C= A3000T no video from db15
« on: April 02, 2011, 05:24:59 PM »
my C= 3000T has a problem (maybe more than one).  I can't seem to get a signal from the video db15 connector, I do get video from the larger db connector to my 1084S.  I am aware of the flicker fixer switch, which seems to do nothing.  Any ideas to resolve this would be greatly appreciated and may even qualify you for a free beer!

also thought I'd state I have this monitor, and I know it works on my peecee.  http://www.superwarehouse.com/3G_Technology_19_LCD_Monitor/GM-190B/ps/629408
I have a gvp spectrum I thought died, but I really think I have no signal from the connector as the spectrum uses that jumper...

quick update.  Battery is long gone and area cleaned. Check power?  I will IF "everything works fine BUT the 32kHz output" could be related to a power issue...  I also tried adjusting the pot for the scandoubler to no effect.  if I use a mediator and a voodoo card, is Amber used?  I take it the video comes thru the zorro and might be unaffected by a bad Amber?

I pressed Amber in, I do not have a puller and will look for a puller when I order a new Amber.  I did press on all socketed chips, so I'm sure I fondled Denise as well.  Alexh: NTSC is only for native modes iirc, which I am getting output to my 1084S.

update: She's been mine for some time, added things along the way, so I'm fairly certain something has failed.  Jumper is and has been in NTSC which is what I need. As far as power goes, does anyone think power is an issue knowing the machine is booting and outputting to my 1084S? The monitor does not ever get a signal so as to come on, not while adjusting the pot. or flipping the switch back and forth.

Have you got any equipment for checking signals? Does anything come out of the sync pins (13 & 14)?

I hate to admit it, but before kicking me, lemme say I am 1 month out from neck surgery and still in a brace, so I couldn't move things.  I had a friend come over and drag an old, huge crt from my shed and place it by my 3kt.....viola, I have video.  I did replace the Amber before trying, but lcd still doesn't work.  Anyways...now to get my scsi dvd burner installed and then my mediator...thx all!  commence ass kicking
