Important Safety Notice
Product Announcement:
This product is certificated to meet RoHS Directive and Lead-Free produced definition. Using approved
critical components only is recommended when the situation to replace defective parts. Vender assumes no
liability express or implied, arising out of any unauthorized modification of design or replacing non-RoHS
parts. Service providers assume all liability.
Qualified Repairability:
Proper service and repair is important to the safe, reliable operation of all series products. The service
providers recommended by vender should being aware of notices listed in this service manual in order to
minimize the risk of personal injury when perform service procedures. Furthermore, the possible existed
improper repairing method may damage equipment or products. It is recommended that service engineers
should have repairing knowledge, experience, as well as appropriate product training per new model
before performing the service procedures.
NOTICE:
! To avoid electrical shocks, the products should be connect to an authorized power cord, and turn off the
master power switch each time before removing the AC power cord.
! To prevent the product away from water or explosed in extremely high humility environment.
! To ensure the continued reliability of this product, use only original manufacturer’s specified parts.
! To ensure following safety repairing behavior, put the replaced part on the components side of PWBA,
not solder side.
! To ensure using a proper screwdriver, follow the torque and force listed in assembly and
disassembly procedures to screw and unscrew screws.
! Using Lead-Free solder to well mounted the parts.
! The fusion point of Lead-Free solder requested in the degree of 220°C.

1. Product Specification
1.1 Scope:
LCD LM230WF3-S2E2
LM230WF3-S2E2 is a Color Active Matrix Liquid Crystal Display with an integral Light Emitting Diode (LED)
backlight system. The matrix employs a-Si Thin Film Transistor as the active element. It is a transmissive type
display operating in the normally white mode. It has a 23.0 inch diagonally measured active display area with Full
HD resolution (1080 vertical by 1920 horizontal pixel array) Each pixel is divided into Red, Green and Blue
sub-pixels or dots which are arranged in vertical stripes. Gray scale or the brightness of the sub-pixel color is
determined with
a 8-bit gray scale signal for each dot, thus, presenting a palette of more than 16,7M colors with
Advanced-FRC(Frame Rate Control). It has been designed to apply the interface method that enables low power,
high speed, low EMI. FPD Link or compatible must be used as a LVDS(Low Voltage Differential Signaling) chip. It is
intended to support applications where thin thickness, wide viewing angle, low power are critical factors and graphic
displays are important. In combination with the vertical arrangement of the sub-pixels, the LM230WF3-S2E2
characteristics provide an excellent flat panel display for office automation products such as monitors.

The LCD monitor will contain a main board and a key board which house the flat panel control logic,
brightness control logic and DDC. The adapter will provide AC to DC voltage to drive the main board chips
each voltage. The function key board is used for OSD control, monitor power ON/OFF and the LED indicator
for power status.
