四 、 Installation interface sheet metal parts (R59-M2A02-K40) and interface copper pillars
(R59-M2A03-B00)
1、Screw the two connection copper pillars clockwise on the Interface sheet metal with hexagon socket
copper sleeve
2、Take the finished interface sheet metal parts as shown in the following figure to press the installation
direction on the main board, pay attention to check the interface should have conductive sponge. The
left and right screw holes are aligned to the main board corresponding to the screw holes
3、Take two tapping screws and use a screwdriver to lock the interface sheet metal parts on the main
board

Pay attention to plug tightly in place, pay attention to check the outside of the vibrator mirror FPC wire is
covered with a layer of conductive cloth, the optical engine R, G, B, PB lamp line should be a magnetic
ring
2、Fix the vibrator mirror wire on the DMD wire of the optical engine with the vibrator mirror conductive
cloth. Note that the connector end of the vibrator mirror wire should be reserved with a point of length
and should not be bent too tightly.
Arrange the light lines of R, G, B and PB, and the direction is shown in figure 5.3

2、Screw position as shown in figure 6.3, lock seven tapping screws. Take air duct rigid foam and stick air
duct rigid foam gum on the bonding surface. Align the cover on the left to protrude the bone, and glue it
to the optical engine. Note before installing the optical engine to check whether the main board 838
chip has been pasted with thermal conductive silicon pad(R74-7W03-003), if the optical engine is
repaired removed, should check whether thermal conductive silicon pad has been glued to the optical
engine 838 chip heat sink.

九、Fixed optical engine R, G, B, PB lamp wire, according to the wire color, red - green - blue - black
sequence through the line slot into the corresponding main board connector
Note that the connector should be inserted to the bottom, and the wires should be arranged after the
connector is inserted. The magnetic ring should be arranged in a word near the end of the cover wall.
Pay attention to plug as much as possible on the magnetic ring wire tension, to avoid too loose after the
plug.

2、Arrange the optical engine motor wire, mainboard-io board wire arrangement, focusing board-io
board wire arrangement, and the light coupling wire arrangement in line slot, and insert the
corresponding connector of IO board in turn, that is according to the principle from right to left. Pay
attention to the main board -IO board wire inserted after the connector black lock button down
3、Attach the fan and optical engine FPC conductive cloth to the fan and IO board, as shown in the figure
