Arachnid Super Six ll dartboard upgradeable??

[Ken Layton]

Does anyone know if you can upgrade an Arachnid Super Six ll dartboard so you can play more games, like the Galaxy??

I have scanned some of the Arachnid English Mark Darts upgrade/conversion manuals and sent them to www.bombjack.org and http://arcarc.xmission.com for posting for free downloads.

Anyone know where to get Gaxay artwork for the dart cabinet?

Get the part number from a Galaxy manual at Arachnid's tech support section of their website. Then call several Arachnid distributors to see if they still have some in stock.

I have scanned more of my English Mark Dart 6000 series and Galaxy series manuals & schematics.

The 6000 series equipped with the "Super Spider" target head must use game eprom chip U15 with version 3.0 or later.

The manual for the Galaxy dart game posted on Arachnid's site is for the Galaxy Darts equipped with a switching power supply. I have scanned the Galaxy manual with the linear (analog) power supply. This is the one with the tranformer, filter capacitor, and circuit board that looks like the 6000 series power supply.

Here's a 6000 series dart board analog power supply converted to a switching regulator style.

Does anyone know of an LCD conversion kit for the Super 6?

The gameboard has an RCA video output jack on it. Some boards did not have the jack installed, but the space is there for it.

The video output signal is standard NTSC composite video. So you can patch it into any television set that has a video input jack on it.

Thanks Ken for the info on the RCA jack;

I didn't know I had that, worked great. However I noticed that my display must be going I seem to have lost screen pixels I thought this was the issue with the old monitor but found it must be something with my board guess I'll have to look for a new one, unless anyone would have some ideas I could try.

Thanks again!

Be sure to press down all the socketed integrated circuits on the gameboard. Sometimes they work loose over a period of time.

Also, as shown in the game manual instructions, go into the "Spider Writer" program and clear all the garbage out of the memory (clear screen command).

Thanks again Ken!!

Completely forgot about the "Spider Writer" program, Worked like a champ no more missing pixels.

Can anyone help me locate a complete power supply for an English marks super six game?  It is the older style with the small monitor on the left side.  My power supply started smoking.
