3 Connection Overview
CAUTION: Never connect or disconnect parts of the system when the system
is powered up as this may cause serious damage.
3.1 Prepare for connection
Connection and usage are straightforward. However, during assembly, care
needs to be taken regarding the following:
Ensure parts, especially power and signal cables, match the system. If
you are making your own cables & connectors refer carefully to the
video monitor specifications and the “Connectors, Pin outs & Jumpers”
section in this user guide to ensure the correct pin-to-pin wiring.
Ensure cables have been correctly connected and that connections are
secure.
Screws and fasteners need to be secure, consider using locking glue if
appropriate.
Switches and jumpers are set correctly.
The output signal is compatible with display equipment.
Legal & safety requirements have been met with particular attention to
the likely operating environment. Although the M3-310 is designed to
be fanless in normal conditions some installations and environments
may require additional cooling.
3.2 Basic connection for M3-310
The following summarizes a simple connection:
Connect the inverter (if it is not built-in the panel) to the CCFT lead
connector(s) on the panel.
Plug the inverter cable to CNB1 and CNA1.(if necessary) on the M3-310.
Plug another end to the connector on the inverter.
Note: Different inverter models require different cables and different pin
assignment. Make sure correct cable pin out to match inverter. Using wrong
cable pin out may damage the inverter.
Plug the panel signal cable direct to CN2 (if TTL panel is used) or J3 (if
LVDS panel is used) on the M3-310. Plug the other end of cables on the
LCD panel connector.
Page 8 of 36
CAUTION: Before connecting power ensure all parts are suitably
insulated and there is no risk of short circuit or electrocution. Connect
the power supply (DC 12V @ 1.2A minimum. - ensure correct polarity)
to the M3-310 power input (PP1).
Plug the OSD switch mount cable (p/n:420680260-3) to CNC1 on the
M3-310 and another to the OSD switch mount. (P/N:416100520-3)
For “Auto play with Power On” , short the pin1-2 on JP6
Ensure there is a CF card installed with compatible media loaded.
If the optional buttons are being used connect them to CN6 and CN3

4 System Notes
The following outlines various issues related to the M3-310 and making a
complete system:
LED1/LED2 - The power/status LED indicator shows the following
status of Panel:
Controller LED status (LED1): Backlight LED status (LED2):
RS-232 port – This port supports RS-232 communications for control.
The baud rate must be set to (9600, n,8,1) and record suffix is set to
CR (0DH).
USB – Plug an USB extension cable (P/N:426894600-3). Use a USB
flash drive for content update without removing the CF card. The M3310 will reset the power when a USB flash drive is inserted or removed
from the USB connector. (For the details of USB content update, please
refer to the Application note.)
Audio output – This provides speaker out and line out connection.
Master volume is controlled through OSD with buttons connecting to
CN6. For connection, plug a stereo speaker (P/N 230800301) with
stereo cable (P/N 426680900-3) to the connector CN1. If for line out
connection, connect an audio line out cable (P/N 426450300-3) to CN9.

7.2 Start up
Two start-up modes (Start track mode and Sleep mode) can be selected
when exporting a playlist to CF Card using DV Studio Plus software.
7.2.1 Start track mode
If start track mode is selected in playlist, the pre-defined started track will be
played first after boot-up. For example, if track #5 is defined as the start
track, then the M3-310 will play track #5 after start up. (The default start
track is the first track in playlist)
Step by step:
Plug in the external power supply
Insert Compact Flash Card containing DV Studio Software exported “.pll
/ .prj” and other media files. (e.g. .mpg, .mp3, .jpg)
Switch the power 'on/off' switch to 'on'.
The track #5 (started track) will be played first.
Once the track #5 is finished, the first track in playlist will be followed
and played.
7.2.2 Sleep mode
If sleep mode is selected in a playlist, a blank screen will be shown at the
beginning until the pre-defined button has been pressed. For example, if
button# 3 is defined in sleep mode, after boot-up the M3-310 will play a
blank screen until the button #3 is pressed.
Page 26 of 36
Step by step:
Plug in the external power supply
Insert CompactFlash Card containing DV Studio Software exported “.pll
/ .prj” and other media files. (e.g. .mpg, .mp3, .jpg)
Switch the power 'on/off' switch to 'on'.
Press 'button #3'.
The first track will be played.
Note: Special specific track playback activated by an assigned button can also
be performed in sleep mode - contact Digital View for details.
7.3 Loop Playback
The M3-310 will play in auto-loop play mode, so long as none of the function
buttons are pressed.
(NOTE: Loop playback is the standard playback setting of the M3-310 but the
track playback sequence can be changed as required: contact local sales
office.)
Page 27 of 36
8 Playback Operation
8.1 Playback modes
There are two playback modes in M3-310 – “Playlist mode” and “Simple play
mode”.
8.1.1 Playlist mode
When operating in playlist mode, both the project file (*.prj) and the playlist
file (*.pll) must be present on the Compact Flash card. These are used to
control the sequence for all video tracks.
The project and playlist file are created using the Digital View DV Studio
Plus software which is available for download from the Digital View website.
Using this software, you can set simple sequences or complex sequences
including “jump track“ or “next track” actions. DV Studio can also program
buttons with different functions such as “play”, “stop”, “pause”, “mute”,
“previous”, “next” and “volume”.
8.1.2 Simple play mode
In simple play mode, the user just copies all video files (.mpg/.avi/.mov) or
JPEG files (.jpg) onto the CF card in a folder called Media. The M3-310 will
play these files in alphanumeric sequence.
For JPEG files, the play time can be set by the last digit of the filename. (For
example: APPLE5.jpg, where “5” means the track will be displayed for 5
seconds.) Note: Do not use the same filename for both MPEG and JPEG.
Note:
(1) Make sure all capital letters in filename defined in playlist are consistent with the
filename on the CF card. All filenames should be in 8.3 format (i.e. xxxxxxxx.xxx)
and avoid using any illegal characters like “~”, “_”, “-“, etc
(2) All files (including project file and playlist file) must be placed under a folder
named “Media” on Compact Flash card. For example:

8.2 Operating functions
The following shows the default button operation in “Simple Play mode”. (This
requires a button switch-mount or 8-segments touch screen connected.)
PLAY (Button 1)
Resumes playback of videos from track 1 after
STOP has been pressed.
Resumes playback of the track from the point
that it has been set to PAUSE.
Playback is reset back to the beginning of the
specific track which is being played at the time
the PLAY button is pressed.
STOP (Button 2)
When STOP is pressed the video stops playing
and a blank screen is displayed.
PAUSE (Button 3)
When PAUSE is pressed playback will pause and
the current image will remain screen.
Press Pause again or PLAY to resume normal
playback from the position where it was
paused.
REPEAT (Button 4)
When REPEAT is pressed the current track loop
back on itself continuously.
To disable the repeat mode press REPEAT,
PLAY, PREVIOUS TRACK or NEXT TRACK . When
the track plays to the end it will playback the
next track (and etc.) as normal.
NEXT TRACK (Button 5)
The NEXT TRACK function can be activated only
when a track is already playing. When NEXT
TRACK is pressed the current video stops
playing and jumps directly to the start of the
next track.
VOLUME - (Button 6)
Decreases audio output volume setting.
VOLUME + (Button 7)
Increases audio output volume setting.
MUTE (Button 8)
When MUTE is pressed, all the tracks will have
no sound.
Press MUTE again to resume the normal sound
in all tracks.
Note : The buttons can be re-defined by DV Studio Plus* software if operating in
playlist mode.

The maximum thickness of the board is 38mm without add-on board (measured from bottom of
PCB to top of components, including any underside components & leads). We recommend
clearances of:
5mm from bottom of PCB - if mounting on a metal plate we also recommend a layer of
suitable insulation material is added to the mounting plate surface.
10mm above the components
3~5mm around the edges
Any of the holes shown above can be used for mounting the PCB, they are 3.2mm in diameter.
CAUTION: Ensure adequate insulation is provided for all areas of the PCB with special attention
to high voltage parts. (e.g. the inverter)
