General
A general guide to troubleshooting a flat panel display system it is worth considering the system as separate elements, such as:
Through step by step cross checking with instruction manuals and a process of elimination to isolate the problem it is usually
possible to clearly identify the problem area.
No image:
Image position:
Image appearance:
Backlight:
Items to check include: Power input, Controls, Inverter and Tubes generally in this order. If half the screen is dimmer than the
other half:
Also:
Continued failure:
Generally after common sense issues have been resolved we recommend step by step substitution of known working parts to
isolate the problem.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Controller (jumpers, PC settings)
Panel (controller, cabling, connection, PC settings)
Backlight (inverter, cabling, backlight tubes)
Cabling
Computer system (display settings, operating system)
If the panel backlight is not working it may still be possible to just see some image on the display.
A lack of image is most likely to be caused by incorrect connection, lack of power, failure to provide a signal or incorrect
graphic card settings.
If it is impossible to position the image correctly, ie the image adjustment controls will not move the image far enough, then
test using another graphics card. This situation can occur with a custom graphics card that is not close to standard timings
or if something is in the graphics line that may be affecting the signal such as a signal splitter (please note that normally a
signal splitter will not have any bad effect).
A faulty panel can have blank lines, failed sections, flickering or flashing display
Incorrect graphics card refresh rate, resolution or interlaced mode will probably cause the image to be the wrong size, to
scroll, flicker badly or possibly even no image.
Incorrect jumper settings on the controller may cause everything from total failure to incorrect image. CAUTION: Do not
set the panel power input incorrectly.
Sparkling on the display: faulty panel signal cable.
Check cabling for the inverter.
For a specific backlight tube check the AC pins orientation (CAUTION: never reverse any DC power pins).
If adjusting brightness control has no effect the chances are that the VR rating or method of adjusting brightness is not
compatible or correctly connected to the inverter.
If system does not power down when there is a loss of signal.
If unit after unit keeps failing consider and investigate whether you are short circuiting the equipment or doing something
else seriously wrong.
