Connecting Your Display 

 

1.

   

Connect all cables to the computer first. This includes the VGA cable, and if the unit 

has a touch screen, the RS 232 serial touch screen connection. 

2.

   

After connecting the cables between the LCD monitor and the computer, plug 

supplied AC power cord into a suitable AC outlet then into the LCD. 

3.  Power on the display. The On/Off switch is located where the AC power cord enters 

the unit 

4.

   

If your computer is off, turn on your computer. 

5.  Your display should now operate as a normal computer display, displaying the 

computers BIOS screens and booting into Windows or other operating system. 

 
Note: 

If for any reason the display goes blank and/or displays “out of Range” or “No 

Input Signal” message on the screen,  your computer or video source may be putting out 
a signal that is incompatible with the FPM-170(-TS). If this happens, reboot the computer 
with the previous display and adjust the display settings to be within the FPM-170(-TS) 
specifications (see Appendix F). Below is are the most common reasons a display may 
not operate correctly: 
 
1.  The resolution is to high or low for the LCD. 
2.  The refresh rate is set to high. Refresh on an LCD is different than a CRT. Set the 

refresh to 60Hz. CRT’s need a high refresh rate to avoid flicker. The refresh rate has 
no impact on an LCD. 

3.  The power source is incorrect, or there is no power. Check if the rear LED is ON or 

blinking. If the LED is not lit, check to be sure there is power to the unit. 

4.  The unit is malfunctioning. If you believe this to be true, disconnect the video cable 

from the rear of the LCD and connect to a known good display. If the computer 
display is working satisfactory and the video is within the appropriate range, then 
contact AutomationDirect.com technical support.
