  • Page 4: Introduction

    This document defines the electromechanical parameters and operating characteristics for a 12’1” Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display (AMLCD) based product, hereafter referred to as the Monitor. It is intended for operation in high ambient light, outdoor environment. The Monitor has a scaleable video format capable of displaying a minimum of VGA (640 x 480) through XGA (1024 x 768) input resolution.
  • Page 5: Basic Construction

    Video Signal Connector The Monitor unit includes a chassis mounted 15-pin female mini D-Shell connector (AMP 748390-5 or equivalent) with socket contacts at the rear of the Monitor. It is shielded for electromagnetic interference (EMI) purposes. Refer to Section 4.1 for electrical connections.

    External horizontal and vertical image positioning control(s) are provided to accommodate for the undefined delay between sync and video data edge referred to as Front Porch / Back Porch in Figure 9. Title: Engineering Specification: 12.1-inch AMLCD Monitor Document Number: 023-0284-00...
  • Page 7: Environmental

    Reference to "room ambient" is interpreted as 20°C - 25°C [68°F -? 77°F] and applies throughout this specification unless otherwise noted. Excluding the exterior face temperature range of the Vandal Shield (Note 4), this Monitor will not be subjected to environments outside of the limits of Table 1.
  • Page 8: Altitude

    Altitude Maximum operating altitude is 3,000 meters [9,850 feet]. Maximum shipping and storage altitude is 12,000 meters [39,400 feet]. Mechanical Vibration and Shock Note: Tests performed with unpackaged Monitors are mounted in a Planar approved rigid retaining fixture. 3.4.1 Vibration...

  • Page 10: Video Signal Input Requirements

    The Video Signal Connector consists of fifteen (15) positions wired numerically and supplied attached to the Monitor as a chassis mounted connector per definitions listed in Table 2. The "NC" positions of this connector are not used for any purpose.
  • Page 11: Signal Functions

    This is necessary to provide a uniform user color change on the screen in response to a uniformly stepped analog input. The Monitor must be capable of resolving a minimum color range of 262,144 displayable colors (6 bit resolution for Red, Green and Blue). This interpolates to 64 shades of gray (or color) at the Red, Green, and Blue analog video inputs.

  • Page 13: Signal Quality

    The video signal source determines which type of display is connected to it based on the state of the Monitor Sense Lines. The Monitor will indicate to the source that it is a "color display" when Monitor Sense Line 1 (Pin 11) is physically connected to Signal Ground Reference (Pin 10) as defined by the wiring definitions of Table 2.
