Damage to the color LCD display panel
caused by using a hard-pointed object or
other misuse may void your warranty on
the MTX5000 IDU.
Note
If you are connected to the Ethernet via the IDU
rear panel ETHERNET RJ45 connector and you
find that the color LCD display panel appears to be
operating very slowly or has locked up completely,
