In Reply to: TV Tubes and arcade monitors..... (Question) posted by PacFan on 21, 2000 at 2:15 PM:
I've seen it done, but you'll need the schematic.
There won't be any internal connectors for it. You'll have to cut in right before the signal amplifiers on the RG&B channels going to the tube, as well the where the sync signals feed into the horizontal and vertical deflection circuits. If you don't know how, you probably shouldn't try it. TV's can be dangerous, and newer TV's may be too integrated for this to work anyway.
: Hello All:
: Just one question - Do Arcade Monitors and TV's (Internally) have the same type of connection on their curcuit board (R,G,B,Ground, H Sync & V Sync)? I may be able to get my hands on a 27" TV =) but the external inputs are shot. I know the tube is alright, hence my question. It would be great if I can get rid of all the excess stuff (tuner, etc.) and just leave the main board that drives the tube.
: Thanks in advance!
