1. Precautions and Safety Notices
1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This monitor is manufactured and tested on a ground principle that a user’s safety comes first. However,
improper used or installation may cause damage to the monitor as well as to the user.
WARNINGS:
This monitor should be operated only at the correct power sources indicated on the label on the rear of
the monitor. If you’re unsure of the power supply in you residence, consult your local dealer or Power
Company.
Use only the special power adapter that comes with this monitor for power input.
Do not try to repair the monitor by yourself, as it contains no user-serviceable parts. Only the qualified
technician can repair it.
Do not remove the monitor cabinet. There are high-voltage parts inside that may cause electric shock to
human bodies.
Stop using the monitor if the cabinet is damaged. Have it checked by a service technician.
Put your monitor only in a lean, cool, dry environment. If it gets wet, unplug the power cable immediately
and consult your closed dealer.
Always unplug the monitor before cleaning it. Clean the cabinet with a clean, dry cloth. Apply
non-ammonia based cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass screen.
Do not place heavy objects on the monitor or power cord.
2. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in this chassis have special safety visual inspections and the protection
afforded by them cannot necessarily be obtained by using replacement components rated for higher voltage,
wattage, etc. Before replacing any of these components read the parts list in this manual carefully. The use of
substitute replacement parts, which do not have the same safety characteristics as specified in the parts list, may
create shock, fire, or other hazards.
3. SERVICE NOTES
When replacing parts or circuit boards, clamp the lead wires around terminals before soldering.
Keep wires away from high voltage, high temperature components and sharp edges.
Keep wires in their original position so as to reduce interference.
Adjustment of this product please refers to the user’ manual.

4. Circuit Description
Electronic Circuit Theory
2.1 Switching Mode Power Supply
Switching Mode Power Supply
2.1.1 AC Current Input Circuit
P801 is a connector for connecting AC Power. F801 is a fuse to protect all the circuit. AC input voltage is from
90v to 264V. R820 and R821 joined between two inputting main circuit to prevent man from shock. L801 is
used to clear up low frequency wave. C801 and C806 are used to discharge the waves that L801 produced.
High frequency waves are damped by C801 and C806. D801 is a rectifier which composed of 4 build-in diodes,
it inverts AC to DC.
2.1.2 High Voltage to Low Voltage Control Circuit
C805 is used to smooth the wave from rectifier. IC802 is a highly integrated PWM controller which build-in
power MOSFET. When rectified DC high voltage is applied to the DRAIN pin during start-up, the MOSFET is
initially off, and the CONTROL pin capacitor is charged through a switched high voltage current source
connected internally between the DRAIN and CONTROL pins. When the CONTROL pin voltage Vc reaches
approximately 5.8V, the control circuitry is activated and the soft-start begins. The soft-start circuit gradually
increases the duty cycle of the MOSFET from zero to the maximum value over approximately 10ms. If no
external feedback/supply current is fed into the CONTROL pin by the end of the soft-start, the high voltage
current source is turned off and the CONTROL pin will start discharging in response to the supply current
drawn by the control circuitry.
Resistor R803, R807, R824 and R825 are for line over voltage shutdown(OV) and line under-voltage
detection(UV).
Resistors R801, R805, R822, R823 are for external current limit adjustment. And used to reduce the current
limit externally to a value close to the operating peak current of primary about 1.35A. The mean is power will
protected when the primary current over about 1.35A.
When PWM is turned off, the main current flow will be consumed through D804, and ZD802, This will
prevent MOSFET which built-in IC802 from being damaged under large current impulse and voltage spike.
D806 and C815 to provide internal Auxiliary current to CONTROL pin during normal operation. Otherwise,
error amplifier and feedback current input the CONTROL pin for duty cycle control.
2.1.3 DC_5V and DC_14V Output Circuit
For DC 5V, D805 is used to rectify the inducted current. R806 and C811 are used to store energy when current
is reversed. The parts including C814, C814, C822, C821, B801 and L803 are used to smooth the current
waves.
For DC 14V, D803 is used to rectify the inducted current. R802 and C802
2. 2 Inverter Circuit
2.2.1 Low voltage to high voltage circuit
14VDC provides the power for IC501; the control signals Brightness and ON/OFF come from I/F board.
ON/OFF signal connect to pin10 of IC501 and makes IC501 enable. Brightness signal connect to pin4 of
IC501 and regulates the panel brightness, R526, R529, C505 make up a network of delaying time circuit and
R523, R524 make up a divided voltage network, C504 is used to dump noise. The operation frequency is
