Very close to being right. I would suggest a separate 15 volt power source, possibly a wall wart. But how far wrong can you go for $12.95?

Power up is normal. Display is normal. After 18-20 seconds, a faint arcing/sizzling sound can be heard along with the normal vector clatter. On powerdown, the sizzling continues for about 10 seconds after powerdown before finally sputtering out. No visible arcs in: HV cage, anode cap, DAG->chassis GND spring, or inside tube neck. Picture is crisp and solid at all times, regardless of arcing sound. The last fix to the monitor was a while ago, and did involve the removal of the HV supply to replace a couple of caps. Q1: Is the arcing something I should be worried about? Q2: What's the most likely cause of the arcing? My hunch is that it's going on _under_ the anode cap - maybe some crud or finger-moisture got between the HV lead and the tube when I removed it to fix the HV caps. It's also possible that some of the silicone goop may have been removed when I removed the anode cap. I think I'm on the right track, but before I get knee-deep in goop, I figured I'd bounce my situation off the list first.

Everything worked fine, then, the board wouldn't even boot. One single flash on the CPU LED. After a careful inspection, Q6 (2n4401 in 555 curcuit) was blown apart. This is where the +2v AC would normally go, but I had this tied to +5 because of the switching power supply to "appease" the watchdog. I replaced both 2n4401's in this curcuit with 3904's, and everything is fine now. Has anyone had a similar problem when running a G-80 set to a switcher and putting the normally +2vAC to the +5 line?? I was wondering if the 2n4401 just failed out of random chance, or if putting the +5 to this curcuit could have caused this.

(you could even burn VideoCD's then) With MPEG you could play them on whatever PC-type box is common 5 years from now, when in my bold prediction, nobody will know what RealVideo is. (At least MPEG has public source to read the format, RealVideo is likely guarded at this time) (Unless I just proved how little I know about realvideo's format - i could care less about the streaming capabilities... give me the whole thing everytime and I'll be happy. Force me to trust somebody to keep a server up with the full feed hidden behind too many redirectors and I'll be bitter) (Plus the VideoCD option for burning would let you play them in a DVD player - you'd get another 2% coolness factor out of the hack) From raiford Tue Jul 6 20:25:29 1999 Received: from relay4.smtp.psi.net (relay4.smtp.psi.net [38.9.52.2]) by mcfeeley.cc.utexas.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/%M%-%I%) with ESMTP id UAA24373 for ; Tue, 6 Jul 1999 20:25:28 -0500 (CDT) Received: from [204.240.133.14] (helo=orange) by relay4.smtp.psi.net with smtp (Exim 1.90 #1) for vectorlist id 111gSl-0006dW-00; Tue, 6 Jul 1999 21:25:27 -0400 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19990706212045.008c2140 > X-Sender: us001378 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Tue, 06 Jul 1999 21:20:45 -0400 To: vectorlist From: Jon Raiford Subject: Status of Battlezone Bellows?

Anyway, I have the mould, and cast 7 of them so far. I need to get a better 'dispenser' of the chemicals as its kinda messy. But all in all, they came out as designed. I just put one in my food fight, and it works just fine. I'm gong to work on the web site this week sometime, and then I can take orders, I can cast 2 per night if the wife lets me... and about 5 on a Saturday if I am lucky, so I'll be a little slow on sending them. The material gets harder the longer it sits, so after I pop them out of the mould, I have to let them sit for a couple of days to fully cure... I'll shoot some pics and get the web page setup. The only thing I would recommend is that if you are a battle zone owner, that you buy two so that both sticks have the same feel, even if you only need one bellow.... I'll keep you all posted...

The EMUP is nicely made, and clearly shares lineage with the MUP. The EMUP software is really the same little stand-alone DOS programs that the MUP used, but at least they're accessable from a menu system. Software updates can be had from the JDR Microdevices FTP site-- they've supported everything I've needed without having to wait/ask. (It turned out that lots of the 22V10's I had hoarded for the Tempest Multigame were actually Lattice 22LV10's-- my current EMUP software didn't support it, but I grabbed version 9 off the JDR site and programmed them without problems.) That having been said, I've only been using it on an old 486/66. It interfaces through a pretty cheap ISA card, so compatibility problems on P2 class machines would *not* surprise me. It does peacefully coexist with the EPP8 (8 EPROM gang programmer) which is nice... > Any other suggestions for a good programmer?

It's not as snazzy looking as our BP Microsystems boxes at work, but it also doesn't cost $1500 or run $300 for every damn adapter. I got mine as a refurb for $275. (Maybe from Generaldevices a year or so ago?) Since then it's burned every PROM for the MultiPac, ESB, and Sega Multigames; every PAL/GAL for the ESB, Sega, and Tempest Multigames; and all the PLCC EPROMs for ESB/Tempest too. (in short, LOTS of parts!)

But I did make a mistake of purchasing a XELTEK from GDI. They eventually agreed to take the XELTEK back in exchange for a PB-10 ($450 to $120 guess I would too!) so I don't have nice things to say about GDI. What about the new B&K unit? It is my understanding that the older series of ROM burners didn't work on the faster systems. The catalogs recommend nothing faster than a 486-50. But I have heard people running them on faster systems. I still use mine on a 386-40. -- Kev Mowerman >>REMOVE THE ? to REPLY Looking for Pac-Man related hacks & Video Game Coin Op Page -> http://www.erols.com/mowerman From aek Wed Jul 7 22:29:12 1999 Received: from spies.com (root [198.180.182.10]) by mcfeeley.cc.utexas.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/%M%-%I%) with SMTP id WAA08838 for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 22:29:11 -0500 (CDT) Received: from localhost (578 bytes) by spies.com via send-mail with P:stdio/R:inet_hosts/T:smtp (sender: ) (ident using unix) id for ; Wed, 7 Jul 1999 20:28:31 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.101 1997-Dec-17 #18 built 1998-Oct-15) Message-Id: Date: Wed, 7 Jul 1999 20:28:31 -0700 (PDT) From: aek (Al Kossow) To: vectorlist Subject: Re: Anyone have trouble with a MOD-EMUP?

I got my MOD-EMUP real cheap through generaldynamics (?). I also got an old 286 to run it out of for ~$50 (shipped). If you have the space, finding insanely cheap old PC's isn't a problem.

Another decent-sized batch is shipping today, so I'm over half-way done with the pre-orders now and have most of the remainder already built (just ran out of shipping boxes and manuals... ooops.). Should have them all shipped in a week or two. There's a manual Addendum shipping with the kits now, that lists the "known good" DIP switch settings. (It seems that Vortex and Aliens are particular about some *combination* of settings, the "known good" ones ) The settings are the same as the ones I posted here. The other item in the Addendum address some confusing instructions in the manual. To clear the high-scores in V-Breakout, highlight the V-Breakout item from the Multigame Menu with the spinner (so it's flashing). Hold down the Player 2 Start button and press and hold the Fire button. V-Breakout will start and the high-score will be cleared. (If you don't do this the high-score will most likely appear as "EEEE" or "EE00" or "00EE" or something.) -Clay From jhendrix Fri Jul 9 13:13:18 1999 Received: from smtp.quark.com (smtp.quark.com [206.195.78.15]) by mcfeeley.cc.utexas.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/%M%-%I%) with ESMTP id NAA11805 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 13:13:17 -0500 (CDT) Received: from denver.quark.com (denver [206.195.71.192]) by smtp.quark.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id MAA09671 for ) Fri, 9 Jul 1999 12:13:33 -0600 (MDT) Received: by denver.quark.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id <33SCWY5Y>; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 12:11:45 -0600 Message-ID: <3D62AB6FFC80D211A84700104B10CB2C02D9584D > From: jeff hendrix To: "'vectorlist '" Subject: RE: Off Topic (WSJ) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 1999 12:11:41 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Reply-To: vectorlist Sender: owner-vectorlist X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.2.07 -- ListProc(tm) by CREN The same guy also contacted me, but I was too busy to get back to him. -----Original Message----- From: Mark E Davidson [mailto:Burbs1@concentric.net] Sent: Friday, July 09, 1999 11:32 AM To: vectorlist Subject: Re: Off Topic (WSJ) The guy who wrote that artical called me for an interview on the subject, Unfortunately, we never connected. -=Mark=- Omar Vega wrote: > For those of you who receive the Wall Street Journal check out page W12 > (Weekend Journal section- back page).

This results in some "did you get my check, it hasn't been cashed yet" mail (which I deal with on a case-by-case basis)... I don't like to cash checks too far in advance though in case there's a delay or last-second problem. When that happens I get "hey, you cashed my check four weeks ago where's my stuff" mail which puts me in a really foul mood. ;-) In an ideal situation I'd like to ack receipt of orders and send out tracking numbers when stuff ships. Unfortunately that eats up way too much of my time. Hiring someone to do it isn't out of the question, but that changes the whole ball-game from a taxes and business structure perspective (Higher prices + pain in the ass = *really* against that idea).

(And a new roof, and a car, and paid taxes .. .) The only thing that really needs a little TLC on it is the roller controller. The roller itself has some nicks, which I can live with. But it does tend to 'miss' if you spin it hard, even after a good cleaning and lubricating. Bearings look new, but the shafts are a bit worn. However, it is seems to be missing what the manual calls a 'drive stud'. Looks like it touches the center of the roller. Does the stud make a big difference in performance ? Ideally I would like to find a replacement sent of shafts and a stud. I suspect the stud may be hard to find, so if nothing else, maybe someone can tell me the size of this stud and what it's actually doing, maybe I can fashion a replacement. (Oh -- and Bob Roberts does NOT have the shafts. :-) Boy do I love this game though. Mame and keyboard or mouse doesn't do it justice.

IF the panel slopes and IF the stud goes in the side nearest the player my guess would be that gravity holds the roller against the stud and the stud just keeps the roller from scraping against the housing. In the drawing the stud appears to be slotted, like a board standoff. My guess is it IS a plastic standoff. #6 would be the hole size it fits in to and .31" is probably length, but length of WHAT I don't know.

Also has a Wells monitor in it. Whoever changed the monitor left the fan mounted underneath it. I can't see it doing much good pulling air from the bottom of the Wells chasis, so that will probably get moved too. -Chris ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- chris -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ From jess Fri Jul 9 16:09:43 1999 Received: from roper.uwyo.edu (pmdf@roper.uwyo.edu [129.72.10.8]) by mcfeeley.cc.utexas.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/%M%-%I%) with ESMTP id QAA12972 for ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 16:09:42 -0500 (CDT) Received: from asuwlink.uwyo.edu (asuwlink.uwyo.edu [129.72.10.2]) by ROPER.UWYO.EDU (PMDF V5.2-32 #33749) with ESMTP id <0FEM001GMG3VAN@ROPER.UWYO.EDU> for vectorlist ; Fri, 9 Jul 1999 15:09:31 -0600 (MDT) Received: from magenta.com (ras8745.uwyo.edu [129.72.87.45]) by asuwlink.uwyo.edu (8.8.8/8.8.7) with ESMTP id PAA20032 for ; Fri, 09 Jul 1999 15:09:29 -0600 (MDT) Date: Fri, 09 Jul 1999 15:10:35 -0600 From: Jess Askey Subject: Re: Major Havoc Roller Controller (Shafts) To: vectorlist Message-id: <3786654B.A45DF5C > MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit X-Accept-Language: en References: <3.0.3.32.19990709163021.0070e7f0 > Reply-To: vectorlist Sender: owner-vectorlist X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.2.07 -- ListProc(tm) by CREN There is only one installed.

I finally narrowed it down to the oscillator curcuit, and the HV is fine now. This was the first time I saw a 555 go bad on an Amplifone HV board. This was crazy, I was checking through the MPSU07 (Q2), Q1 (3904), thinking it had to be one or the other. Nope. I went through all the diodes, and started measuring surrounding resistors. Nope. Then I was thinking the small pre-amp transformer (T1) was bad, so I rang it out on the LOPT. It was fine. Just for kicks, I rang out the WinTron. It was fine. Pulled and tested the BU406D, it was fine, too. After checking all my traces, solder joints, etc., I'm about ready to chew on the anode cap! I then thought about the 555, so I tried one of my Randy Fromm tricks and checked for a junction drop on diode test at pin 3 of the 555. It gets a junction drop! However, after scoping the 555, there was no waveform at pin 3. I socket and replace the 555, my HV board is fine again. Sorry for the big story, but has anybody ever seen a 555 do this on an Amplifone HV board? This was the first time I saw this, and thought it was really goofy.

And I was about to post that I put them up: http://www.westnet.com/~chris/arcade/roller/ I ended up just putting a #6 by .5" round-head bolt in there. It works, it's slot head is wearing the roller a bit, so I'm going to experiment and find something else. They didn't seem to have a stud like this. Mine had a screw in the top position too. For some reasons when I first looked at it, I thought the arm-bit was bolted on, but obviously, it's not. -Chris ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- chris -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ From fbowen Mon Jul 12 10:03:10 1999 Received: from balrelay.balt.checkfree.com ([207.196.74.140]) by mcfeeley.cc.utexas.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/%M%-%I%) with SMTP id KAA14368 for ; Mon, 12 Jul 1999 10:03:09 -0500 (CDT) Received: by balrelay.balt.checkfree.com(Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.4 (830.2 3-23-1999)) id 852567AC.0052FB08 ; Mon, 12 Jul 1999 11:06:22 -0400 X-Lotus-FromDomain: CHECKFREE From: "Franklin Bowen" To: vectorlist Message-ID: <852567AC.0052FA4E.00 > Date: Mon, 12 Jul 1999 11:03:55 -0400 Subject: Re: WSJ Article Online Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Reply-To: vectorlist Sender: owner-vectorlist X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.2.07 -- ListProc(tm) by CREN It took me a few minutes to realize there was a slash missing.

You may have to file the finish off the screw to get the solder to stick. "Christopher X.
