序章
We often see LEDディスプレイ playing advertisements non-stop as if there is enough electricity, there is no need to rest. So, is this really the case? Does the LED display need to be shut down and rested every day?
目次
1. What are the effects of long-term work on LED displays?
The impact of long-term continuous work on LED displays is actually like we will get tired if we don’t rest for a long time. The display will also be “tired”, and this “tiredness” will also bring a series of problems. Let’s talk about this aspect.
First, let’s talk about LED lamp beads. Lamp beads are the “eyes” of LED displays, and long-term work will make them “blind”. How to say it?
The lamp beads emit light and heat for a long time, and the materials inside will slowly wear out, and the 輝度 will become darker and darker, just like our eyes are not good when we get old.
Moreover, this loss will make the lamp beads more likely to break, and black spots or bright spots will appear on the display, which looks particularly uncomfortable.
Let’s talk about circuit boards and driver chips. These two are the “brains” and “nerve centers” of LED displays.
Working for a long time will make them “fever”. If the temperature is too high, the circuit board will age, the components on it will become unstable, and may even break down.
The driver chip is even more afraid of heat. Once it gets hot, it may go wrong, causing the display screen to display abnormally, such as the screen shaking, flickering, or the wrong colour.
Speaking of colour, working for a long time will also make the colour of the LED display screen wrong.
We know that the colour of the LED display screen is a mixture of red, green, and blue lamp beads.
But after working for a long time, these three colours of lamp beads may become different brightness, or the colour is a bit biased, such as red becoming orange, and green becoming yellow-green.
In this way, the colour of the picture displayed on the display screen is inaccurate and looks weird.
2. The benefits of shutting down and resting every day for LED display screens
Giving the LED display screen a small vacation every day is actually a great thing for it, just like we humans need to rest. Let’s talk about the doorway in it:
First of all, let’s talk about the LED lamp beads. They are like little stars on the display screen, twinkling and very beautiful. However, if you keep them on, they will get tired, the brightness will gradually dim, and they may even “go on strike” and not light up.
This is just like when we stay up late for a long time, our eyes will become dry and tired.
Therefore, turning off the LED display for a while every day is like giving those little stars a holiday and letting them take a breath so that they can be used for a longer time, and we don’t have to spend money to replace new lamps beads all the time.
Let’s talk about the “body temperature” problem of the display. When the LED display is working, it is like a small stove, warm. If you let it work all the time, it will get hotter and hotter.
When it gets hot to a certain degree, it may “have a fever”, which will not only affect the display effect but also “bake” the parts inside.
Therefore, turning off the display for a while every day is like fanning it and cooling it down, so that it can work more stably and we can use it with confidence.
Finally, we have to talk about the “appearance” problem of the display. The image and colour of the LED display are like its “face”. If it works for a long time, its “face” may become dark, and the colour is not so bright.
This is just like when we are tired, and our faces will not look good. Therefore, turning off the display for a while every day is like giving it a beauty treatment to let it recover so that its “face” can always remain beautiful.
Especially for those occasions that require a high-precision colour display, such as ステージ performances, art 展示会, etc., it is even more necessary to give the display a small vacation every day.
In summary, giving the LED display a small vacation every day is beneficial to it. Not only can it extend the service life of the LED lamp beads, but it can also reduce the risk of overheating, improve system stability, and maintain image quality and colour accuracy.
Therefore, when you use the LED display, don’t forget to arrange the use time reasonably so that it can also get enough rest and maintenance!
3. Actual use case analysis
1). Mall advertising screen
Have you ever been to that kind of large shopping mall? As soon as you enter the door, there is a super large LED advertising screen playing all kinds of cool advertisements.
For example, a newly opened restaurant or the latest fashion item not only attracts your attention but also makes you curious about the stores in the mall.
Just like the shopping mall in the city centre, there is a huge LED screen in the atrium, and I can’t help but take a look every time I walk by.
The LED screen in the mall is not on 24 hours a day. At night, the mall is closed and there are fewer people, so the screen will rest. This can save electricity and let the screen “take a breath”. After all, it will get tired if it is on for a long time.
Moreover, have you noticed that those screens that often rest look clearer and brighter than those that are always on? This is because they have been fully rested, so the display effect is better.
2). Conference room display
The large LED screen in the company’s conference room is simply a meeting artefact. Whether it is showing PPT or playing videos, it is very clear. The last time we held an annual meeting, we also used it to broadcast the branch venue in other places, and the effect was great.
The LED screen in the conference room is not always on. When the meeting is over, the screen is turned off, which can save electricity and protect the screen.
Did you know that if you keep the screen on for a long time, the parts inside it will heat up, and problems may occur over time?
Therefore, letting the screen rest regularly, just like we need to sleep, can keep it in the best condition, and it will be as good as new when you use it for the next meeting.
3). Other scenarios
Use cases and shutdown rest practices and effect overview:
- Traffic control centre:
Have you seen the large monitoring screens in the traffic control centre? Rows of them show the real-time situation of each intersection. However, not all screens need to work at the same time.
For example, if there are fewer cars at night, or the surveillance camera at a certain intersection is broken, the corresponding screen can be turned off, which can save power and allow other screens to work better.
Moreover, letting the screen rest regularly can also extend their service life. After all, the traffic control centre cannot do without these screens 24 hours a day.
- Cultural exhibitions:
The exhibitions in 博物館 are becoming more and more high-tech. You can often see the super-large LED screens showing dynamic pictures of various artworks or historical events.
However, when the exhibition is over or the museum is closed at night, these screens will also rest. This can protect the screen and save energy.
Moreover, the next time you go to the museum to see the exhibition, you will find that those screens are still as bright and clear as new.
In general, LED displays are now everywhere, bringing a lot of convenience and fun to our lives. However, they also need our care and attention. Just like us, we need to rest after working for a long time, and the same is true for LED displays.
Letting them rest regularly can not only save energy but also extend their service life and keep them in the best condition. So, next time you see an LED display, think about whether it also needs a rest.
4. How to make a reasonable shutdown and rest plan
Is your LED display screen lit up all day? In fact, just like us, the display screen also needs a rest! Long-term work will make it “tired”, so let’s make a reasonable shutdown and rest plan!
1). Check the environment and adjust the plan
First, you have to see what the environment is like where the display screen works. Too hot, too cold, too humid, it won’t work!
Especially in the rainy season, the display screen is prone to moisture, so you have to open it for a while and use the heat of the screen to drive away the moisture.
So, if your display is in a humid place, or it is the rainy season, then turn it on at least twice a week, at least 2 hours each time, to let it “sweat”.
2). Reasonable arrangement of working time
The display cannot be turned on all the time, just like we cannot work all the time without rest. If it is turned on for a long time, the lamp chip in the display will heat up, age quickly, and may even burn out.
Therefore, you have to arrange some rest time for the display every day, at least 2 hours! In this way, the display can cool down, recover, and continue to work tomorrow.
3). Specific plan
3.1). Daily rest:
After using the display every day, remember to turn off the power of the display first and then turn off the computer or signal source! This will not let the display “stand still” waiting for the signal, which will waste electricity and may cause problems.
Let the display rest for at least 2 hours every day, and it also needs to “sleep”.
3.2). Monthly rest:
Every month, you have to give the display a big vacation, at least 2 hours or more. In this way, it can completely relax and extend its life.
3.3). Seasonal adjustment:
In humid seasons, open the display screen more often, at least twice a week, for more than 2 hours each time, to drive away moisture.
When it is too hot or too cold, don’t let the display screen work for too long, increase the rest time appropriately, and don’t let it be “heated” or “frozen”.
4). There are a few more tips
4.1). Don’t make a mistake in the order of power on and off:
When turning on the computer, turn on the computer or signal source first, then turn on the display screen.
When shutting down, turn off the display screen first, then turn off the computer or signal source. In this way, the display screen will not be “anxious” because of waiting for the signal.
4.2). The environment should be good:
The area around the display screen should be kept dry and ventilated, and flammable and explosive items should not be placed. Safety first!
4.3). Don’t forget regular maintenance:
Regularly check the circuits and switches of the display screen to see if there are any loose or damaged ones. Also, don’t forget to clean the display screen regularly to keep it shiny!
How about this shutdown and rest plan, is it both practical and easy? Hurry up and make one for your LED display screen! Let it also “combine work and rest”, extend its life, and serve you better!
5. Maintenance and care during shutdown and rest
When your LED display enters the “vacation” mode, don’t forget to give it some special care, so that it can still shine as before when it “goes to work” next time.
1). Dryness is the king
1.1). Moisture-proof tips:
Use air conditioners and dehumidifiers to create a dry and cool environment for the display, or put some desiccant next to it to keep it away from moisture.
Don’t put flowers and plants near the display. They are “humidity makers” and are not good for the display.
1.2). Waterproof and dustproof tips:
Check the surface and inside of the display regularly to ensure that there are no “uninvited guests” such as water droplets and iron powder.
The vents are the “entrance” for dust. Remember to clean them regularly to let the display breathe smoothly.
2). The line needs “care”
2.1). Circuit inspection is essential:
Frequently check the circuit of the display screen to see if there are any signs of ageing, damage or being “kissed” by mice.
If you find a problem, don’t delay it, find a professional to repair it immediately, safety first!
2.2). Remember to prevent electric shock:
Don’t touch the switch and circuit with wet hands, and electricity is blind.
If you are not a professional, don’t touch the circuit inside the display screen to avoid electric shock or damage to the circuit.
3). Switches have a sequence
3.1). Turning on in particular:
First turn on the control computer or video source to ensure that the signal is stable, then turn on the power of the display.
3.2). Shutdown is also orderly:
First, turn off the power of the display, then turn off the computer or video source so that the hardware can last longer.
4). Use time should be arranged reasonably
4.1). Regular “wake-up”:
Especially in the rainy season, let the display screen shine at least once a week, and turn it on for more than 2 hours to drive away moisture.
4.2). Proper “rest”:
Let the display screen rest for at least 2 hours every day, especially when it is hot and humid outdoors; don’t let it get too tired.
5). Choose a good storage environment
5.1). The temperature should be appropriate:
If you want to store the display screen for a long time, you need to find a place with a suitable temperature, not too hot or too cold.
5.2). Humidity control:
The humidity of the storage environment should also be just right, don’t let the display screen get damp or dry too much.
In short, the LED display screen is like your little friend, you have to take good care of it, so that it can accompany you longer!
6. Strategies for dealing with special situations
1). Adjust the shutdown and rest plan:
Just like we need to rest, the LED display screen also needs to “take a breath”. But in special events or emergencies, such as continuous live broadcasts and important meetings, it may have to “work overtime”.
1.1). Extend the “overtime” time:
At this critical moment, the display screen may have to work continuously for a long time. We have to keep an eye on its “body temperature” (that is, temperature) and working status to ensure that it does not “get a fever” and burn out.
If it feels a little “hot”, slightly lower the brightness or fan it.
1.2). Optimize “heat dissipation equipment”:
The display screen will definitely “sweat” (generate heat) when working for a long time. We have to prepare “heat dissipation equipment” for it, such as adding a small fan, or moving it to a well-ventilated place.
If conditions permit, it is also a good idea to turn on an air conditioner to “cool it down”.
1.3). Regular “physical examination”:
Just like we have regular physical examinations, the display screen also needs regular inspections. Check whether the circuit is loose, whether the power supply is stable, and whether the cooling system is easy to use. In this way, it can serve us healthily.
2). Backup display screen or emergency treatment plan: be prepared for any eventuality and be at ease
2.1). Prepare a “stand-in”:
What if the main display screen “goes on strike”? Don’t worry, we prepare a “stand-in” (backup display screen) in advance. In this way, if the main display screen has a problem, we can immediately replace it with a “stand-in” to ensure the smooth progress of the event.
2.2). Develop an “emergency manual”:
There must be an “emergency manual” that describes what to do if the display screen fails, how to find spare equipment, and how to contact technical support. In this way, once the display screen has a problem, we can follow the “manual” and solve it calmly.
2.3). Cultivate an “emergency team”:
There must be a few people who know some “first aid knowledge” of the display screen. For example, how to check the line and how to replace the spare equipment. You can train them at ordinary times, or simulate emergency situations to let them practice.
2.4). Data “safe”:
The content displayed on the display screen must be stored in a “safe”. In case the display screen has a problem and the data is lost, we can still get it back from the “safe”. This “safe” can be a folder in the computer or a network disk, as long as it is safe and convenient.
In short, to deal with the special situation of the LED display screen, we must be both careful and thoughtful.
We should not only make the display screen not too tired when “working overtime”, but also prepare “substitutes” and “emergency manuals”, as well as an “first aid team” and “safe”. In this way, we can be calm and deal with it at ease!
