Hi,
I have recently bought a Naomi Uni cab with a 29E 31S monitor.
When I bought it I tested the monitor and on first sight, everything was fine.
Now I've reassembled the Naomi and I notice that I'm having issues with the width of the monitor.
Vertically everything seems fine.
However I cannot get the picture to fit on the screen using the external control board. Even when I set it to the narrowest setting (H. Size), the picture will not fit my tube.
Left and right are too wide for the monitor. When I use this setting, I get bad pincushioning on the horizontal edges as well. Turning the PIN adjustment doesn't do anything.
As soon as I make the image wider with the H. Width, I seem to be able to resolve the pincushion effect, but now the image is far to wide for the monitor to display.
Apart from this the image/monitor seems fine.
I've read dozens of other monitor threads and it seems that the problem can be caused to the east/west diodes. Where can I find those on the board? I have a service manual but the component names on the schematic are almost unreadable...
Is it something I might be able to fix myself? (I'm confident around electronics, mostly building audio effects and guitar tube amplifiers, completely new to CRT stuff though)
I have some pictures of the screen; The last pic is how the picture seems to be the best I can get it at the moment. (Left / Right image is being cut off though...)
Any advice?
Thanks!
Swoon
