Hi all

Well i got a small problem i used search and all that stuff but for some reason couldn’t find much but i am sure its been answered.

My problem is this i connected everything correctly i hope any ways

and everything has the power and it worked fine few times but for some reason when i was pecking everything up and making everything look nice, i finished all with that and turn the car on nothing happen i was like

but i looked at the OPUS and the green light is blinking and every 5 or 10 seconds the fan on the mobo starts up and stops its seems like there is no enough power to keep it going or something and the opus green light keeps blinking can some 1 help me with that.tnx

oh 1 more thing that i can curious is also i can hear a engine noise not to much just little bit but was wondering can you get rid of it complete and also i received with lilput VGA cable with usb plug but what is the usb plug for and do i need to plug it in the LILPut screen ?

sorry I don't know the answer to your first question because I am also a newbie. I actually don't even have a carputer yet. But anyway I think the usb cable goes from the LCD to the computer and that is what allows the touchscreen to work. Without the usb it's just a regular LCD.

guys guys guys please read the manual (RTFM) before you blow something up or

the usb plug on the lilliput lcd is not a usb plug it is the composite in to the monitor

plug that into a usb port at your peril and take pictures as I want to see the smoke on the mobo and screen

man i couldn’t find **** and believe me if i head manual i would but it seems like they don’t believe in sending 1 with the screen ? can you point me to manual and also what you saying if you would plug in the usb that is hooked on agp cable and if you plug that in the screen it will blow ?

So the usb plug that is hooked on agp connector goes in to the computer m I right on that 1?

check the cd that came with the screen

the manual is probably there

if not search this site or visit digitalww.com they probably have it

the setup is simple

vga in is connected via the round plug to another round plug that has a cable with a 15 pin vga connector on it, that takes care of that, if you have a touchscreen look for a little "offshoot" connector USB, that is for the touchscreen, the composite in are RCA connectors and they plug into the pseudo usb on the side of the screen, dont plug anything else in there other than the rca video in

Check your connections. If the power supply is blinking once every 3-4 sec. that means it's in stanby. Check if you have 12V on the yellow (blue in some cases) wire.
