ASSEMBLY NOTES

This controller is designed for monitor and custom display projects using 1600x1200 or 1366x768 or 1280x1024 or 1280x800 or 1280x768 or 1024 x 768 or 800x600 or 800x480 or 640x480 resolution TFT panels with a VGA, SVGA, WXGA, XGA, SXGA or UXGA signal input. The following provides some guidelines for installation and preparation of a finished display solution.

Preparation: Before proceeding it is important to familiarize yourself with the parts making up the system and the various connectors, mounting holes and general layout of the controller. As much as possible connectors have been labeled. Guides to connectors and mounting holes are shown in the following relevant sections.

1. LCD Panel: This controller is designed for typical LVDS or TTL single interface panels with panel voltage 3.3V, 5V or 12V or 18V. Due to the variation between manufacturers of panels signal timing and other panel

characteristics, factory setup

and confirmation should be obtained before connecting to a panel. (NOTE: Check panel power jumper settings before connection)

2. Controller: Handle the controller with care as static charge may damage electronic components. Make sure correct jumper and dip switches settings to match the target LCD panel.

3. LCD signal cable (Single pixel TTL panel): In order to provide a clean signal it is recommended that LCD signal cables should not longer than 33cm (13 inches). If loose wire cabling is utilized these can be made into a harness with cable ties. Care should be taken when placing the cables to avoid signal interference. Additionally it may be necessary in some systems to add ferrite cores to the cables to minimize signal noise.

4. LCD signal cable (LVDS panel): In order to provide a clean signal it is recommended that LVDS signal cables are no longer than 46cm (18 inches). If those wire cabling is utilized these can be made into a harness with cable ties. Care should be taken when placing the cables to avoid signal interference. Additionally it may be necessary in some systems to add ferrite cores to the cable to minimize signal noise.

5. Inverter: This will be required for the backlight of an LCD, some LCD panels have an inverter built in. As LCD panels may have 1 or more backlight tubes and the power requirements for different panel backlights may vary it is important to match the inverter in order to obtain optimum performance. See Application notes page 18 for more information on connection.

6. Inverter Cables: 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.

7. Function Controls: The following section discusses the controls required and the section on connectors provides the detail. The controls are minimal: On/Off, Backlight Brightness (depends on inverter), OSD (5 momentary buttons) analog VR type or (8 momentary buttons) digital type.

8. Function controls cable: The cables to the function switches should be of suitable quality and length so that impedance does not affect performance. Generally lengths up to 1 meter (3 feet) should be acceptable.

9. Status LED: The pin direction of the LED should be corrected for right colour indication. Red colour stands for standby. Green colour stands for signal on. The status LED is an optional part only, can be unconnected.

10. IR sensor: It is an optional part only, can be unconnected if not using IR remote control.

11. Audio add-on board: Provide the interface for the audio add-on board to be connected. The audio add-on board gives

the audio input and output signal connection. But the volume cannot be controlled by the OSD menu on the controller. It is an optional part only, can be unconnected if not using audio.

12. VGA Input Cable: As this may affect regulatory emission test results and the quality of the signal to the controller a suitably shielded cable should be utilized.

• AV cables: Standard Composite or S-video cables can be used. Reasonable quality cable should be used to avoid image quality degradation.

13. DVI-D input cable : Plug the DVI cable to the connector P2 on the controller board.

14. Alternate video input for S-Video and composite video

15. HD/SD component video input : Plug the component video input signal on CNV2 connector

• Power Input: 12V/24VDC is required, this should be a regulated supply. The power rating is depending on the panel and

inverter used. Normally, power supply with 3.5Amp current output should enough for most of 4x CCFT panels. Although the controller provides power regulation for the LCD power this does not relate to the power supplied to the backlight inverter. If an unregulated power supply is provided to an inverter any fluctuations in power may affect operation, performance and lifetime of the inverter and or backlight tubes.

• Power output: Note the controller has an overall 3Amp current limit and the current available from the auxiliary power output will be dependent on the power input and other system requirements.

• Power Safety: Note that although only 12VDC / 24VDC is required as ‘power-in’ a backlight inverter for panel backlighting produces significantly higher voltages (the inverter does not connect to the ground plane). We strongly advise appropriate insulation for all circuitry.

• EMI: Shielding will be required for passing certain regulatory emissions tests. Also the choice of external Controller to PC signal cable can affect the result.

• Ground: The various PCB mounting holes are connected to the ground plane.

• Servicing: The board is not user serviceable or repairable. Warranty does not cover user error in connecting up to the

controller and is invalidated by unauthorized modification or repairs.

• Controller Mounting: It is recommended that a clearance of at least 10mm is provided above and 5mm below the controller when mounted. Additionally consideration should be given to:

• Electrical insulation.

• Grounding.

• EMI shielding.

• Cable management. Note: It is important to keep panel signal cables apart from the inverter & backlight cables to

prevent signal interference.

• Heat & Ventilation: Heat generated from other sources, for example the backlight of a very high brightness panel may

generate significant heat which could adversely affect the controller.

• Other issues that may affect safety or performance.

• PC Graphics Output: A few guidelines:

• Signal quality is very important, if there is noise or instability in the PC graphics output this may result in visible noise

on the display.

• Refer to graphics modes table in specifications section for supported modes.

• Non-interlaced & interlaced video input is acceptable.

IMPORTANT: Please read the Application Notes section for more information.

CONNECTION & OPERATION

CAUTION: Never connect or disconnect parts of the display system when the system is powered up as this may cause serious

damage.

CONNECTION

Connection and usage is quite straight forward (it is useful to have the relevant connection diagram available at this time):

1. LCD panel & Inverter: Connect the inverter (if it is not built-in the panel) to the CCFT lead connector of the LCD panel.

2. TTL type (Single pixel) panels: Plug the signal cables direct to CN3 and CN4 (CN4 will not be used for 3x6-bit panel) on the controller board. Plug the other end of cables to the LCD connector board (if connector board is required, otherwise the signal can be direct plug to the LCD panel connector). Then plug the board connector to the LCD panel connector. LVDS type panels: The controller board has the built-in LVDS transmitter driver. Plug the LVDS cable to J3. Insert the panel end of the cable the LCD panel connector.

3. Inverter & Controller: Plug the inverter cable to CNB1 and CNA1 (if necessary). Plug another end to the connector on the inverter.

4. Function switch & Controller: Plug the OSD switch mount cable to CNC1 on the controller board and another to the OSD switch mount.

5. LED & Controller: Plug in a 3-way with dual colour LED to connector LED1 on the controller board.

6. IR & Controller: Plug in a 3-way with IR sensor to connector IR1 on the controller board.

7. Jumpers & Switches: Check all jumpers and switches (JP7, SW3, SW4) are set correctly. Details referring the connection diagram (a separate document) or the jumpers and switches setting table (in the following section).

8. Jumpers & Inverter & Panel voltage: Particularly pay attention to the settings of JA3, JA5 & JA6, JB2 and JB3. JB2 & JB3 are used for inverter control (read inverter specification and information on the jumper table to define the correct settings). JA3, JA5 & JA6 are used for panel voltage input (read panel specification and information on the jumper table to define the correct settings).

9. VGA cable & Controller: Plug the VGA cable to the connector P1 on the controller board.

10. Power supply & Controller: Plug the DC 12V/24V power in to the connector PP5 or PP2/3. You can consider to use

DigitalView mating power cable P/N 426013800-3, 160mm for PP5 connection.

11. External panel power input : Plug power cable : P/N 426013700-3 for external panel power input (3.3 (max 7A) /

5V (max 7A) / 12V (max 5A) / 18V (max3.5))

12. Power on: Switch on the controller board and panel by using the OSD switch mount.

The red LED will light up when power on. The LED will change to green when VGA signal on. General:

• If you are using supplied cables & accessories, ensure they are correct for the model of panel and controller.

• If you are making your own cables & connectors refer carefully to both the panel & inverter specifications and the section

in this manual, “Connectors, Pinouts & Jumpers” to ensure the correct pin to pin wiring.

PC SETTINGS

The controller has been designed to take a very wide range of input signals however to optimize the PC’s graphics performance we recommend choosing 60Hz vertical refresh rate – this will not cause screen flicker.

OPERATION

Once the system has been connected and switched on there are a number of functions available to adjust the display image as summarized in the following sections. The settings chosen will be saved for each mode independently.

CONTROLLER DIMENSIONS

The maximum thickness of the controller is 20.6mm with or without video 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 such as the inverter.

APPLICATION NOTES

USING THE CONTROLLER WITHOUT BUTTONS ATTACHED

This is very straightforward:

• Firstly setup the controller/display system with the buttons. With controls attached and display system active make any settings for colour, tint and image position as required then switch everything off.

• Remove the control switches, the 12-way (CNC1) cable.

• Use a jumper or similar to connect pins 1 & 2 on CNC1, this will fix the board On.

• Refer to inverter specifications for details as to fixing brightness to a desired level, this may require a resistor, an open

circuit or closed circuit depending on inverter.

Summary: On CNC1 the only pins that are used are for On/Off and Brightness (if controller mounted inverter is used). On CNC1 the pins are for momentary type buttons so it doesn’t matter that no buttons are attached.

INVERTER CONNECTION

There are potentially 3 issues to consider with inverter connection:

• Power

• Enable

• Brightness

Please read the following sections for a guide to these issues. Inverter Power: As per the table for CNB1 pin 1 is ground and pin 2 provides 12V / 24V DC. This should be matched with the

inverter specification: see table.

CNB1

PIN DESCRIPTION

1 Ground 2 +12V / +24V DC

Remark: For higher power inverter, more current (for 12V) can be taken from CNA1 pin 1.

Enable: This is a pin provided on some inverters for On/Off function and is used by this panel controller for VESA DPMS compliance. If the inverter does not have an enable pin or the enable pin is not used then DPMS will not be operational. Pin 3 should be matched to the inverters specification for the ‘enable’ or ‘disable’ pin.

CNB1

PIN DESCRIPTION

3 Enable

Further, jumpers JB2 & JB3 should be set to match the inverters specification for the enable pin power and High or Low setting: see table.

Ref

Purpose Note

JB2 Inverter enable voltage 1-2 H = 12V / 24V,, 2-3 H = 5V (Vcc), OPEN H = open collector JB3 Inverter control 1-2 H = On, 2-3 L = On

Brightness: There are various methods for brightness control and it is important to consider the specifications for the inverter to be used. Generally the situation is:

• Brightness can control by using a resistor or VR (Variable Resistor).

• Brightness controlled by adding a circuit such as PWM (Pulse Width Modulation).

• No adjustment of brightness is possible.

CNB1 pins 4 & 5 are available for connecting to an inverter or circuit where VR control is supported.

The VR for brightness depends on the inverter. The main power load for On/Off is handled by a relay on the controller.

Example for circuit design :

Signal description / Notes :

1) R1 : 470ohm on board

2) RPOT is an external potentiometer (in-line dip style) that can be plugged directly into CNC1 pins 3,4,5. RPOT must be supplied / installed by user.

3) BVR_B : Voltage tapped from “top” of potentiometer, the node of R1 and RPOT.

4) BVR_WIP : Voltage tapped from wiper arm of RPOT.

5) BVR_A : Voltage tapped from “bottom” of RPOT.

Note : BVR_A voltage is left floating on the controller board. To use this circuit, you need to tie this point to a potential (usually GND, available at CNC1 pin 6).

1.)Choose RPOT = 10K

2.) Tie BVR_A to GND

3.) Circuit analysis gives BVR_WIP as the following (see Figure 1)

BVR_WIP = 5 x (Rbc/10.47) where BVR_WIP is in Volts.

And Rbc is the resistance from the wiper arm to bottom of pot in Kohms.

To evaluate, plug in different values of Rbc :

Rbc BVR_WIP

0 0 V

2.5 K 1.2 V 5 K 2.4 V

7.5 K 3.6 V

10 K 4.8 V

So this circuit could provide Brightness adjust voltage ranging from 0V to 5V.

TROUBLESHOOTING

General

A general guide to troubleshooting a flat panel display system it is worth considering the system as separate elements, such as:

¾ Controller (jumpers, PC settings) ¾ Panel (controller, cabling, connection, panel, PC settings) ¾ Backlight (inverter, cabling, backlight tubes) ¾ Cabling ¾ Computer system (display settings, operating system)

Through step by step cross checking with instruction manuals and a process of elimination to isolate the problem it is usually possible to clearly identify the problem area.

No image:

¾ If the panel backlight is not working it may still be possible to just see some image on the display. ¾ A lack of image is most likely to be caused by incorrect connection, lack of power, failure to provide a signal or incorrect

graphic card settings.

Image position:

If it is impossible to position the image correctly, i.e. the image adjustment controls will not move the image far enough, then test using another graphics card. This situation can occur with a custom graphics card that is not close to standard timings or if something is in the graphics line that may be affecting the signal such as a signal splitter (please note that normally a signal splitter will not have any adverse effect).

Image appearance:

¾ A faulty panel can have blank lines, failed sections, flickering or flashing display ¾ Incorrect graphics card refresh rate, resolution or interlaced mode will probably cause the image to be the wrong size, to

scroll, flicker badly or possibly even no image.

¾ Incorrect jumper settings on the controller may cause everything from total failure to incorrect image. CAUTION: Do not

set the panel power input incorrectly.

¾ Sparkling on the display: faulty panel signal cable.

Backlight:

Items to check include: Power input, Controls, Inverter and Tubes generally in this order. If half the screen is dimmer than the other half:

¾ Check cabling for the inverter. ¾ For a specific backlight tube check the AC pins orientation (CAUTION: Never reverse any DC power pins).

Also: ¾ If adjusting brightness control has no effect the chances are that the VR rating or method of adjusting brightness is not

compatible or correctly connected to the inverter.

¾ If system does not power down when there is a loss of signal

Continued failure:

If unit after unit keeps failing consider and investigate whether you are short circuiting the equipment or doing something else seriously wrong.

Generally after common sense issues have been resolved we recommend step by step substitution of known working parts to isolate the problem.

Appendix IV – Auto Color Gain

The Auto Color Gain function is supported in the ARGB mode only and is designed to calibrate the controller to the incoming video signal. In order to calibrate correctly, the display must

be displaying an image containing both black and white data (see illustration below) when the functio n is used. The internal processor of the video controller chip will then execute a process to adjust the relative values of the RGB signals to achieve the best performance. The parameters of the corrected RGB values are then stored in the controller and are unaffected by the Reset Factory Defaults function.

Warning - If the Auto Color Gain is executed without an appropriate image being displayed, then the process will set incorrect values and the display colors will be distorted. If this occurs, then it can either be corrected by performing the process correctly or if this is not possible then the Reset Color Gain function can be used. This function will reset the stored RGB values to a set of approximate values.

Appendix V – Inverter Interface Board P/N 416040010-3

[OPERATE UNDER 12VDC POWER INPUT ENVIRONMENT]

The Inverter interface board provides interface to drive up the high current consumption panel inverter in excess of 3.5A. This board enables current of up to 8 Amps to be managed safely while retaining the capability for inverter dimming and management of the inverter enable signal according to VESA DPMS standards. Additionally, the inverter interface board provides over-voltage protection via a resettable fuse when the input voltage exceeds 13V and reverse polarity protection against accidental misconnection.
