WARNING

Do not apply voltage through pin 9 of the DB-9 connector

AND through the Power/Data Connector at the same time.

Power/Data Connector

The Power/Data Connector provides a standard connector for powering the display module. The LCD2041

requires five volts for the standard display module, between nine to fifteen for the wide voltage (V) and be-
tween nine to thirty-five volts for the wide voltage with efficient power supply module (VPT). The voltage is
applied through pins one and four of the four pin Power/Data connector. Pins two and three are reserved for
serial transmission, using either the RS-232/TTL or the I

2

C protocol, depending on what has been selected

by the Protocol Select Jumpers. Pins two and three may be reversed by changing the Legacy Connector
Jumpers
in order to be compatible with previous PCB revisions.
