns.
• The backlight is very fragile. Do not touch the glass tube directly
or try to remove its power cord. If the glass tube breaks you may
be injured.
