A3000 with Picasso II LCD Compatibility question

vizion · 13 September 2012, 14:26

Hi I need to test A3000 which I have just got out from my storeroom to offer for sale. (See http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=65803).

It includes a Picasso II by Village Tronic Serial 950501212 and before testing I am concerned to check if it is OK to use one of my lcd monitors. I have heard I might need to remove a resistor from the Picasso Board before connecting the system to an LCD monitor - is there anything else I need to know?

I no longer have a CRT.

I have the following monitors:
Hyundai L72s
Acer AL 2216W
Acer V223W

Is there any problem using one of those?

Thanks in advance for help
David

Do not plug your PII in any TFT screens, remove the transistor first.

To locate the transistor (in French but there are pictures

)

Do you remember what´s the value of the resistor? The thing is that I bought a card with this mod already applied and, occasionally, I´d like to hook my A3000 to a CRT monitor so I would install the resistor into a "socket".
