User’s Manual ELI101-IPHW Technical Specifications Table 1. Technical Specifications Screen Size: 10.1 inches (diagonal) Display Technology: IPS a-Si TFT LCD Resolution: 1280 x 800 (WXGA) Brightness: 690 nits (typical) Contrast Ratio: 800:1 (typ) Aspect Ratio: 16:9 Interface Input Mode: HDMI/DVI Colors: 16.7M (24 bit) - Page 7 However, it is not designed to carry the weight of the entire unit (plus stress from cable pull) when the ELI101-IPHW is mounted in a flat or downward mounting configuration. It is critical that the end user provide some type of backside mounting support to carry the weight of the assembly and improve mounting stability and reliability.

ELI unit being used. On the ELI101-IPHW plug power into the (P2) connector. The ELI101-IPHW input power range is expanded to include +5 to 24V DC ± 5% (2.0A) for greater design flexibility. - Page 9 J6 connector (PCB terminal block - PTSM 0,5/ 2-2,5-H SMD WH R24 – 1814634) can be found at http://tinyurl.com/1814634. To verify that the ELI101-IPHW unit is correctly powered you may check the 12VDC input with a Fluke meter or scope by probing the +12V and GND contacts shown below. Please verify that the 12VDC is present, is within the +/- 5% tolerance and is free from excessive noise or AC ripple.

You can find out more on our website at http://www.teamfdi.com/edid/. Brightness Control ELI101-IPHW contains a Brightness Control potentiometer (VR1) on the backside of the board, see Figure 6. Using this pot, you can set the default “Factory” brightness of the LCD Backlight. Turning the pot fully clockwise results in maximum brightness of the display. - Page 11 User’s Manual ELI101-IPHW PWM Backlight Dimming Figure 7. Backlight Control To control the display backlight, the user should connect an externally generated Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal to J3 pin 2 along with a common ground to J3 pin 3. The frequency range for this signal is from 100Hz to 2KHz.
