#SCREEN SEPARABLE CONNECTOR

[jiunengcable]

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN 12/20(24)KV 630A SCREEN SEPARABLE CONNECTOR AND SCREENED SEPARABLE CONNECTOR

The distinction between a 12/20(24)kV 630A screen separable connector and a screened separable connector lies in their specific designs and functionalities, both of which are critical components in medium voltage power distribution systems.

A 12/20(24)kV 630A screen separable connector refers to a connector designed for use with cables of voltage ratings 12kV and 20kV, with potential suitability for voltages up to 24kV. This type of connector is specifically equipped to provide a secure and screened connection between cables, ensuring efficient power transmission while effectively containing the electric field within the connector. It often incorporates features such as silicone rubber insulation and shielding to prevent electrical interference and enhance safety in medium voltage applications.

On the other hand, a screened separable connector is a broader term encompassing connectors designed with a focus on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electrical shielding. These connectors are equipped with shielding layers or screens that minimize electromagnetic interference and reduce the risk of signal disruptions or noise propagation. Screened separable connectors are particularly valuable in environments where sensitive equipment or systems may be affected by electromagnetic emissions from power cables.

The choice between these connectors depends on the specific needs of the power distribution system. A 12/20(24)kV 630A screen separable connector is ideal when the primary concern is maintaining the integrity of the cable connection itself, ensuring efficient power transfer while containing electric fields. On the other hand, a screened separable connector is advantageous when electromagnetic compatibility is paramount, as it helps mitigate electromagnetic interference that could impact adjacent systems or equipment.

Hello I recently downloaded "Otis camera tools" for DAI and I was wondering if u could assist me with it, for some reason when I try to use the "IGCS CONNECTOR" dof doesn't activate properly, I click to render the picture but it shakes around on the screen and doesn't do anything ^^' I've never used mods like this so idk what I'm doing sorry if this isn't what u usually help with

Hi anon,

IGCSDOF doesn't work like a traditional DoF shader. It takes a little getting used to.

I'm guessing you've read the guide on Frans' website about IGCSDOF? So you should understand the basics from there. Make sure you have the companion IGCSDOF.fx shader activated in your load order. You want it to be at the bottom of your load order. The only thing below it should be film grain.

Basically what happens is:

choose whether you want fast or classic mode (if you're using TAA/DLAA/DLSS/FSR you'll want to use classic mode) and choose the number of frames to wait (for classic you'll probably want 4-5 to be safe, for fast you'll likely want 2 but you may need to experiment to see which produces the sharpest in-focus results)

decide what you want to be in focus, and turn on the magnifying box and position it over that part of the image

move the focus slider until the double images overlay each other perfectly and sharply in the area you want to be in focus

move the intensity slider (above the focus slider) until the part of the image you want to be blurred has its double images a distance away from each other - the further apart they are the more blurred it will be (this is the hardest part to get used to, but you'll quickly learn what you need to aim for)

readjust the focus slider if it became slightly misaligned when you adjusted the intensity

make any adjustments to quality and bokeh shapes (if you're making a test render to check the bokeh/blur intensity, set the quality to low at first so it renders quickly, and then change it to higher once you're happy)

start the rendering and wait for it to finish

take your shot

end the session

Depending on the mode (fast or classic) and quality you chose, the number of frames you wait, and the fps of your game, the rendering part can take anywhere from a few seconds to several long minutes. That's completely normal.

While it's rendering, it takes hundreds of separate temporary shots from different angles. This is why it looks like it's moving around on the screen. It then blends all those shots together into one final one, and that's when you take your picture.

It is complicated and confusing the first few times you do it, but once you've practiced a bit it'll become a quick and easy process. The hardest part is being patient while waiting for the render to complete. I've waited over 20 minutes before. It's totally worth it.

CST826 touchscreen support for 2.1" Round TFT Display

Our cute 2.1" round 480x480 TFT display has a CST826 capacitive touchscreen overlay - different than the other screens that all have Focaltech FT6336U or similar. Thanks to MakerMelissa we now have support in both Arduino and CircuitPython! We also got a version of our 4" 720x720 display with capacitive touch. Unfortunately this one doesn't have the same 'integrated' style where the CTP pads go through the 40-pin connector, bot rather they're on a separate 6-pin 0.5mm pitch tail. Still, it's worth the effort, so we'll make a lil breakout for the touch connector so you can plug it into the QT port.

Anatomy of a Microscope

I. Scope —

Perceptor’s scope has many different functions aside from the simple functionality of magnification. It functions as an Electron Microscope, laser imaging, and thermal imaging. His scope is directly connected to his nerve and optical net, functioning, essentially, as a third eye. He is able to disconnect it via connectors attached to his sensory net, however the process is arduous and requires nerve suppressants.

His scope is incredibly sensitive, similar to how an eyelid is, and is a No Touch Zone, no matter who you are.

II. Stabilizers —

The stabilizers on his forearms originally functioned as stabilizers for his scope. However after his near death experience he modified them so they could stabilize his entire arms. Functionally, his alt mode is useless for anyone else to use because of this. (Something he much prefers.)

Now, however, he completely removed their external component and they're stored entirely under his armor for internal manual control.

III. Tactile Sensors —

Perceptor has highly specialized tactile sensors in his fingers, meant for deconstructing the composition of any object on an atomic level. This was useful for when he was a metallurgist. Aside from his fingers, his crest is similarly sensitive. He can detect atmospheric changes, meant to circumvent any changes that might tamper with his scans due the atmosphere he’s in (or without.)

IV. Specialized Needles

—

The tips of Perceptor’s fingers can fold back revealing needles that also function as clippers. These were personal modifications he made when he acted as something of a medic for the Wreckers. He's kept these, and still uses them for particularly small specimens, though not as often.

V. Universal Emulator —

Perceptor has a universal emulator: what this means is that he has the unique ability of interfacing with any technology and acting as the admin of said tech. Hacking is very easy for him because of this, but he doesn't give it much use outside of situations that call for it. If removed his consciousness is transferred to it while his body remains dormant. As long as he isn't separated from his body for long he'll stay alive. After a certain point he’ll deteriorate and his body will slip into an irreversible coma. It acts as something of a secondary brain module, which is why he's able to consume so much information at once.

His emulator is located next to his fuel tank in his torso, think where the spleen would be in a human.

VI. Data Cables —

Modern microscopes, especially electron microscopes can connect to screens, and the data is often transferred to databases so other scientists can parse the information. I think it'd make sense that he'd have data cables. Before the war, microscopes were often paired up with computers because of this. There is often symbiotic relationships between microscopes and computers.

Like all Microscopes, Perceptor has data cables of his own. They're located under his backplates. He doesn't tend to use them much, however, as they have a strange interaction with his Universal Emulator.

Since his Emulator basically functions as a self preservation mechanic, when he hooks up to something with his cables an EMP is set off in. He has to go through a Process to sidestep the natural reaction and he doesn't like bothering with it. It wouldn't be that way if not for the early experiments Airies did when he was like Just Born, so it's more a result of The Horrors than his emulator.

Simultaneously, he cannot help but act as a sort of... trojan malware with them, uploading much of his own subroutines into whatever system he's connected to. This one is a direct result of his emulator.

VII. Weight Distribution System —

In order to counteract the weight of his scope and all that goes with it, he's got a complex system of weights and pullies throughout his body that, when in root mode, make his left side heavier (since his scope is on the right side) so he stays balanced, and when he transforms those weights even out.

iPhone Screen Not Responding After Drop? Fix Guide

Accidentally dropped your iPhone and now the screen isn’t responding? You’re not alone. One sudden impact can leave your iPhone display unresponsive, glitchy, or completely black. Whether it’s a minor crack or no visible damage at all, a fall can affect internal components, leading to frustrating touch issues. Fortunately, not all hope is lost. With the right guidance, you can figure out what’s causing the issue and how to fix it — either yourself or with professional help. This guide walks you through the latest solutions to get your iPhone screen working again after a drop.

Why Your iPhone Screen Becomes Unresponsive After a Drop

Even when the screen looks fine externally, internal damage can affect the digitizer — the part that controls touch sensitivity. Sometimes, the fall disconnects internal components or slightly shifts the screen from its housing. Other times, the impact damages the LCD or OLED panel. Temperature changes, moisture exposure, and weakened adhesives can also worsen post-drop conditions, causing delayed failures.

The First Things You Should Check Right Away

When your screen becomes unresponsive, begin by inspecting the iPhone closely. Check for cracks along the edges, signs of separation between the screen and the frame, and any discoloration or flickering. These subtle signs often point to damage beyond the glass. If the iPhone turns on but doesn’t register touch, the digitizer is likely damaged. If the screen is black but the phone still vibrates or rings, you’re probably dealing with display failure.

Force Restart Might Bring It Back Temporarily

A force restart is a simple but effective step you should try first. It helps clear temporary glitches that may cause the screen to stop responding. Depending on your iPhone model, the restart sequence may vary, but it typically involves pressing the volume and side buttons in a specific order. While it won’t fix hardware damage, this can sometimes restore limited functionality long enough to back up your data or finish important tasks.

Try Connecting to a Computer for Clues

If your screen is completely black or frozen, connect the iPhone to a Mac or PC using a Lightning cable. If iTunes or Finder recognizes the device, that confirms it’s still functioning internally. You might even be able to initiate a backup or access important files. If the phone isn’t recognized, the drop may have damaged not just the display, but deeper internal components such as the logic board or power circuits.

External Damage Isn’t Always Visible

One of the trickiest parts of post-drop iPhone issues is that not all damage is obvious. Micro-fractures in the display, invisible separation between the screen and the motherboard, or pressure damage can all lead to a non-responsive screen. Even tiny dents on the frame can affect how the screen sits and functions. Just because there’s no crack doesn’t mean your phone escaped unharmed.

DIY Repair Options You Might Consider

If you’re confident with tech, you might consider a DIY screen replacement. This involves ordering a high-quality replacement screen, opening the device using precision tools, and swapping the damaged part. However, this can void any warranty and risks damaging other delicate components if done improperly. Still, it’s a lower-cost option for those comfortable with electronics repair and willing to follow step-by-step tutorials.

Why a Professional Diagnosis Is Worth It

A technician can open your iPhone and run a full diagnostic to determine whether the issue lies with the screen, the connectors, or something deeper like the motherboard. A proper inspection saves time and money by identifying the exact cause, which DIY attempts often overlook. In many cases, simply reconnecting or replacing a flex cable inside the phone resolves the issue — no full screen replacement needed.

Avoid Cheap Screen Replacements That Cause More Issues

Not all replacement screens are created equal. Low-quality parts may look the same but lack touch sensitivity, color accuracy, and durability. Worse, they can interfere with Face ID or True Tone features. Always choose premium-grade parts if you're replacing the screen. If you're using an iPhone Repair service in North Miami, confirm they use genuine or OEM-quality components backed by a warranty.

Back Up Your iPhone While You Still Can

If your screen intermittently works or is still responsive in some areas, use this window to back up your data. Sync to iCloud, transfer important photos, and update your settings. If repairs require a reset or replacement of the logic board, you risk losing everything. Having a fresh backup ensures peace of mind before moving forward with a fix.

When It’s Time to Replace Instead of Repair

Sometimes, the cost of replacing the screen — especially for newer models — approaches the price of a refurbished or slightly older iPhone. If additional damage like frame bending or internal water exposure is discovered, replacing the device might be the smarter financial move. Always compare repair costs with the current resale value of your iPhone before deciding.

Protect Your Phone After It’s Fixed

After getting your iPhone repaired, invest in a high-quality case and tempered glass screen protector. These small investments can prevent future screen failures. Also, avoid using your phone in extreme conditions like excessive heat or cold, which can compromise the new screen adhesive and cause premature failures after a repair.

Trusted Technicians Can Make All the Difference

Experience matters when it comes to iPhone screen repairs. A trained technician knows how to avoid static discharge, secure internal connectors, and test your phone for additional unseen damage. Whether it's reseating a flex cable or recalibrating the display, professionals have the tools and know-how that DIY kits don’t provide.

If your iPhone has a cracked screen, doesn’t hold a charge, or won’t turn on, we can help. At our Mobile Xpert North Miami center, we offer fast, professional repairs for every iPhone model — from iPhone 6 to iPhone 15 Pro. Our certified technicians use top-tier parts to return your device to like-new condition with reliable results.

We handle everything from shattered displays and battery issues to charging port damage, liquid exposure, and software glitches. Every repair includes a diagnostic check, gentle care, and warranty coverage. Visit our North Miami location or book a pickup today to get your iPhone restored quickly and affordably.

Digitizer fixed! This is a Kindle Fire 8, gen. 10.

Infodump 👇

I found out that with these touch screens, the lcd gives the image and the digitizer is the glass that goes on top that controls the touchscreen capabilities. In this case, the cracks were on the top digitizer part, but the lcd screen was still working. After covering the cracked glass with tape, I used the heat gun to soften the adhesive around the edge of the device holding those two layers together. Most of the work in this type of repair is in separating the two parts without damaging the lcd underneath and creating a huge mess of glass, but I found that ifixit has tutorials for almost everything, and it gave me some good tips, like checking to make sure the magnets on the casing did not accidentally migrate to the digitizer frame, and really highlighting where the ribbon connector to the digitizer was, as well as including pictures of how to disconnect stuff from the motherboard. I already had some tools, and the replacement screen ($20) came with tools as well, but I needed add some 3m double sided foam tape ($7) to attach the new digitizer to the lcd screen.

I destroyed a cricut mat with the heat gun, so I will likely add a silicone work mat and some new picks next time I order a repair part from ifixit, but as far as entertaining me for a couple hours this was great enrichment! For reference, a new screen (digitizer and LCD) is about $50 for this model. A new kindle replacement? This kodel runs at $100. I would much rather repair than throw away. Electronic waste is a terrible thing.

How Do HDMI Cables Transform Your Viewing and Listening Experience?

In today’s hyper-connected digital world, HDMI cables play a crucial role in simplifying and enhancing how we experience audio and video. Whether you're setting up a home cinema, streaming your favourite shows, or connecting a console to your monitor, the humble HDMI cable is the bridge that powers the experience. But what makes HDMI cables so important, and how do they compare with other connection types like RCA cables, optical cables, and AV cables?

This blog explores the hidden power behind HDMI cables, their variations, and why they’re the go-to standard for modern multimedia applications.

What Exactly Are HDMI Cables?

HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a digital cable standard that transmits both video and audio signals through a single interface. This reduces clutter, improves quality, and eliminates the need for multiple separate cables. With advancements in display and sound technologies, HDMI has kept pace by supporting ultra-high resolutions and immersive sound formats.

HDMI cables transmit uncompressed digital video and audio signals

They support resolutions up to 10K depending on the version

Newer models include features like HDR, dynamic refresh rates, and enhanced audio return

They simplify installations by replacing multiple analog connections

Unlike older analog systems, HDMI ensures consistency in output quality from source to display, making it ideal for high-definition and 4K content.

How Do HDMI Cables Compare to RCA, Optical, and AV Cables?

It’s useful to understand what HDMI replaced. Traditional setups once relied on several analog cables, each serving a separate function. Let’s examine how HDMI compares to older alternatives.

RCA cables use separate connectors for video and stereo audio, and the quality suffers over longer distances

Separating the second stage fuel tank into it's own file Pt1:

I opened up the full rocket model file and saved it as a new file while I remember to. Just like I did with the previous models. I named the new file "Fuel tank 3".

Here, I selected the rest of the meshes I didn't need and pressed 'Delete' to delete them.

From there, I applied the 'Smooth by Angle' modifier like I did with the other models.

Next, I clicked onto the 'Shading' window and changed the 'Shader Type' from 'Object' to 'World'.

Like the I did with shading settings of the files of the previous models that I used from the full rocket file, I added a 'Light Path', 'Mix Shader', and a second 'Background' box to connect together. I did this so I could change the background colour without effecting the model visually.

I copied and pasted the same hexadecimal colour code that I keep using for the background in the files of my other models. The code is '#0086FFFF'.

When I switched back to the 'Layout' window. I jumped straight into 'Edit Mode' to give the top and bottom of the mesh a face. I pressed 'Alt' + 'LMB' to select all the vertices on the top of the mesh. I then pressed 'F' to fill the gap with a face.

I did the same at the bottom of the mesh.

However, there was an issue. The face at the bottom was black, which suggests a lighting problem. I looked it up on Google to see what was specifically the problem.

I tried to recalculate the normals of the mesh. I entered 'Edit Mode', and pressed 'A' to select the whole mesh. I then pressed 'Ctrl' + 'N'. The problem was that when I pressed 'Ctrl' + 'N', It came up with the option to create a new file. That obviously wasn't what I wanted.

I looked up how to recalculate the normals more specifically on Google. According to this result, I need to press 'Shift' + 'N', not 'Ctrl' + 'N'.

I tried again by pressing 'Shift' + 'N'. It didn't do anything. One thing it did do, is show a box at the bottom left of the screen with a tick box. The tick box allows you to recalculate the inside.

I did that and it still didn't do anything. I then tried doing it manually. I clicked on 'Mesh', 'Normals', 'Recalculate Outside'.

It still didn't work. so I tried clicking on 'Recalculate Inside'.

That still didn't fix a thing. However, I just realised that I have embarrassingly mistaken a faulty face with the colour of the texture. The texture is black where it separates from the first stage.

Now that that is sorted. I was ready to move onto adding an image into blender and combining it with the mesh. However, my computer black screened. Thankfully it came back on but blender's tab was pitch white. I lost progress. Now that I'm back in college, I tried to retry those steps as this is where I last saved.

Here, I added the faces back. It looks like the lighting on the mesh is a bit off.

I decided to press 'RMB' and then 'LMB' on 'Shade Auto Smooth'.

This actually worked well. I then realized that my previous models would look better if I kept making sure that I used 'Shade Auto Smooth' whenever make a big change to the model. For example, adding faces or joining meshes. I then applied the 'Smooth by Angle' modifier.

Next, I wanted to add the 'PNG' for the connector faces on the model. I made in photoshop yesterday. I did this by clicking on 'Add', 'Image', and 'Reference'.

Here, I selected the 'PNG' file that I wanted to use as a reference image object.

At this point, I had transformed the image to these transformations seen in the screenshot below. This is so that it looks apart of the model.

Next, I duplicated this object and placed it underneath the face model. I did that by pressing 'Ctrl' + 'C' and then 'Ctrl' + 'V'. From there, I transformed it's position on the 'Z' axis (circled below).

Here, I selected the two images and the mesh and tried to join them together by pressing 'Ctrl' + 'J'.

At this point, I remembered that I couldn't join them together unless the images were converted to a 'Mesh Plane'.

I then pressed 'RMB' and then 'LMB' on 'Convert to Mesh Plane'.

Last time I did this, I didn't change the settings. This still worked fine so I did the same here.

Here, I attempted to join them together again by pressing 'Ctrl' + 'J'.

Although it worked, I realized that the images were too far apart from the mesh. As a result, I undid this.

Next, I set the position of the image on the top to '1.354m' on the 'Z' axis.
