Has anyone used the Kinco HMIs (Anaheim Automation)? I just got a MT4532TE and uploaded a small test program. I've had it running for about 3 days, with the backlight set to go OFF after 10 minutes. Today, I uploaded a different program, which removed some of the on-screen components of the previous one. Now I can see "ghosted" patterns where some of the previous components existed. Apparently the screen timeout doesn't turn off the LCD panel itself, so the pattern gets burned in.
I just noticed that they have another option, Screen Saver, which lets you show a different screen for this purpose, but I certainly wouldn't have assumed such ghosting would happen in only a couple of days.
Does any one else have similar experience with ghosted images, and any suggestions to get rid of the ghost image lines? I assume this can be prevented by using the "screen saver" feature to display either a white or black screen when not in use. I guess this indicates a very cheap LCD panel.
Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated.
