48 in 1 test screen
« on: January 27, 2009, 09:09:50 am »
I have a G07 monitor issue in my Xevious. The colors are all wonky after doing a tube swap, and I'm not sure what is wrong.

Anyways, the 48-1 has a color pattern test screen, but with one problem. I have no clue which colors are supposed to be where. Could someone up a photo of a correct pattern, or at least tell me what the pattern is supposed to be?

And if anyone wants to help troubleshoot: the tube was known good, and the wiring is verified. The chassis might be suspect because I think the colors may have been wrong before the tube switch, but the game (relief pitcher) didn't make it easy to see all colors.
All colors show up in "Happy Hours" on the game select screen, though green is a little light. The tube is also obviously magnetized and needs manually degaussed. I've been told the colors wouldn't be thrown off as bad as they are by magnetism though.

Problem solved. Even though I verified the Jamma pinouts, and verified the G07 rgb pinouts on Bob Robert's site, the pins were still wrong. Who knows why? I just kept changing the order until the colors were right.

Bob Robert's G07 page: Pin1 Pin 2 Pin 3

My G07:                            G      B      R


Still has a magnetized splotch, but it is getting smaller with each fire up I think.
