Thor VM1 with Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 2009 User Guide 111
Apply Touch Screen Protective Film
The optional Thor VM1 touch screen protective film is shipped in packs of 10. The pro-
tective film is flexible and treated with an anti-glare coating on the outer surface.
Installation
1. Make sure the touch screen is clean and dry before installation. See Cleaning for
instructions on suitable cleaning agents.
2. Pull the release tab to separate the protective backing from the rear of the protective
film. Avoid touching the rear side of the protective film while removing the liner.
3. Place the rear side of the protective film against the Thor VM1 display, roughly
centering the protective film over the display.
4. Slide the protective film until one corner can be slid back between the touch screen
and the display housing as the protective film is re-centered on the display. It may
be necessary to press the edges of the protective film against the display to ensure
the entire edge slides under the display housing. It is easiest to start with one of the
bottom corners.
5. Slide the protective film away from the other bottom corner. The film may bulge
slightly away from the Thor VM1 as it is being slid. Only slide the protective film
enough so that the protective film can slide under the display housing on that
corner when the protective film is returned to center.
6. Repeat with each of the top corners, sliding the protective film away from the corner
just enough that the protective film can slide under the display housing when the
protective film is returned to center.
7. It may be necessary to flex the protective film during the install, however use care
not to flex the protective film so much that the protective film kinks.
8. Once all corners are secure under the display housing, adjust the protective film, if
necessary, so it is centered on the touch screen.
The protective film is slightly larger than
the Thor VM1 touch screen, however the
notches on the edge of the protective
film (indicated by the arrows) corre-
spond to the display size of the Thor
VM1. The protective film is not adhesive.
The corner edges are designed to fit
between the Thor VM1 display and the
display housing to hold the protective
film in place.
A protective backing is applied to the
rear surface of the protective film. A pull
tab is attached to the protective backing
for easy removal of the protective back-
ing from the film.
