Is your industrial monitor displaying a "No Signal," "Out of Range," or similar message, even though your computer or PLC is sending a video signal? ROC Industrial specializes in diagnosing and repairing input signal problems on industrial monitors and Panel PCs. We can quickly identify the source of the issue and restore your display to proper operation.
Understanding Input Signal Problems
Industrial monitors receive video signals from various sources, such as:
PLCs: Direct connection from a PLC's video output.
Industrial PCs/Panel PCs: Connection from a graphics card or integrated graphics controller.
Dedicated Video Controllers: Specialized controllers for video walls or other complex setups.
These signals are transmitted using various video interfaces:
VGA: An older analog standard.
DVI: A digital interface (DVI-D for digital, DVI-I for digital and analog).
HDMI: A common digital interface for high-definition video and audio.
DisplayPort: Another digital interface, often found on newer monitors.
Proprietary Interfaces: Some manufacturers use custom interfaces.
Common Causes of Input Signal Problems
Cable Problems:Damaged Cable: A physically damaged video cable (cuts, kinks, broken connectors).
Loose Cable: A loose connection at either the monitor or the source device.
Incorrect Cable Type: Using the wrong type of cable (e.g., trying to use a VGA cable for a DVI-only monitor).Source Device Issues:Faulty Graphics Card/Video Output: The graphics card or video output port on the source device (PLC, PC) is not working correctly.
Incorrect Resolution/Refresh Rate Settings: The source device is sending a signal that the monitor does not support.
Driver Problems: (For PCs) - Outdated or corrupted graphics drivers.Monitor Input Port Failure: The video input port on the monitor itself can fail.
Monitor Main Board Failure: Problems with the monitor's main board (video processing circuitry) can prevent it from recognizing the input signal.
Incorrect Input Selection: The monitor may be set to the wrong input source.
