roland td 20 lcd display factory

In their defense, all I had told them wasn"t working was the LCD and I said the backlight was working. I just had a really bad feeling about it anyway. I hadn"t tried to get sound out of the drums (don"t have my new kit yet, just have my cymbals from before I moved so I had to test the TD-20 with my CY-14c). Thanks though, I"ll probably take it into the local Roland certified shop today in Boise, fingers crossed. I"ll let you guys know what was wrong with it when they diagnose it, they have a week lead time before they"ll get to it at this shop.

With the arrival and testing of the modules, REVERSE ENGINEERING was started, that is, the whole process took several months, between reading the protocol and analyzing how it forms the screen. Once this protocol was completed, research began to solve the speed problem. Because in addition to having the speed of Roland’s protocol, it would still have the protocol and display speed that replaces it. To solve this timing and protocols fight we have a microcontroller in the middle of the road that does all the heavy lifting.

We tested it on 3 models and it proved to be 100% compatible with the original Display protocol. Of course, as it is not original, we have a processing time to convert Roland’s protocol to a new graphic display, so depending on the function it may sometimes present a small latency or delay, but this does not compromise or affect its operation.

As Roland’s original Display is 5V, we opted for a 3V3 Display. In other words, we have an excellent resistive isolation between the module board and the board of our new DisplayTD-120.

With this isolation from the voltage conversion, we work 100% isolated from the Roland processor. And we can be sure that if any electronic problem happens, the probability of it being our Display is extremely low.

Each OLED includes instructions, spare LCD ribbon cable, and spacers needed to mount the new OLED and for the power unit. All the OLED"s have been tested and work great.

Executing the Test mode on a TD-20 of system 1.xx while the TDW-20 is installed will delete the WAVE data stored in the TDW-20, making subsequent recovery

The system in TD-20 units of version 2.00 or later is not merely the successor of version 1.xx, but is a special system program for use in combination with the

We offer a ONE YEAR money back guarantee against manufacturing faults and defects, but only when the display has been professionally installed. A claim will only be valid when supported by an invoice or receipt of professional installation from a suitably qualified electronic engineering specialist. If in doubt, please ask us before installation.

A very pricey, but necessary item if your td12/20 display is no longer readable. In the Netherlands a good used TD12 now sells for 400 and a good td20 for 500 and the x for 600 euro. Since I paid 350 euro plus for the display it is still cheaper than a replacement, The display itself is great, looks similar like my TD30 display. Overall a good buy, but it would have been nice of the cost would be cheaper for these old types modules.

1 Tip: In the installation manual it´s recommended to use 2 white washers to space bracket away from the bezel (cover window), But then the my screws were to short to get into the thread. I didn´t use the washers then, and it worked out too without crashing the display into the window cover. Just don´t tighten those 2 screws too much...
