What are YOU using with your 15.4" projector, and why?
- A395a and A395b (0.5mm Groove Pitch)
- F330 and F220 (0.2 mm groove pitch)
- F550 (0.2 mm groove pitch, but longer FL)

I just wanna get started...

Do we have data sheet we can send off to kontron on the sharp WUXGA panel?

They want to see it. I think I saw one around here some time but I don't know where.

please email it to jeff AT computercowboy DOT com

I was thinking if anyone else has a different model panel they want to send in post up here so we can get organized.
I have mentioned the possibility of sending in multiple panels with diff model #'s

really want to send your panel from the US to Germany?

Anyway I have philips LP154WU1

This is what I'm talking about. nobody - ordinary human being - has the data sheet. winmate has it, and the firm also possible has from which carporw buys the analog wuxga controllers.

I would send it to Germany if that is what it took. I don't care the whole thing is an experiment anyway. I have almost 2 grand dumped into this project and it doesn't even do anything yet. What does it matter?
I have the x2gen as a test panel right now so I'm all good. WUXGA is a future thought at this point. The panel was only 2 bills and I can get it inusred.

The only way to make forward progress in life is take risks.

I've got the Sharp LQ154M1LW02

I'm guessing there is not much difference between it and your panel, computercowboy, but nonetheless I could send it if needed (so long as I got it back, of course

)

I appreciate this wery much.

I have paid $269 for the panel, $40 was the shipping and $62 was the customs tax. Even the panel can get broken during the shipment so i won't risk it isf it's not necessasry.

If jonjandran had the data sheet, then we could have a decent controller instead of the overpriced winmate. I feel winmate is not a chicken and won't give us the specs, because if so, nobody will buy a G2A

I'll see if Johnzo can offer a ltn106w2-L01...a number of us with those smaller-panels would like this-option.
[Any notion as to how-long they'd need hands-on with a panel?]
A datasheet for this board/chipset?
Any idea if it can 'flip'/rotate-image, such that we can determine light-direction through-panel -- when not sourcing from HT-PC?

The super decked out controller with component, vga, div (w/ HDCP), rca, etc. is $250
sounds like we have a deal.

I live in Northern MA and would be more than willing to go talk with them- just PM me.

I see in a later post that you have almost $2k into yours and haven't gotten to the point where it's doing anything -- GULP. That's what I want to avoid.

And I guess that the cost of the Fresnel lenses is pretty minuscule compared to the overall costs of the components. I could buy them all and see what works best now that I think about it... I'm at about $1100 myself.

Kontron has a neat feuture, called 'panel files'. With a serial cable (null modem) and an app, you can simply upload your panel's config to the board, and showtime

The name of the program is Kontron Configuration Workbench KCWB for short. >>CLICK<< If you have the data sheet even you can set up your controller from a PC.

The reason it is not done is because of me being lazy and having a short attention span.
when i couldn't get the whole thing done in one day I got lazy and put it in the attic. I was planning on busting it out this weekend. We shall see. I have a plog around here somewhere. Too lazy to go find it right now.

As for that other post, I have no idea how long it will take Kontron to make a BOIS if they have the pannel in hand. I don't really care either. They can keep the panel for 6 months if they have to. I don't need the 1080p setup until i have something to feed in there that is 1080p. For now my x2gen will do just fine.

I'm more excited about the aftermarket controller. Hopefully it will be able to scale to a 16:9 aspect ratio rather than the full resolution of the panel.

I want to get this thing going, now that I have the projector up and running I want more resolution. 720p is nice but I want the 1080p and I want it soon.

Do you have any documentation on this? A manual?

I've searched also and can't find anything. Is this a new display?

HapHazard but the 10.6" scene already has a genesis controller, aren't they? Anyhow.. You have the papers, so you can make the custom LVDS cable - you can buy a kontron, hook it up to COM1, and use KCWB to setup the controller for your panel. That's all - your mission is near to complete

However - each modern LCD panel supports DDC/EDID. These controller boards are having an MCU on chip. just vondering why these boards are not programmend in the way to read out the f*king EDID data from the panel and auto-configuring themselves. not a big deal...

edit: your panel don't do DDC - that's a pity, however you have everything to hook up kontron

Hi everybody,

I have been lurking here for a while but Ive never posted.

I am in Australia and have been in contact with a few controller board manufacturers. Kontron is one of them. I haven't got much to add but what I do have is a connection diagram for a LTD154EZ0S. Not sure if this includes everything needed to program the control board, but its a good start.

I can't seem to see an option to attach a file, so I can email it to anybody who's interested.

I have been in contact with a company that supply's "Digital View" products - specifically about the SVH-1920.

Digital View Products

They have said that the SVH-1920 is already equipped to run the LTD154EZ0S at WUXGA.
But it will cost $718 AUD and it doesn't have HDCP.

So if we can get the Kontron CRTtoLCD7 controller working with this datasheet, we will save alot of money and get HDCP.

Yeah, well this is the reply that I got from Kontron about doing it myself:

Hi Adam

Spoke to engineer, who by the way has his Bachelor of Computer Science and electronics, I am curious, what is your level of understanding electronics? He says very difficult and if you were to buy the board we could not offer support as the lcd is not supported with any Kontron interface.

Keep calm. I have MSc in electrical engineering and interfacing is pretty sure possible. look at this focument Just look at p14, JILI30 connector.
Just give them the data sheet, tell him to set up the JILI30 connector for your panel aaand bingo. What you have to make yourself is the LVDS cable...

Just give them the data sheet, tell him to set up the JILI30 connector for your panel aaand bingo. What you have to make yourself is the LVDS cable...

Umm setting up the JILI30 connector is an easy thing for them? and they will know what I am talking about?

And making the LVDS cable shouldnt be hard seeing as we have the pinouts yeah? just a pain cause its so small

So just send them the panel's data sheet and tell them you would like to connect it with the JILI30 connector. that's all. If you can't do the cable ask somebody to do it. For wiring i think the possible best one is a CAT6 STP patch cable. 3 -way cabling is enough. one for odd channel, one for even and one for carrying VDD/DDC

They said they have to program the software for it as well - is that what you mean by "connect it with the JILI30 connector"?

Okay. Just ask them wether they do it for you or not.

no, JILI30 is the terminal for your panel.

There is a RS232 terminal on that board. That can be used to program/download the config for your panel.

I have emailed him to ask if theres any chance of them programming the board for us. But he has previously said they do not make the software.

I was under the impression that the software for the board was already there - its just a matter of getting the right timings etc for our panels?

I got a reply,

He has given me a rate of 130.00 per hour which could take 1 or 2 day (having had previous experience with other laptop lcds there are no guarantees, sorry that’s from the engineer. He is working on a mobile computing system for a Multinational corp has been for a couple of months.

So yeah, sounds...expensive haha

hello guys, i am new here and my english isnt good, so please take easy with me ehhehe. I take a look at the screens and the lp154wu1 looks good, it has contrast ratio of 600:1 and response time of 16 ms, according to the catalogues of LG Philips (http://www.lgphilips-lcd.com/homeContain/jsp/eng/prd/prd300_j_e.jsp), but the number of colors is low, just 262k(6bit), and according to the wikipedia the human eye see above 10 million colors, so I want know if there is anyway to improve that.
I readed a document about hdr(http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~mmt/Papers/Siggraph.2004-HDR_Display.pdf), and i was thinking if its possible to use 2 lcd, so you multiply the contrast, in this case 600x600 = 360.000:1, you align 2 identical screens and remove the first polarizer, and the color filter from the second screen(but is clear that you need put the light that gets out of the first screen with the right polarization to go ahead), if it is possible it would be nice have a voltage multiplier to use just 1 controller board for the 2 lcds. Sorry for my bad english, and congratulations for all of you guys that made a lot of researches and a lot of cool thinks. Thank you!
