LCD not working with 60 in 1

I would guess that the monitor doesn't support the resolution that the 60-in-1 puts out.

If you added a J-Pac would that fix this issue?

Hi,

 

Just hooked up my 19 inch widescreen LCD (Acer 193W) to a 60 in 1 PCB and the monitor came back with a 'input not supported' message. :cry The same PCB works with a 17 inch LCD I have.

 

Any suggestions why this is, and what I need to look for in a compatible LCD?

 

Any help would be awesome. :cool:

 

 

 

Cheers

 

I have used newer monitors and found a couple had the same problem. I only use old 4:3s now and never had a resolution issue.

Might be better off to use an RGB to VGA converter rather than a JPAC :unsure

The older versions of the 60 in 1 run on anything.. It appears to be an issue that has been created one or two updates back and is only an issue on LCDs. :unsure

Thanks for the responses guys.

 

Although I would love to wack a CRT in there, this cab will be moved around a fair bit, so thought the LCD the best option.

 

I have access to a friend's 20 inch 4:3 screen. It's a fairly new model but I will test it and see how it goes. If no good, I'll have a crack at a converter as suggested by Spacies.

 

 

Cheers

I remember I had a 60 in 1 pcb & most of the LCD's I had lying about wouldn't work with it. I think it needed a monitor that would support 640 x 480.

Next time I bought a 60 in 1 all those monitors that didn't work with the previous board worked with the new board.

I wondered if there was a difference between the suposed A & B type boards I've read about.

G'day all,

 

I realise it's been almost 2 years since the last post on here, but I was wondering how you got on with this problem. I am currently in a similar situation and wondered if the RGB - VGA convertor did the trick?

Thank you.

Welcome to Aussie Arcade….

On some of the 60-in-1's there is a dip to select between cga and vga, might be worth checking this..

A lot of newer monitors may not accept 31k VGA

Thank you very much, the dip switch worked, the picture comes up, upside down, regardless of the switch combination, nevertheless i can mount it upside down in the cabinet.

Thank you for the quick reply too, very helpful.

Some 60-in-1 models have additional settings in a service menu, that overrides the dip switch, check that for proentatio..

one of the switches does a screen flip btw
