Title: Qbert Monitor question
Post by: mushi99999 on February 07, 2006, 12:13:53 am

Hey guy's I have a qbert with a wells-gardner 19K4951 what my question is it says it must be connected to an isolation transformer. but I want to connect it to a mame can't I just wire it straight to a power strip?

Even after it tells you it *must* be hooked to an isolation transformer you ask that?

well Yeah. that's why I asked. I didn't know so I thought I'd ask. wasn't sure what the Isolation transformer is for other than isolating it from the main cpu but mabe I'm reading this wrong.
