Re: [k5synth] Display swap with T6963C ?

2019-09-14 by Mo Morgan

Can you show the lcd with the cable attached?     On Friday, September 13, 2019, 04:54:02 p.m. EDT, Judas Hirn nebelfuerst@... [k5synth] <k5synth@yahoogroups.com> wrote:  
 
     

  Thank you all for your feedback. I will try this weekend to get the lcd working. There was no presoldered cable. I measured all 20 pins to be exactly the same like the original. There is a capacitor labeled 220 on the old display, which i didn't transfer.

     Did you verify the model of lcd was directly swappable with your lcd?  t6963c doesn't make it directly compatible there could be some additional electronics you might  have to add. Also if your internal battery is dead you would get blank text

It is the right controller. YMMV as to the layout of the plug and configuration of the display and connector. You might have to tweak the contrast, twist the cable, or set a cable bridge to change the font size.  Time for experiments - but there will be some setting where it works.

As my backlight is dead, I tried to avoid disassembling the LCD by buying a replacement LCD.
 
I read somewhere, that the type should be compatible with T6963C.
 
So I bought this one:

I connected everything except the 100V. The display became black, without any letters visible.
 
Did anyone replace the complete LCD yet ?
