LC 1140/2140 user manual

To set a panel to display a specific part of the video image, you set the x and y coordinates of the tile you 
want it to display:

• An LC 1140 panel will display that 25 x 25 pixel tile 

• An LC 2140 panel will display that 25 x 25 pixel tile plus the 25 x 25 pixel tile below it.

See Figure 12. Address setting is carried out on the panel’s DIP 
switch. The DIP switch has 12 pins that are numbered from the 
right:

• Pins 1 to 6 are used to select the tile position on the x axis.

• Pins 7 to 12 are used to select the tile position on the y axis.

Numbers are set on DIP switches in binary form (1 = 

0 0 0 0 0 1

2 = 

0 0 0 0 1 0

, 3 = 

0 0 0 0 1 1

, 4 = 

0 0 0 1 0 0

, etc.). You set the 

binary number for the x coordinate on pins 1 - 6 and set the binary 
number for the y coordinate on pins 7 - 12.

For example, to set the x coordinate 17 and the y coordinate 14 on 
a DIP switch, you must first convert these coordinates to binary 
numbers (17 = 

0 1 0 0 0 1

, 14 = 

0 0 1 1 1 0

), then set the dip switch 

pins as shown in Figure 13.
