Honeywell 6100 Marine Radio User Manual

For touch screen input, use the stylus included with the terminal or your finger. The method
you choose depends on which one is most appropriate for your application. While there is a
great deal of variation in different applications, you generally achieve greater accuracy with the
stylus for buttons or icons that are close together.
Use of objects, such as paper clips, pencils, or ink pens on the touch screen can damage
the input panel and may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
Using Screen Protectors
Honeywell defines proper use of the terminal touch panel display as using a screen protector and proper
stylus. Screen protectors maintain the ongoing integrity (i.e., prevent scratching) of the touch panel, which
is why their use is recommended for applications that require a high to medium level of interface with the
touch panel.
Honeywell continues to advocate the use of screen protectors on all Dolphin terminals. We recommend
implementing a screen protector replacement program to ensure that screen protectors are replaced
periodically when signs of damage/wear are noticeable. For general use, we recommend replacing the
screen protector every thirty (30) days. However, replacement cycles vary according to the average level
of touch panel use in your application.
Replacement screen protectors can be purchased directly from Honeywell. Contact a Honeywell sales
representative for details.
Honeywell also mandates use of a proper stylus, which is one that has a stylus tip radius of no less than
0.8mm. Use of the Honeywell stylus included with the terminal is recommended at all times.
Honeywell’s warranty policy covers wear on the touch panel for the first 12 months provided that a screen
protector is applied and an approved stylus is used for the 12-month duration covered by the warranty.
