|
|
Hi,
I know I saw a fix for this before, but I can't remember the steps. I have some verticle banding on the far left side of my Marquee. I know there is a tsb for foldback issue on the lfet side, but this does not look like foldback.
Thanks
God bless...

Bummer, Thanks for the info though...
One interesting thing, it seems to have changed with that latest set of mods I did on the VIM. WHat signal/chip is ringing?
I bet there has to be a way to stop it without a VP or HTPC...
God bless...

It has nothing to do with the VIM. you would need to take a look on the HDM, and let us know when you fix it..

I'm sure you're right but I've got to say that my latest batch of VIM mods definitely changed it even if the main source is from the HDM the VIM plays in somehow.

Can you shoot a few screenshots of a full white screen showing the difference.?

Kurt is 100% correct; the vim has nothing to do with it. Supposedly, there was an HDM produced for Boeing simulators that doesn't ring but there's no part # confirmation.

Hi,
So my brother works for Boeing, but sadly for us he works in the wind tunnel testing division, so I don't know if he can help us track one of those Marquee's down, but just for the fun of it I asked him if he could ask around...
You guys were right, contrary to my recollection, the stock o2p VIM has just about the same ringing on the left side of the pic as the modified one.
So does anyone have any ideas on what part of the HDM is causing the ringing?
Thanks
God bless...
Mark

No part in particular , just the design. To eliminate ringing at high frequencies Electrohme
would have had to design a HDM that could be placed right on top of each deflection coil.
It has to do with the inductance of the entire circuit.
What ringing is as I understand it, the electron beam draws the image from left to right
and as you increase the frequency it moves extremely fast. As it begins the
next line after being blanked it does not have time to settle down to a stable
beam as it begins the new line. So one way to allow it to have more time is to increase the back porch
pixels. That is why we say you need a VP or HTPC to address this issue. All CRT's suffer from this.
You could also try to set the raster off to one side more to increase area of the phosphor
the beam begins to draw the image.
