It is the responsibility of the developer, integrators or other user of this product to Ensure that all necessary and appropriate safety measures are taken. Obtain suitable regulatory approvals as may be required. Check power settings to all component parts before connection. Understand the operation and connectivity requirements of this controller. DISCLAIMER There is no implied or expressed warranty regarding this material. SYSTEM DESIGN A typical LCD based display system is likely to comprise the following: Summary LCD panel LCD controller card, ACG-1024 LCD connector board if necessary LCD signal cables Inverter for CCFT backlight if not built into LCD Inverter cable Function controls Function controls cable Status LED PC VGA analog in LVDS Board Only use with specific LCD Panel Digital View offers a range of accessories such as listed above, to make up complete display solution. ASSEMBLY NOTES This controller is designed for monitor and custom display projects using 1024x768, 800x600, 640x480 resolution TFT LCD’s support. The BIOS need to change to fit for XGA, SVGA, VGA panel respectively. TFT panels with a XGA, SVGA, VGA signal input. The following provides some guidelines for installation and preparation of finished display solution. Preparation Before proceeding it is important to familiarize yourself with the parts making up a system and the various connectors, mounting holes and general layout of the controller. As much as possible connectors have been labeled. Guides to connectors and mounting holes are shown in the following relevant sections. LCD Panel This controller is designed for typical TFT panels with 5V or 3.3V TTL or LVDS interface. For LVDS interface panel a separate add-on board is required. Due to the variation between manufacturers of signal timing and other panel characteristics factory setup and confirmation should be obtained before connecting to a panel. NOTE Check panel power jumper settings before connection NOTE This controller supports up to 8-bit per colour, for panels of lower bits eg 3 x 3 bit, 3 x 4 bit etc , connection of the panel signal high value should correspond to the controllers highest bit. For example for a 3 x 3 bit panel R2 on the panel should connect to R7 on the controller, in this case R0~4 on the controller will not be connected. For a 3 x 6 bit panel R5 on the panel should be connected to R7 on the controller. For a 3 x 8 bit panel R7 on the panel should be connected to R7 on the controller. Same for G & B. Controller card Handle the controller card with care as static charge may damage electronic components. LCD connector board Different makes and models of LCD panel require different panel signal connectors and different pin assignments. The connector board may not necessary for some Digital View cables that direct plug to the LCD panel. LCD signal cable In order to provide a clean signal it is recommended that LCD signal cables are no longer than 33cm 13 inches . If loose wire cabling is utilized these can be made into a harness with cable ties. Care should be taken when placing the cables to avoid signal interference. Additionally it may be necessary in some systems to add ferrite cores to the cables to minimize signal noise. Inverter This will be required for the backlight of an LCD, some LCD panels have an inverter built in. As panels may have 1 or more backlight tubes and the power requirements for different panel models backlights may vary it is important to match the inverter in order to obtain optimum performance. See Application notes for more information on connection. Inverter Cables Different inverter models require different cables and different pin assignment. Make sure correct cable pin out to match the inverter. Using wrong cable pin out may damage the inverter. Function Controls The following section ‘Operation’ discusses the controls required and the section ‘Connectors, jumpers & pinouts’ provides the detail. The controls are minimal for ease of use On/Off, Brightness depends on inverter , OSD 4 momentary buttons . Function controls cable The cables to the function switches should be of suitable quality and length so that impedance does not affect performance. Generally lengths up to 1 metre 3 feet should be acceptable. Status LED The pin direction of the LED should be corrected for right colour indication. Red colour stands for standby. Green colour stands for signal on. It is an optional part only, can be unconnected. Analog VGA Input Cable As this may affect regulatory emission test results and the quality of the signal to the controller, a suitably shielded cable should be utilized. Power Input 12V DC is required, this should be a regulated supply. Although the controller provides power regulation for the LCD power this does not relate to the power supplied to the backlight inverter. If an unregulated power supply is provided to an inverter any fluctuations in power may affect operation, performance and lifetime of the inverter and or backlight tubes. Power Safety Note that although only 12VDC is supplied as ‘power-in’ a backlight inverter for panel backlighting produces significantly higher voltages the inverter does not connect to the ground plane . We strongly advise appropriate insulation for all circuitry. EMI Shielding will be required for passing certain regulatory emissions tests. Also the choice of external Controller to PC signal cable and power supply can affect the result. Ground The various PCB mounting holes are connected to the ground plane. Servicing The controller is not user serviceable or repairable. Warranty does not cover user error in connecting up to the controller and is invalidated by unauthorized modification or repairs. Controller Mounting It is recommended that a clearance of at least 10mm is provided above and 5mm below the controller when mounted. Additionally consideration should be given to: Electrical insulation Grounding. EMI shielding. Cable management. Note It is important to keep panel signal cables apart from the inverter & backlight cables to prevent signal interface. Heat & ventilation Heat generated from other sources, for example the backlight of a very high brightness panel may generate significant heat which could adversely affect the controller. Other issues that may affect safety or performance. PC Graphics Output A few guidelines Signal quality is very important, if there is noise or instability in the PC graphics output this may result in visible noise on the display. Vertical refresh rate should be set to 60Hz preferable. Non-interlaced is required. IMPORTANT Please read the Application Notes section for more information. CONNECTION & OPERATION CAUTION Never connect or disconnect parts of the display system when the system is powered up as this may cause serious damage. CONNECTION Connection and usage is quite straight forward it is useful to have the relevant connection diagram available at this time :
