Upside-down picture on monitor (can't identify)
« on: February 02, 2009, 01:49:49 pm »
Hey,

The picture on my monitor is upside-down. Using ArcadeVGA and JPAC.

Based on this guide, I'm pretty sure this is a problem with the yoke(?) but I'm not sure what/where those are, and don't know what kind of monitor I have (it looks similar to this one but not entirely).

Can you help me identify the yoke?

The last pic is something I saw that I thought looked like the yoke in the guide. Not sure, though.

Thx

Looks like you have a K7000 variety of monitor.
Should be able to find a label something like WG 25K7XXX somewhere.
There should also be a "Pxxx" number somewhere on the main chassis.

Your yoke connector will be behind/under that metal shield area.

Not a technician . . . . just a DIY'er.

How is the yoke connector affixed to the board thingy? Can I just sort of pull it off?

Also, the guide I linked to shows the connectors as VH VH whereas yours portrays them as HH VV. Which is it (or how can I tell)?

Thanks again.

The one that plugs into the main chassis just pulls off.
It "plugs" in.

Also, the guide I linked to shows the connectors as VH VH whereas yours portrays them as HH VV. Which is it (or how can I tell)?

Bob's guide shows both versions.... VH VH and VV HH.
The first is for a G07, the second is more typical of like what you have.

When in doubt..... Ohm it out.

You will get a lower reading on the horizontal winding, and typical ranges are from 2 to 12 ohms on the H winding & from 12 to 60 ohms on the V winding.

That will at the least tell you which two wires are a "pair" that go together.
If there is no continuity, then they do not go together.
DO NOT mix them up between vertical and horizontal. V with V , H with H

Yours should be setup just like the picture I posted.
One pair is spread further apart.
Only flip that pair on the same two pins.
Same goes for the other pair.
One pair flips it horizontally.
The other pair flips it vertically.
