Monitor position adjustments?
« on: July 01, 2017, 09:05:29 am »
Hi guys. I'm struggling to find a CRT which will fit my cab (21') but I have found plenty of LCD screens which are 12.5'

So my question is, would I be able to put a larger monitor in the cab but use the adjustment settings to pull the picture in some so it fits?

any advise on this would be greatly appreciated

CRT's can usually shrink a lot if you have access to the service menu, but LCD's depend on the brand as you usually only get a fine adjustement.

If you use a PC or raspberri pi as a source, you will be able change it all in software, though.
