SyncMaster 710 vs acer v193w

[lordmmx]

Hi guys,

I have simple question. I have Samsung SyncMaster 710n and it's dying. I want to use powerboard from it inside another Acer monitor, that have dead powerboard and I can't get replacement board.

Basicaly, I want to replace board ILPI-077 rev. A with board from SyncMaster 710n. My question is, what is 13V cable for? and does DIM mean the same as Brightness?

this is powerboard from 710n


and this is board ILPI-077 from Acer


So I want to use board from 710n to power logicboard (or how is it called) of Acer. Is it enough to just mod cables to fit into logicboard or I need that 13V rail to power something???

Thank you for any help.

dim does mean the same as brightness BUT there are different ways of signaling it.
i would compare the invertor chip part numbers or their datasheets to see if the dim signal is compatable between them.

worse case, you could leave it unconnected because that usually puts it to max.

thank you, i will ignore brightness level, since i will use this screen in workshop and only at night.
