    Similarly, in order to change the display to TTL mode, simply remove the zero ohm resistors from the 232 or I C jumpers and solder them to the TTL jumpers. Figure 12: Protocol-Select-Jumpers Matrix Orbital GLK12232-25-SM...
  • Page 15: Keypad Interface Connector

    2.3 Keypad Interface Connector The GLK12232-25-SM provides a Keypad Interface Connector which allows for up to a five by five matrix style keypad to be directly connected to the display module. Key presses are generated, when a short is detected between a row and a column. When a key press is generated a character, which is associated with the particular key press, is automatically sent on the Tx communication line.

    (EMF) which will be generated. 2.5 Manual Override The Manual Override is provided to allow the GLK12232-25-SM to be temporarily reset to some of the factory defaults. This can be particularly helpful if the display module has been set to an unknown baud rate or I C Slave Address and you are no longer able to communicate with it.
  • Page 17: Filesystem Lock Jumper

    2.6 Filesystem Lock Jumper The Filesystem Lock Jumper allows you to lock the filesystem on the GLK12232-25-SM so that no fonts or bitmaps can be either written or deleted from the on board memory. This feature is useful in order to protect data integrity of production units, if protection of other settings is required see Section 13 To lock the filesystem, solder a zero ohm resistor or use a solder jumper pictured in Figure 16 below.
  • Page 18: Troubleshooting

    • The last step will be to check the Power / Data Connector on the GLK12232-25-SM. If the Power / Data Connector has become loose, or you are unable to resolve the issue, please contact Matrix Orbital see 16.6 on page 64 for contact information.

    • Second, ensure that the Filesystem Lock Jumper has not been set. See Section 2.6 on page 11. • Third, please ensure that the display module’s memory is not full. The GLK12232-25-SM has 16 Kb of memory for fonts and bitmaps.
