8, The professional version offers two screen design, which makes it much more user-friendly. Try not to touch the welding spots while the two screens are
working, to avoid white screen situation. If touch the welding spots by mistake and white screen appears , pls cut off the power supply and restart the card,
hen it will work normally again,.
The interface function of notebook PC (Optional)
The professional version of notebook Mainboard L! "ost ard had four-level "# design, which makes the signal more stable, and makes it able to work
ong time in a severe environment. the types of notebook " main board interfaces$ %&' Mini"Ie %(' Mini"I %)' L"

Mini PCI-E interface of Mainboard LCD Post Card

Mini "I-* is the interface that getting more and more popular among notebook ". The Mini "I-* interface is taking less space than the Mini "I. +ur
Mainboard L! "ost ard use following pins of Mini "I-* interface$ "I-8, "I -&, "I-&(, "I-&, "I-&/, "I-&0, "I-&1. urrently not all the
notebook producers support such pin definition standard, so not all the notebook main board would support such interface. 2fter series of test, we confirm
hat following notebook brands would support this interface. 2nd they are 3", Lenovo, 324**, 5I4, 2cer, 6u7itsu, Inventec, etc. The interface can not
work with the notebook main boards that are not supporting such interface. 6ollowing are some for the testing result for reference$ 3"$ / series,
ncluding T/ and other models9 1 series, including 2T8, 2T1, and other models. Lenovo$ :), :, L*, L*;, and other models 324**$ )&,)(

Toshiba and 3"
The LPC interfaces of Mainboard LCD Post Card
from left to right, the definition of our Mainboard L! "ost ard got this interface are$ "I&-L6=2M* >, "I(-L2!), "I)-L2!(, "I-L2!&, "I;-
L2!, "I/-?!, "I0-L=*4*T >, "I8-LL@, "I1-).). The interface needs fly line. Most models of the Lenovo Think"ad series has fly line
nterface on their main board. L" is the popular interface for different main boards.
6or main board of I#M A/, the L" interface is on the slot with number 5)1. The definitions are$ 2(-B L=*4*T >, 2)-B L6=2M* >, 2;-B LL@, 21-B
L2!), 2&-B L2!(, 2&& -B L2!&, 2&(-B L2!. 6or I#M T/ =/ main board, the L" interface in on the pin o. C(/. The definitions are$ 2&-B LL@,

connect the fly line with chip pin of the main board, which would reDuire very good 7ointing skill from the user. 6ollowing are the ways of fly line for
popular chips, such as "10;;&, "80;&, "80;1&, 384E(&1, :8)L1;!, T"2, ect.

he power supply and address havenFt been listed above, ?! and ).) power supply are optional for the users. %2ttention$ do not
connect the card with "I1-).) power supply, or else the Mainboard L! "ost ard would be permanently damaged' 2lso the user
could link the Mainboard L! "ost ard to the L" interface #I+4 ofthemainboardwith fly line, if the main board has #I+4 of
"L)( with L" interface.
The pin definitions of L" #I+4 are$ "I(-=4T >,

Attention:

&. This professional version has Table Look-up function and the diagnostic result will show on the screen. There would appear some
"+4T code while there are malfunction codes on the main board, so the 7udgment of whether the malefaction has been rightly
diognoticed could only be sure with the last Mainboard L! "ost ard %that is why some (-digit or  - digit card can not make proper
diagnostic'. :e suggest the users to press 5" and !+: to check the neGt and previous codes, and find out the reasons for
malfunction in the main board.
(. The interpretation for the codes F FandF 66 F
%&' F ForF 66 Fappearing after a series of codes means #I+4 self-check completed.
⑵ The #I+4 self-check would continue if the #I+4 circuit on the main board is functioning. F F2ndF 66 Fwould appear at last,
showing the user that self check has been completed, and will start guiding the system.
⑶ The F F,F 66 Fappearing right after the computer started means the main board is not working, pls check "5 or power supply.
). There are three kinds of conventional #I+4$ 2MI, 2ward, "hoeniG. The same code could be showing different kinds of meaning, so
he user of our Mainboard L! "ost ard must choose relative kind of #I+4 in the menu. 4ave the data after changing the setting.
. The type of #I+4 could be identified by main board menu or by the mark on the chip of main board #I+4, or check directly on the
screen if the main board could show that. +r plug out the =2M card, the #I+4 is 2MI type if it stops at F!&F, F!)F, or F!*F9 the #I+4 is
2:2=! type if it stops at F&F, F(F, F)F9 it is "hoeniG type if it stops at F 2 F , F # F, or F F.
;. 4ome of the "I slots would show only part of the codes, so we suggest changing the slot when failing in obtaining diagnostic
codes. Many of the Mainboard L! "ost ards on the market could show F( # Fcodes while using with high-end main boards , but our
card is able to obtain all the codes.
/. The diagnostic code would be F Fwhile =4T signal light and the L@ signal light of notebook " is off, so the test could not
continue, itFs possible that the main board of notebook " does not support the MII"I-* interface, pls use other interface to
continue the test.
0. If on the screen reads Funknown diagnostic code, pls check the parameters of main boardF, pls check the #I+4 setting first, try to
change the #I+4 setting. If ot 4olved the problem is after this, pls check the website http$ E E www.bioscentral.com for more support,
or <ou can contact us directly.
8, "ls check the appendiG& for the parameters of our latest version.
