Flex/LVDS Cables
(5 minutes)
There are three pairs of Formatter/Satellite Board cables (Flex style for SXGA+ or
HD2 engines and LVDS for HD engines), which run from the DMDs on the light
engine to the TCPD/HDPD. The pair of blue DMD cables is routed through the
Black cable bracket on the TCPD/HDPD, while the green and red DMD cables run
in between the light engine and lens mount to the TCPD/HDPD. It is
recommended that the Flex cables be replaced whenever the light engine is
replaced.
To replace any of the Flex cables, do the following:
1. Remove the top cover. See Top Cover for
instructions.
2. Remove the light engine ONLY
if the
Flex cables for the red DMD need to be
replaced. (60 minutes)
3. Flip the tab on the connector UP to
unlock and disconnect cable. (Figure 30.)
NOTE: The cable ends are routed
through a white support bracket at the
light engine. Use a small plastic tool to
reach in and unlock the connector, then
slide the cable out from the bracket.
When replacing a Flex style cables, insert it into the connector with the white stripe
facing the tabbed side of the connector that opens (see Figure 30.) Make sure to re-
route the blue DMD cables through the bracket on the TCPD and the red and green
cables along the lens mount to the light engine. Allow the cables to loosely loop
around components avoiding sharp changes in direction, which could cause the
cables to kink.
