Environmental Considerations

The OMI5000 Series is designed to operate in temperatures from 0° to
50°C (32° to 122°F). It is intended for indoor installations and may not
be suitable for use in certain outdoor applications. Avoid installing the
OMI5000 Series touchscreens in environments with severe mechanical
vibration or shocks. Do not install the OMI in enclosures with rapid
temperature variations or high humidity. Either will cause condensation
of water inside the device and eventual damage to the OMI.

Safety Precautions

Please observe the following precautions when installing the OMI.
Failure to comply with these restrictions could result in loss of life,
serious personal injury, or equipment damage.

Warning: Do not operate the OMI in areas subject to explosion

due to flammable gases, vapors, or dusts.

Warning: Do not connect the OMI to an AC power source. You

will cause permanent damage to the OMI.

Warning: Do not attempt to use a DC power supply that does

not meet OMI power requirements. You may cause malfunction
or permanent damage to the OMI.

Warning: Do not power the OMI with a DC power supply used

for inductive loads or for input circuitry to the programmable
logic controller. Severe voltage spikes caused by these devices
may damage the OMI.

Control Panel Design Guidelines

Pay careful attention to the placement of system components and
associated cable routing. These items can significantly enhance the
performance and integrity of your control application.
