Adjust the Universal Video Converter (UVC)  

 

The Universal Video Converter (UVC) is designed to work with most EGA and CGA arcade 
monitors.  When you power the cabinet up for the first time, you may need to adjust the 
settings on the UVC board to match the monitor.  To correctly set up the UVC, you must 
know the resolution and Horizontal and Vertical Sync setup of the monitor.   

Depending on your cabinet, the J7 video output of the UVC can be connected directly to the 
video input on the monitor, or to J4 on the Jamma Conversion Board to route the signals 
through the Jamma harness to the monitor. 

Both normally ON. 

ON:  CGA = 640 x 200 @ 15.72 KHz  
OFF:  EGA = 640 x 384 @ 24.5 KHz 

Both normally ON to auto detect the video resolution. 

Normally ON. Changing the H Sync signal will move the entire picture left or right. 
Change this setting if you find the picture is too far to one side and you cannot 
adjust it using the monitor remote control panel. 

Normally ON. Changing the V Sync signal will move the entire image up or down. 
Change this setting if you find the image is too far up or down on the monitor, and 
you cannot adjust it using the monitor remote control panel. 

ON:  Composite sync, for monitors with one composite (combined) sync line 
(most CGA monitors). 
OFF:  For monitors with two separate H and V sync lines (most EGA monitors).  
Change this setting only if you have no picture on your monitor.
