    • Extended voltage, and efficient power supply available 1.4 Connecting to a PC The GLT240128 connects seamlessly to a PC and it is an excellent means of testing the functionality and uploading new fonts and bitmaps. For the Non-USB version, you will require a standard RS-232 9-pin serial cable such as the one pictured in Figure 7, as well as a modified 5V or 12V power adapter, depending...

  • Page 14: Communication Connectors

    2.1 Communication Connectors 2.1.1 Power/Data Connector for Non-USB modules only The Power/Data Connector provides a standard connector for powering the display module. The GLT240128 requires five volts for the standard display module, between nine to fifteen for the wide voltage (V) model, and between nine to thirty-five volts for the wide voltage with efficient power supply module (VPT).
  • Page 15: Usb Connector For Usb Modules Only

    2.1.2 USB Connector for USB modules only The USB Connector provides a standard connector for powering and communicating to the USB display module. As with the non-USB version, the GLT240128-USB requires five volts for the standard display module as per table 78.
  • Page 16: Touchpad Interface Connector

    2.2 Touchpad Interface Connector The GLT240128 provides a Touchpad Interface Connector which allows for the touchpad to be interfaced to the display. This connector should remain plugged in while the unit is in operation and should not be tampered with in any way.
  • Page 17: Power Through Db-9 Jumper

    In order to provide power through pin 9 of the DB-9 Connector you must place a solder jumper on the Power through DB-9 Jumper pictured in Figure 16 below. The GLT240128 allows all voltage models to use the power through DB-9 option, see table 78 for display module voltage requirements.
  • Page 18: Optional Usb Header For Usb Modules Only

    2.5 Optional USB Header for USB modules only The GLT240128 USB version has an optional four pin header for internal USB communications with host units. This provides the same communication lines as the regular header, albeit in a different form factor for greater customization.
  • Page 19: Filesystem Lock Jumper

    2.7 Filesystem Lock Jumper The Filesystem Lock Jumper allows you to lock the filesystem on the GLT240128 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 12 To lock the filesystem, solder a zero ohm resistor or use a solder jumper pictured in Figure 20 below.
  • Page 20: Manual Override

    2.8 Manual Override The Manual Override is provided to allow the GLT240128 to be 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 and you are no longer able to communicate with it.
  • Page 21: Troubleshooting

    • The last step will be to check the Power / Data Connector on the GLT240128. If the Power / Data Connector has become loose, or you are unable to resolve the issue, please contact Matrix Orbital see 15.6 on page 64 for contact information.
  • Page 22: The Display Module Is Communicating, However Text Cannot Be Displayed

    • First, ensure that you can communicate to the display. A good test is to use a PC, with MOGD# installed, to connect to the display. See Section 1.4 on page 4for setting up a PC to test the GLT240128.
  • Page 23: C Transaction Example

    (0101 0001), since the LSB has to be 1 for an I C master read. If we take a standard Phillips 7 bit address of $45 (100 0101), Matrix Orbital’s GLT24064 would describe this Phillips I C address as $8A (1000 1010). The read address would be $8B (1000 1011).
