Installation Guide

• Power down and disconnect all cables from the terminal
• Remove the display module from the panel enclosure
• Disassemble the display module following the service manual instructions
• Remove the expired CCFL backlight assembly carefully
• Install the new 2711P-RL10C backlight into the display housing
• Reassemble the module, reinstall in the panel, and verify brightness

Selection Tips

• Verify your terminal is a standard PanelView Plus or Plus CE (not high-bright)
• Confirm display module size (700, 1000, 1250, or 1500) before ordering
• For LED display modules (Series C or later), verify compatibility with 2711P-RL10C2
• Consider display module age; terminals over 10 years may benefit from full module replacement
