V. Designing an Enclosure for your LT3200 The LT3200 open frame display will provide best in class transparent display performance, but the enclosure design is a critical contributor to the appearance and operation of the full display assembly. We encourage our customers to be creative in designing their presentation configuration using the LT3200. To achieve optimum results, we recommend the following: - Orientation: the display can be used in portrait, landscape or countertop (horizontal) mode.
VI. Connecting the Driver Box The LT3200 is shipped with the wiring bundle disconnected from the Driver Box so the free end of the bundle can be routed in the enclosure as part of the assembly process. This section describes how to connect the wiring bundle to the Driver Box. You will need a small (#1) Phillips screwdriver. Note: It is important to follow the instructions carefully and observe safe ESD practices, especially if the assembly is taking place away from a grounded workbench.
4- Locate the video connector in cable assembly as shown in photo 4 at right. 5- Orient the video plug as seen in Photo 5A. Insert the edge into its socket on the video board. Align the connector parallel to the socket and gently slide the connector into the socket (Photo 5B). Using steady pressure between thumb and fingernail of index finger, seat the connector. A properly inserted connector will have the backside of the connector located parallel to the socket.
7- Once the LED connector, the two ground connections, and the video connector have been attached, position the rubber grommet into the slot in the box as shown in Photo 7. 8- Position the lid over the lower half of the box as shown, making sure the tab in the lid (arrow in Photo 8) captures the grommet. 9- Refasten the four Phillips screws to secure the Driver Box cover. The assembled Driver Box is shown in Photo 9 at right.
VII. Presentation of Your Material using the LT3200 You should experiment with placement of the objects to be displayed in the LT3200 to optimize their appearance and interaction with your video content. You will find that the brightness of display box and the legibility of the screen content can be affected by the color of objects placed in the display box. For best results we suggest avoiding large areas of dark colors inside the display box.

Troubleshooting A properly-functioning LT3200 will show a “splash screen” when power is first applied. If a suitable video source is attached, the screen will then display whatever video image is being sent to the LT3200 shortly after the splash screen appears. Note that when power is applied you should also see light from the LEDs located around the perimeter of the AMLCD screen. When power is being supplied to the LT3200 power supply, the indicator light on the power brick will glow.
