Install SDVO flat cable onto carrier board (if required) Required items Step 6 Lift the locking mechanism on the nanoX-BASE SDVO input connector (CN30) and insert the SDVO flat cable. Insert the SDVO flat cable into nanoX-BASE SDVO input connector and press down on the locking mechanism Repeat for the SDVO output connector (CNX5).
2.4 DVI Display Interface Installation DVI Display using ADD2 DVI Adapter Card If you intend to use a DVI monitor with the ADD2 DVI Adapter Card, be sure to first install the SDVO flat cable as described above.
2.5 LVDS Output using HannStar Flat Panel Display To use the HannStar 10.1” LVDS flat panel display included with the nanoX-BASE Starter Kit, follow the instructions below. Install Flat Panel Display Required items Step 1 Set the nanoX-BASE Panel Power Jumper (JP3) is set to +3.
Install Flat Panel Display (cont'd) Required items Step 3 Connect the 34-pin female box header of the LVDS panel cable to CN6 of the nanoX-BASE (LVDS Output Connector) Step 9 Connect the 8-pin female box header of the LVDS panel cable to CN7 of the nanoX-BASE (Backlight Control Connector) Page 28 NanoX Starter Kit – Quick Start Guide
Using the Flat Panel Transfer Board Included with the nanoX Starter Kit is the Flat Panel Transfer Board (FPTB) which is intended for prototyping and verification of LVDS and TTL flat panel displays with COM Express systems. The FPTB is equipped with an LVDS-to-TTL converter to allow users to implement TTL displays with COM Express systems that support LVDS only. Onboard PWM circuitry supports backlight control for LVDS and TTL displays.
2.
Connect the Power Supply (cont'd) Required items Plug power cord into the power supply Connect the Keyboard and Mouse Plug keyboard and mouse connector into nanoX-BASE NanoX Starter Kit – Quick Start Guide Page 31
2.7 Powering Up the nanoX-BASE System To power up the nanoX-BASE system, follow the steps below. Powering Up the nanoX-BASE System Required items Press the Power Button SW1.
3 Using a TTL Flat Panel Display Included with the nanoX Starter Kit is the Flat Panel Transfer Board (FPTB) which is intended for prototyping and verification of LVDS and TTL flat panel displays with COM Express systems. The FPTB is equipped with an LVDS-to-TTL converter to allow users to implement TTL displays with COM Express systems that support LVDS only. Onboard PWM circuitry supports backlight control for LVDS and TTL displays.

3.3 Installation Jumper Settings Make sure the Backlight Voltage jumper (JP1) and Panel Voltage jumper (JP2) are correct for the display panel you are using. Set the LVDS/TTL Mode jumper (JP4) to TTL Output Active (short pins 1-2).Set the Backlight Control Mode jumper (JP5) to PWM or Voltage Level as appropriate for your display.
Connecting LVDS Input to FPTB Use the FPTB LVDS-to-LVDS cable (P/N 30-20449-0000) to connect the LVDS output connector on the nanoX-BASE (CN6) to the LVDS input connector on the FPTB (CN4).
TTL Output to Display Panel Make the appropriate cable to connect the TTL Output Connector (CN5) and Backlight Control Connector (CN8) on the FPTB to the target TTL display panel. FPTB Power Connector Connect the Floppy Drive power connector of your power supply to the FPTB Power Connector (CN1). Power Up the System Assemble the rest of your system as required and power it on. An example nanoX-BASE system with FPTB connected to a TTL display panel is shown below.
