Title: DCE Scandoubler - Cybervision64/3D
Post by: jiffydos on May 17, 2007, 12:27:18 PM

Hey Guys,

I have a Cybervision64/3D card with the add-on scan doubler.  I only recently picked up an A4000.  I've had the scan doubler for some years, but never had a way to use/test it.

I plug it into the AGA slot and connect the ribbon cable to the Cybervision, but alas, I do not get anything out of it.

I'm not sure if anyone knows of a procedure I am supposed to follow or software I need to install?

Or, am I the sad owner of a broken ScanDoubler.

Dave

Did you connect your VGA cable to the SD? the CV64/3D output is from there too

You need to make sure the jumperblockas JP1 and JP2 (these are jumperblocks of 3 on each and is located on the scandoubler) are set correctly dependant on how many monitors you have and how you connect them to the system. The scandoubler manual stats the following:

1 Monitor system with monitor connected to:
Scandoubler: JP1 Closed, JP2 Closed (factory default setting)
Cybervision: JP1 Closed, JP2 Open
Amiga: JP1 Open, JP2 Closed

2 Monitor system with monitor connected to:
Cybervision & Scandoubler: JP1 Closed, JP2 Open
Cybervision & Amiga: JP1 Open, JP2 Closed
Scandoubler & Amiga JP1 Open, JP2 Closed

3 Monitor system with monitor connected to:
Cybervision & Scandoubler & Amiga: JP1 Open, JP2 Open

That's probably exactly what I needed!  Thanks, I'll check all that out tonight.
