Hantarex Polo 33" - how do i get it to properly display from my PC/DC/XBOX?
eastbayarb:
I just aquired a showcase cabinet with Hantarex Polo 33" inch monitor. It has a VGA cable wired to it, but for some reason, when I connect my PC/XBOX/DC to it, the screen is scrambled.
The guy I got it from said the monitor may need a video amplifier but I don't know what that is or where to get one to get my monitor to work. I have attatched a picture of the monitor's control panel (mounted in the monitor stand on my showcase cabinet) so maybe tweaking these controls somehow would make it work?
Any help is appreciated (and yes, I did a thorough search both here and google).

is it a polo2 auto freq,polo2 manual freq,polostar-have you tried the horizontal hold yet on that remote board?

I don't know what version polo monitor it is..I will check and ajust the horizntal sync tonnight.I really wanna be able to use my xbox,dreamcast, and PC with this monitor (i have the joysticks and buttons wired to PSX pads, and those are connected to each system via adaptors). DC and PC have native vga support while Xbox will be connected to th VGA via a component to VGA transcoder (VD-Z3) which works very well.

its sound like a polo 2 auto vga(it will have a label on the monitor psu shield that tells you everything),i reckon its just an adjustment on the horizontal pots-good luck

Ok, after adjusting some settings on the monitor board, I finally got it to somewhat properly display (I am using a dreamcast with VGA adaptor for quicker testing), but when I start up, the screen is dark, then when it finally boots, the screen is split (I have attatched a photo to give you a better idea).
Any way to correct this problem?
Thanx
