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.
