house of dead 4 sensor gun
« on: June 26, 2015, 11:28:33 pm »
I just bought a dedicated house of dead 4 cabinet. Having trouble calibrating my gun, took apart and noticed three pots on the pcb board of the sensor board, what do they control? went through calibration setup but no luck.

Few more details may be useful - hardware, emulator, gun make etc...

if the other gun works fine,either the wiring through the gun tube or the camera is kaput. I know not what the pots are for, there is no documentation for them. perhaps contact sega service at their website and see if you can get some explanation of the function of the pots (segaarcade.com/support)

continuity check the wires, if they are good, you are looking at replacing the camera at a cost of about 400 bucks. (suzo happ has them or perhaps ebay)

We had one of those things on route, and the gun harnesses get wrecked easily.  They're also expensive as hell.  Like several hundred dollars.  Ours were heavily patched.  Good luck!

Does anyone have a cabinet similar to house of dead 4 that is compatible with these guns. I would like to double check and see if they work or not before I replace anything. I live in Hamilton Ontario. Thanks guys
