Hey guys I went to set the B+ on a factory atari sanyo EZY and theres no BJ TP91 test point. The labels on the board but theres no prong sticking up nor does there look like there ever was :confused:.
 
You can check it off of that huge resistor leg next to it... the one that's about half an inch wide and two inches tall. It's tied in and reads the same voltage.
 
I probably should ask what to set this at, its currently at 118dc but this is a 120ac monitor so is that right?
thanks Jason

You're confusing the two. AC and DC are two different things. You need to be concerned with the DC side. You should be riding ~108VDC. You're too high lower it.
 
Sorry to be confusing, this monitor is not run off a 100AC transformer as most Sanyo EZ 20s. Its plugged right in to 120AC so I wasnt sure if that stepped up all other voltages. Im getting 118 DC with the pot adjusted near the middle but when turned down I only read 116 DC or so and the pic was gone from the screen :confused:. I figure I can probably turn the flyback up but wasnt really sure on the desired B+ for this application
 
You HAVE to have that running off a 100AC ISO. You've most likely burned the hell out of that chassis. :(

He's got a Sanyo EZY.....a 120VAC input monitor...
not a Sanyo EZV....a 100VAC input monitor...

Two different monitor series.

This is just a guess....but you should be safe with the B+ set around 120VDC. That's where I set mine at, and I've never had a problem.
