PRODUCT FEATURES

169-VL Features

A professional LCM pattern test instrument — full-featured, well-protected and easy to operate

📺

Dual-Interface High-Speed Output

Up to 16-lane V-by-One (3840×2160/120Hz) or 4-channel LVDS (1920×1080/120Hz) — one instrument covers both mainstream interfaces.

🛡️

Quadruple Hardware Protection

All output signals have protection circuits; panel power features configurable over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current and no-load protection, preventing damage to the instrument and the panel under test.

🖼️

Rich Test Pattern Library

48+ built-in common test patterns (including 3 dynamic scrolling screens); unlimited external images via SD card; up to 16 patterns per module parameter set.

⚡

Instant On

Ready instantly at power-on — enters test mode immediately; 99 preset module parameter sets, so switching lines or panels means just switching a parameter number.

🎛️

Three Control Methods

Three control modules supported: remote control (optional), numeric keypad (default), mouse (optional); signal on/off and pattern switching need only 3 buttons.

🤖

Fixture Integration & Auto-Play

Supports fixture travel switches — press down to turn on the signal, lift to turn it off; test screens can auto-switch with independent per-image duration.

WHY 169-VL

169-VL vs TV Motherboard Pattern Testing

A full comparison of pattern-testing solutions for LCM production lines — professional instruments win across the board

Item169-VL Professional Signal GeneratorOrdinary TV Motherboard
Versatility ✓Purpose-built for LCM production-line pattern testing, compatible with all LVDS and V-by-One panels ✗One TV board only drives its matching panel — changing glass means changing the board
Reliability ✓All interface signals have protection circuits; T-CON power features over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current and no-load protection ✗No protection — easily damaged
Efficiency ✓Instant on at power-up, highly efficient ✗Must wait for the TV board to fully boot; some boot very slowly
Operability ✓Signal on/off and pattern switching with just 3 buttons ✗Must switch to the USB channel via remote first, then play USB images
Cost-Effectiveness ✓Designed service life of 5–10 years — better long-term value ✗Frequent damage or even scrapping — higher overall cost
Special Requirements ✓Independently developed — customization available for special panel-inspection processes ✗Cannot be met
Industry Trend ✓Major brand LCM manufacturers all use professional instruments for pattern testing —
Success Stories ✓Skyworth, Changhong, Innolux, AUO, Panda, BOE, TCL CSOT —

The Common Choice of Many Leading LCM Manufacturers

TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting

Quick ways to locate pattern-testing issues

  • Check that the correct cables are used;
  • Check that the correct power parameters and timing parameters are selected;
  • Turn on the output signal and check whether VCC current is normal — very low current or NCP usually indicates a cable error, or possibly wrong power parameters.
  • Check that cables and timing parameters are correct and that the signal generator resolution matches the panel;
  • LVDS signal: check that the JEIDA / VESA format selection is correct;
  • Check the bit-width selection: LVDS with 5 differential pairs per channel (including clock) is 8-bit, 6 pairs is 10-bit; V-by-One is usually 10-bit;
  • V-by-One signal: check the SECTION parameter (8-lane: 1SEC / 2SEC; 16-lane: 1SEC / 2SEC / 4SEC).
  • Option 1: Custom Cables — custom dedicated cables made to the LCM interface definition, connected directly;
  • Option 2: Custom Adapter Boards — custom adapter boards used with the LCM’s original cables;
  • Both are consumable solutions; consult us for customization based on your actual line situation.
