D9200 "No Signal/Out of Range"
« on: July 14, 2009, 06:25:31 pm »
Hey guys. I recently purchased a D9200 chassis that was advertised as working. It DOES turn on and all that, but only displays "No Signal/Out of Range." I have tried the VGA input and the CGA input with the connector on the board hooked up to the appropriate selection, and I still have nothing. Is this a common problem or am I missing something? The troubleshooting chart just says I have a bad chip. Doesn't really say much beyond that. When I use VGA, I lose the "No Signal/Out of Range" message for a second or so, like it is trying to display something, then it just comes back. Please help!

What are you connecting to it?  If it's a PC, make sure you are giving it a 640x480 signal (and definitely nothing higher than 800x600).
Nevermind, reread your original post and it sounds like you are connecting to an arcade PCB of some sort.  What game is it?

Thanks for your help guys. I figured it out. Here's what's going on. I am trying to replace the K7401 (which has a great picture and works just fine) that's currently in my Mame cab with the new D9200. I just wanted a digital chassis in there. The problem was that my resolution was 800x600 and I am told that it can't be higher that 640x480 in VGA or CGA mode for the chassis to receive it. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but I don't want my ArcadeVGA card to go that low. I like it at 800x600. When I hooked the D9200 up to my MK2, it worked perfectly, except I can't control Horizontal Width.



There is a Pot marked 'H Size' on the board as well as the settings through the remote board and neither one stretches the image.





I have to use the 'h-v adj' pot to fill the image on the screen but that scrunches the bottom of the image. I think a cap kit will fix that. It's strange.



Regardless, I at least got it working. I wanted to put it in the Mame cab, but I guess I'll just keep it in the MK2 because it looks better than what I have in there now.



Thanks again.
