Act-Labs Gun w/ 15khz Monitor & ArcadeVGA?
« on: February 11, 2003, 09:25:06 am »
I've got a question....

The Act-Labs gun (for monitors) was designed to work on computer monitors, which operate at much higher thatn 15khz.  

I *believe* the Act-Labs TV Gun was designed to work at 15khz (tv freq?.. NOTE: I could be way off on this.. I'm just re-hashing what I've read on the forums).

My question is, will EITHER the TV or the Monitor gun work AT ALL with a standard res arcade monitor and the ArcadeVGA?  ???

Yep. Someone posted success with using the gun on an arcade monitor using Andy's card on the Ultimarc forum.

Won't work on interlace resolutions, but works fine in progressive modes.
