Title: Old english marks standup board
Post by: john1974 on February 04, 2011, 01:03:08 pm

New to the forum but ive been searching for help.  I bought a old english marks dart board one that plays baseball, 301, couple other games.. anyways when I was moving it into the house I broke the matrix.  Ive been searching to buy a new matrix the one with the 3 flat cables coming off of it and Ive emailed a couple companies who see one with one cable but they never reply.

any help would be appreciated.

That matrix was discontinued about 15 years ago. Best bet is to look on ebay for a good used one or a new-old-stock one.

Thanks I have been watching and will continue to.  Is there anyway to make the single cable one work or no?

The single cable matrix is for the "Super Spider" head. You'd have to perform the Super Spider upgrade as shown here:

I don't think that kit is available anymore either but I could be wrong.
