Title: Arachnid Super 6 monochrome monitor needed
Post by: tkaddatz on December 11, 2013, 07:54:58 pm

I have an old Arachnid Super 6 dartboard.  The monitor is not working.  Any idea where I can pick up a new one, or if they make an after market "plug and play" kit for an external monitor?  I am not electronically gifted and would need something pretty easy to install.

thanks

Should have a composite output on the circuit board.  Just plug it into a regular TV.

Not every board had the RCA video output jack installed. Sure the pads are there to install a jack yourself, but the factory just stopped putting them on the board. Some boards only had the two pin Molex connector installed. This picture is of a gameboard that had both style jacks installed at the factory.

DO you still need this? I think I have one.
