Golden Tee Betabrite LED Ticker display. PC Connect Software......Help
TOK:
I'm glad this thread resurfaced. I have a Golden Tee Fore 2005 that has the LED display. I read elsewhere that you couldn't do much with it. It appeared to be a standard sized display. I was just going to gut mine and replace the whole guts with a programmable LED sign. Local warehouse store had them for a bit under 100 bucks.

Well, my goal is to make a replacement program to run on the LED sign (replacing the two EPROMs). The sign appears to be designed entirely by IT to do exactly what they need: their logo is all over the place, and the sign appears to handle a good chunk of the tournament functionality. The main CPU for the sign is actually just as powerful as the CPU used on the older JAMMA boards. Hence, I'm guessing that unless somebody has already done what I'm planning on doing or it's a clone of somebody else's design with different software and some extra hardware (doesn't appear to be) that no replacement ROMs are available.
Failing all that, I can easily talk to the LEDs themselves using my own control board. I got all that documented a long time ago (it's very simple).

I love the demo thats exactly what I want to do with my mame and emulators when im playing a game i want it displayed above. If the golden tee cant be used i think i might strugle to get a display that fits the exact same space. Any suggestions as to places to get led displays that can fit this space? all the ones on ebay are to long or small :( thats unless this rom replacement becomes a reality and I wont need a replacement.

Will you guys keep me posted if there is any development regarding this cheers :)
MonMotha:
Sure, I'll post when I get it done. I'm really busy at work right now, though, so it'll be a while.
Is your board identical to the picture I posted? I can't guarantee that anything I do will work on other boards, a I only have that style. From what's been posted in this thread, there may be multiple types of displays (somebody mentioned a battery, which mine don't have - mine use flash).
