ANEL INSTALLATION
Please follow this step by step procedure:
1.
Refer to the corresponding page of the flat panel manual for a correct wiring.
Have the corresponding MICROPORT manual available to check the LCD connec-
tor with the desired LCD- datasheet.
Connecting sheets are available in single sheets, which are organized in different
folders, sorted after LCD types.
2.
Disconnect the flat panel from the cable.
3.
Adjust the VEE voltage and
polarity
on the MICROSPACE product or external
voltage source (if needed).
4.
Measure the VEE voltage with a multimeter, to be sure that the voltage is correct
(if needed).
5.
Select the corresponding flatpanel BIOS on the MICROSPACE product.
Ask for other BIOS, if the correct one is not available.
For adaptations, we need a complete datasheet (no short form) of the display. Ask
DLAG for more details.
6.
Start the system with a VGA monitor connected and check if the correct flatpanel-
BIOS appears (first screen message).
Note, that some LCD- BIOS do not support CRT
and
LCD simultaneously.
7.
Measure again the VCC, VDD, VEE, +12V voltages on the matching flat panel
connector.
8.
Shut down the system.
9.
Connect the flat panel (backlight and data cable) now and start again.
10. If the flatpanel does not appear simultaneously with the VGA monitor, stop and
check the wiring.
11. If the screen is working on the Monitor and the LCD, readjust VEE voltage if nec-
essary.
12. Depending on the used ambient, cables are reacting like an antenna and the pic-
tures on the LCD- screen will might not be shown properly.
Improvments are given by shielding the cables, using ferrits, etc
13. If a long cable distance is required, then it is better to use our MSLVDS to elimi-
nate bad results. Details see MSLVDS manual.
