I have a pair of Crusin World Drivers, replaced both Monitors with new WG Tri Sync 26" LCD, after spending quit a bit of time on the mounting brackets got them installed and have a great picture on both. The problem is, after you hook up the linking cable on the Game that is set to be the "slave", the monitor turns ON for 3 seconds then OFF for about 4 seconds and it just keeps strobing like this. Game plays blind just can not see it all the time. If you change the setting so this cabinet is now the "master" and the other is now the "slave" the problem moves to the other Cabinet. Put it in "test" and the monitor stays on or remove the link cable and both work independently as they should.
Has any body else had a problem like this? Has any body else used WG LCD Monitors on Midway Drivers and link more then one game?
Don't know if i need to use another manufactures LCD monitors that may have different operating characteristics then the WG.
I tried putting a 4.7K "pull up" on the sync and that made no difference. Put the scope on the Sync and the signal stays strong during linking. All the voltages for the logic check in specs. all grounds test good.
This should not happen because the logic for video out is not tied to the rest of the Games logic...more of a Parallel port type.
I sure could use some ideas, I have 1500.00 in parts alone in this project with the 2 monitors, bezels, mounting brackets (that needed a lot of mods) shipping, etc.
I have talked to WG and Happs Tech Support, so hope some one here may have had the same problem.
