Pre Installation: We are assuming that you are going to try the unit on a bench before you
install it in your control panel. If you are operating this unit from an AutomationDirect. com
computer, it has been preadjusted at the factory and should require little or no further adjust-
ment. If you are satisfied with the display leave it alone. If you are installing the touch driver,
see the Touch Screen Driver Quick Start Guide.
Place the unit face (screen) down on a clean smooth surface.
IMPORTANT: Attach the following cables to your PC FIRST. This will prevent the unit
from being tipped over if you pull on the cables.
Attach the following as described.
• Video: the High Density D15 Female Connector. (the heavier of the 2 cables).
• Touch: RS-232-D9 Female end to the PC, D9 Male end to the Monitor.
IMPORTANT: Note the Com port on the computer you are using for the touch
screen. This will be required during touch screen driver configuration.
• Plug the AC Power Cord into the display then into a standard power receptacle.
If the unit is not on, turn it on now. The power switch is located at the AC power connection on
the FPM-150. The fan should come on and you will see a “No Video” screen if the computer is
not running. After approximately 10 seconds, the unit will go into shutdown if there is no video
signal. The unit will turn itself back on once you power up your PC.
Running The Display:
At this time you can turn on your computer.
Your initial picture [from the computer] will normally be the computer POST information [looks
like DOS] and the computer will check its RAM.
The FPM-150 is capable of displaying any of several standard graphics modes. These are
what is referred to as VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600) or XGA (1024x768) video modes. As
your computer boots, you will see the standard Microsoft Windows “Splash” screens as you
boot into the operating system. Once the computer has completely booted into Windows, you
will want to adjust the screen.
Adjusting the screen is a very simple procedure and is outlined in the next section.

About LCD Monitors
What you gain by using an LCD monitor for your industrial display is the future of display
technology. CRTs although they have dropped in cost significantly, do not offer the
performance, reliability, and mounting options available with LCDs. LCD monitors consist
primarily of an LCD, video board and a backlight. The LCD determines to a large extent the
viewing angle, brightness and contrast. Beyond that it is the function of the video board,
which converts the analog RGB (Red, Green, Blue) signals from a standard video card to a
high quality, digital RGB that the LCD can display.
LCD monitors can can be set for one or more of the following resolutions:
VGA: 640 x480
SVGA: 800x600
XGA 1024 x 768
SXGA 1280 x1024
UXGA 1600x 1200
Note: The VGA acronym stands for Video Graphics Adapter. It is used to describe both the
most common type of display interface used by PC’s and lowest resolution setting for this
interface. Originally only the VGA [640x480] resolution was available on a VGA interface.
Today all of the above interfaces are available on a VGA interface, but not all monitors
support all resolutions. . The native resolution of the LCD is normally the maxium resolution
that the LCD can display, and is the resolution that the LCD will exhibit the best display
charastics Check the monitor specifications (Appendix C) for the resolutions supported by this
monitor.
Recently the video card has taken on a new role. It is the responsibility of this device to
"scale" a particular video resolution to the "native" resolution of the LCD. This enables a
computer set to output a VGA [640x480] resolution signal to be properly displayed on an
XGA [1024x768] LCD screen. Without the scaling engine, the displayed picture would be in
the center 1/3of the LCD. The scaling engine mathematically converts the 640x480 to
1024x768. This my sound simple but it is in fact a complex algorithm that adjusts for different
aspect ratios and pixel alignment, essentially smoothing text and graphics to produce a
picture that is pleasant to the eye.
All Automationdirect.com displays from 12.1" (800x600) to 18.1” (1280x1024) incorporate
scaling engines in the converter card.

Included Parts
Your LCD monitor package will consist of the primary components listed below.
Open shipping container and lay all components on a flat clean surface.
 FLI-150(-TS) LCD Monitor
 6 ft Video Cable
 6 Ft DC Power Cable
 6 ft RS232 Touch Interface Cable ( touch screen units only)
 10-32 Mounting Hardware. (For use with Panel Mount)
 Documentation and Driver CD ROM
Connecting Your Display
1. Connect all cables to the computer first. This includes the VGA cable, and if the unit
has a touch screen, the RS 232 serial touch screen connection.
2. After connecting the cables between the LCD monitor and the computer, connect DC
power (External power supply such AutomationDirect’s PS-MON is required). Turn
on the power.
4. If your computer is off, turn on your computer.
5. Your display should now operate as a normal computer display, displaying the
computers BIOS screens and booting into Windows or other operating system.
Note: If for any reason the display goes blank and/or displays “out of Range” or “No
Input Signal” message on the screen, your computer or video source may be putting out
a signal that is incompatible with the FLI-150(-TS). If this happens, reboot the computer
with the previous display and adjust the display settings to be within the FLI-150(-TS)
specifications (see Appendix C). Below is are the most common reasons a display may
not operate correctly:
1. The resolution is to high or low for the LCD.
2. The refresh rate is set to high. Refresh on an LCD is different than a CRT. Set the
refresh to 60Hz. CRT’s need a high refresh rate to avoid flicker. The refresh rate has
no impact on an LCD.
3. The power source is incorrect, or there is no power. Check if the rear LED is ON or
blinking. If the LED is not lit, check to be sure there is power to the unit.
4. The unit is malfunctioning. If you believe this to be true, disconnect the video cable
from the rear of the LCD and connect to a known good display. If the computer
display is working satisfactory and the video is within the appropriate range, then
contact AutomationDirect.com technical support.

Display Features
 The FLI-150(-TS) is capable of displaying 16M (24 Bit) colors in a continuous
spectrum. The high contrast LCD enhances the image with no geometric distortion.
 FLI-150(-TS) Series directly accepts an analog 3,4, or 5 wire RGB with separate H/V,
composit, or sync on green. This is the standard PC video signal.
 The FLI-150(-TS) Series is auto synchronous adjusting the display to the appropriate
input between VGA and SXGA (Note: XGA is the displays native mode, SXGA is
interpolated).
 The FLI 150(-TS) Series is supplied with a Anti-Glare Touch Screeen [TS models] or
an Anti-Glare impact window on non touch screen models.
 The FLI-150(-TS) Requires an external 12 VDC power supply such
AutomationDirect’s PS-MON is required.Turn on the power.
Adjusting the Display
The FLI-150 (-TS) Series display has an embedded microprocessor on the converter
card [the electronics that drive the LCD], and has been recently updated with a more
powerful chip set. In most cases the unit will require very little if any user intervention to
operate correctly. That is, produce a sharp, stable picture.
The micoprocessor in the display has the capability to adjust itself to the computer to
which it is attached. This auto-adjustment will take place when the unit is first installed
and connected to a computer, if the video input changes, or the user initates it. If the
picture is not satisfactory, the first step is to allow the unit to attempt to re-adjust itself to
your computer.
Located on the rear of the unit is a membrane keypad used for adjusting the display..
See figure 1 below:
Figure 1
Getting
Started
SelectMenu

Using the Auto-Adjust
The FLI-150(-TS) will attempt to adjust itself to your computers current video mode. If
the picture is stable, and centered vertically and horizontally the auto-adjustment is
complete. If however the picture is not stable, and centered vertically and horizontally
you can re-initate the auto adjustment. Once you have the unit displaying the resolution
you desire for your application do the following: Press and release the “Select” button on
the membrane. This will place the unit into a “Geometry Auto Adjust” mode. This
operation will adjust the picture so it is centered both vertically and horizontally on the
LCD screen. It will also make the necessary adjustments to the internal clock timing so
that the picture is stable (without any decernable pixel jitter).
After having completed this step you may wish to adjust the color balance. This
procedure adjusts for any imbalance in the Red, Green, and Blue levels from the video
cable or video card. This is accomplished using the LCDs OSD (On Screen Menu)
system.

Introduction to Touch Screens
Touch screen interfaces have become the standard interface in the past 5 years. They
are, rugged, reliable, extremely flexible and easier than ever to implement! The universal
acceptance of the Windows GUI [Graphical User Interface] along with the extensive use
of a mouse interface has significantly accelerated the use of a touch interface. Basically
think of your touch screen as if it were a mouse.
AutomationDirect.com touch systems are mouse emulators. By installing a software
driver and connecting to a serial port, the touch screen will support all the primary mouse
functions:
The FLI-150(-TS) touch screen interface, is a high resolution, analog resistive. Following
is a quick explanation of what all this means.
High Resolution: The touch screen resolution is 400 ppi [points per inch]
Analog Resistive: The actual touch glass is an analog device. Meaning there is a very
low voltage applied to the X and Y axis of the touch screen. This current is applied to
ITO [Iridium Tin Oxide] that is sputtered onto a polyester membrane. When you touch
the screen you are changing the resistance on both the X and Y axis, producing an
analog value that references a particular location.
This type of screen can be activated with a gloved finger or mechanical stylus.
The touch screen itself is connected to electronics [internal to the display unit] that
provide the Analog to Digital conversion. When the screen is touched, the electronics
convert the analog voltage to a digital value and add a "Mouse Click". This touch data is
sent out from the display serial port to the PC serial port where the touch driver presents
the data to the operating systems as if it were from a normal PC mouse. When the touch
is released the new XY location is sent along with a "Mouse Up Click".
The touch screen interface to the PC is RS-232, so the recommend maximum distance
from the PC is 50 feet., The driver and and interface have been tested to 50 Ft. using
high quality cables. High quaility cables and connectors are important, especially if field
connections are made. Poor quality cables will drastically reduce the performance of the
RS-232 interface. The touch driver default baud rate is 9600.
Touch Screen Setup and Configuration:
If the unit does not have a touch screen, your configuration is complete. If your display
is fitted with the optional touch screen interface, the following section will outline
installation and set up. This system requires no special software knowledge, and can be
installed and set up in minutes. The following section gives a detailed explanation of the
software setup and configuration
