The Eflyn 55" Outdoor Touch Screen Digital Signage IP-65 V8 series

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

General / Pre-Sales Questions

Do you offer outdoor displays with clear visibility even when the viewer is wearing polarized sunglasses?

Most LCD displays use polarizers to reduce glare and improve the viewing angle of the display. The polarizers are typically made of thin sheets of polarizing film that are placed over the front and back of the display. These polarizers allow light to pass through in only one direction, which helps to reduce glare and improve the contrast of the display. However, when viewed through polarized sunglasses, the polarizers in the LCD display and the sunglasses can interfere, causing the display to appear dark or distorted. This is because the polarizers in the sunglasses and the LCD display are oriented in different directions and block light from different angles. As a result, the display may appear darker or have reduced contrast when viewed through polarized sunglasses. Eflyn uses a proprietary special film that is applied to the LCD panel to preserve the polarization of the display and also improves its visibility when viewed through polarized sunglasses.

What is important in an interactive touchscreen outdoor digital signage?

There are several factors that are important to consider when choosing an outdoor touch screen digital signage:
  1. Durability: Outdoor digital signage needs to be able to withstand a range of environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, moisture, and dust, so it is important to choose a display that is designed for outdoor use and has a high level of durability.
  2. Viewability: Outdoor displays need to be able to be seen clearly in different lighting conditions, including direct sunlight, so it is important to choose a display with a high brightness level and good contrast ratio.
  3. Touch sensitivity: Outdoor touch screens need to be able to accurately register touch input in different weather conditions and with gloves or other protective clothing. It is important to choose a display with a high level of touch sensitivity and accuracy.
  4. Connectivity: Outdoor digital signage may need to be connected to a network or other devices in order to display content or gather data. It is important to consider the connectivity options and requirements of the display, including wired or wireless options and compatibility with different operating systems and devices.
  5. Power and energy efficiency: Outdoor displays may need to be powered by a battery or other power source and may be used in areas where electrical outlets are not available. It is important to consider the power requirements and energy efficiency of the display to ensure reliable operation and minimize operating costs.

Does the high-brightness outdoor digital signage add strain to the human eyes?

To minimize the risk of eye strain from high-brightness outdoor digital signage, Eflyn use Ambient light sensors in all our outdoor displays. These sensors measure the amount of light in the environment and send a signal to the display to adjust the brightness accordingly.

Why is Outdoor digital signage more expensive than indoor digital signage?

Outdoor digital signage tends to be more expensive than indoor digital signage for several reasons:

Technical Questions

What is Anti Graffiti Paint Coating?

Anti-graffiti paint coatings are protective coatings that are applied to surfaces to prevent graffiti from adhering to the surface and to make it easier to remove graffiti if it does occur. These coatings are often used on outdoor surfaces, such as walls, buildings, and public infrastructure, that are vulnerable to graffiti vandalism. Anti-graffiti paint coatings are typically applied as a clear, transparent layer over the existing paint or surface. They work by creating a smooth, non-porous surface that graffiti cannot adhere to, making it easier to remove graffiti using water and a mild cleaner. Eflyn uses Anti-graffiti paint coatings in most of our outdoor digital signage and outdoor self-checkout kiosks. We believe this special coating in conjunction with other anti-graffiti measures, such as surveillance cameras, helps deter graffiti vandalism and maintain the appearance of the surface of the outdoor displays.

What is ioT-Based Environmental Monitoring System?

An IoT (Internet of Things) based environmental monitoring system is a network of sensors, devices, and software that is used to collect, transmit, and analyze data about the environment. These systems can be used to monitor a wide range of environmental parameters, such as temperature, humidity, air quality, noise level, and other factors, and can provide real-time data and alerts to help organizations or individuals make informed decisions about their environment. IoT-based environmental monitoring systems can be used in a variety of settings, including industrial, commercial, and residential applications. They can be used to optimize energy use, improve indoor air quality, monitor the health and safety of buildings and occupants, and support other environmental management goals. IoT-based environmental monitoring systems typically use wireless communication technologies, such as WiFi, Bluetooth, or cellular, to transmit data from the sensors to a central hub or server, where it can be processed and analyzed. The data can then be accessed and visualized through a web-based interface or mobile app, or it can be integrated with other systems or applications.

What is IP (Ingress Protection) 65 or IP-65 rating?

IP (Ingress Protection) rating is a system used to rate the level of protection provided by an enclosure against the ingress of solid objects and liquids. The IP rating consists of two numbers: the first number refers to the level of protection against solid objects, and the second number refers to the level of protection against liquids. An IP65 rating indicates that the enclosure provides a high level of protection against solid objects and low-pressure water jets. Specifically, the “6' rating indicates that the enclosure is dust-tight, which means that it is completely protected against the ingress of dust. The “5' rating indicates that the enclosure is protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction, which means that it can withstand water spray or splashing from any angle without water entering the enclosure. IP65 rated enclosures are commonly used in outdoor or industrial environments where the equipment needs to be protected from dust and water. They may also be used in other applications where a high level of protection is required, such as in medical or food processing facilities.

Why do I see a little gap between the glass and the LCD in your outdoor touchscreen digital signage?

The main reason is that we have added this gap to have air circulation between the LCD and the tempered glass. In general, air circulation between the LCD and the tempered glass helps to maintain the optimal operating conditions for the display and can improve its performance and reliability in outdoor environments.
  1. Thermal management: The LCD and other components in the display generate heat during operation, and air circulation can help to dissipate this heat and prevent overheating.
  2. Condensation prevention: Outdoor displays are exposed to a range of temperature and humidity conditions, and air circulation can help to prevent condensation from forming on the inside of the display.
  3. Dust prevention: Air circulation can help to prevent dust and other contaminants from accumulating between the LCD and the tempered glass, which can affect the display’s performance and lifespan.
  4. Touch accuracy: Air circulation can help to maintain a consistent air gap between the LCD and the tempered glass, which is important for maintaining the accuracy and sensitivity of the touch screen.

Can I perform maintenance myself, or should I hire a professional?

Basic cleaning and inspection can be done by staff members. However, for more in-depth maintenance, like internal component checks and repairs, it's advisable to consult with a professional technician to avoid any accidental damage.

Can I power down the signage during severe weather to prevent damage?

Yes, if you anticipate severe weather conditions, it's advisable to power down the signage temporarily to prevent potential damage. Modern digital signage systems have power management options for such situations.

How can I protect the outdoor digital signage from extreme weather conditions?

To protect your signage from harsh weather, ensure that it is installed in an enclosure or casing designed for outdoor use. This will shield it from rain, direct sunlight, dust, and extreme temperatures.

How often should I perform maintenance on the outdoor digital signage?

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your signage in top condition. Cleaning should be done as needed, but we recommend a thorough inspection and maintenance check at least once a month to ensure all components are functioning properly.

How should I clean the screen of my outdoor digital signage?

To clean the screen, use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe away dust and smudges. For stubborn stains, you can moisten the cloth with water or a mild detergent solution, but avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the screen. Always turn off the display before cleaning.

Is there a recommended schedule for software updates?

We periodically release software updates to improve functionality and address potential vulnerabilities. It's advisable to install these updates as they become available to keep your signage running smoothly.

What should I do if I notice any technical issues with the signage?

If you encounter technical issues, please contact our support team immediately. Attempting to fix complex technical problems on your own may result in more significant damage. Our experts can guide you through troubleshooting or arrange for on-site service if necessary.
