|
|
Hi,
this Vertical Board caused me a lot of trouble. In short: Top/Bottom pin settings are lost after powering down the projector. On closer inspection I realized that the previous owner of my set has done some (not so nice looking) soldering job on the board. He swapped/replaced 14 resistors. I suspect this mod to cause the problems, but I'm not even sure for what reason those parts were replaced.
Can somebody tell me what this could be good for?

The writing on the board says: VERTICAL BD 50 2330 02P ISS.1
Probably the rest of my PJ is an Ultra as well. I do have the FGM which gives me some extra geometry control for Top/Bottom and also the replacement Vertical Board is not working without the fly wire in place.
And looking at the quality of the soldering job I'm pretty sure those resistors were not replaced by Marquee

Yeah, the CVA has the green fly wires and some additional resistors as well...

They are 1% precision resistors though, I would simply go through the factory parts list and see which of them has the wrong values. Also, make sure "they" didn't put in a metal film in place of a fusible, potential fire hazard.

That doesn't sound too good. Maybe one of the chips got toasted during this experiment...

Can you point me to a page where I can get those part lists?
