RGB - put me on the waiting list as well for two HAS because I am sure that I did not click on two HAS when I completed the survey...


Some links for those waiting for HAS..
The guys at SHMUPS recommended this power supply which I used on HAS v2 and works very well. Was a bit hard to find since the seller did not put the model number on the listing.

Here is a cable that I am not sure if it works (have not tested) with people with NEC 29xm plus RGB CRT and Trisync Arecade monitor with RGB VGA input.. I have been looking for a mini din 8 to VGA cable for quite a while and I am hoping that this cable works. Will report once I test it.

I know I'm digging up a bit of an old post, but you have any success with the mini din to vga route? I'm stalling for time on the OSSC list and am hoping to re-purpose an old monitor temporarily if possible.
 
I was not successful with the mini dim to VGA on my tri-sync arcade monitors and the HAS.

I purchased the 8 scart $200 switch and my understanding is that, as long as I have the HAS connected on scart to the switch and use the VGA output from the switch with the sync combiner build in the scart switch that it should work on the tri-sync arcade monitors.. I just have not had the time to test that. Focusing on my RGB monitors stereo setup.. I will post once I have a chance to test it.

The pinout might be different on that cable compared to the HAS/Framemeister pinout.

Also a standard VGA screen requires H-Sync and V-Sync so you need to extract that and feed it to the correct pins.

On the newest HAS there are some outputs where you can get these two signals IIRC.

Correct, in V3 there are outputs for H/V sync (CN3 on the PCB, location 22 as per the instruction manual).

Are these signals always present or do they depend on the SYNC jumper block settings ?
 
I did tried changing the jumper 22 on the HAS and using two different cables mini dim cable and it did not work for me on the RGBs monitor nor on the tri-sync arcade monitors.
 
I'm confused, did you bridge CN3 with a jumper? CN3 (22 in the instruction manual) is basically a spot which gives you two signals H and V sync.
 
RGB - sorry I was talking about jumper 17 and 18.. looking at the manual now... CN3 how do you use it? do you have to solder something there (pardon the nob question). I actually have no need for pursuing the mini dimm to VGA since I connect the HAS to the Scart switch with the cable that you recommended and my RGB monitors have no issues there:)..

^ He's asking the question I was about to ask. What sort of termination would I use to access H/V sync? Just solder leads into a cable along with the mini-din and properly wire the hd15 side? I think I found a monitor that takes BNC connections so this will likely be unnecessary, but I remain curious.
 
You could solder a 2pin connector to CN3 and then just properly wire the HD15 cable. For an arcade tri-sync monitors I'd recommend a combination of CN2 (JAMMA-level RGB signals) + CN3 (H/V sync); for non-arcade screens that require H/V sync use CN3+CN5 or mini DIN.
 
Still having some issues , i knowing HAS is syncing with the MV1C as i can plug audio jacks and hear everything fine

Never tried most of these cables as i had some of my retro stuff get lost in a move and never used these tv's on retro stuff's while I look for a CRT replacement

But when i plug it in to the TV with either HDMI with a cheap Akale converter or though composite i receive No signal both audio and video
plus tried 8pin mini DIN -> female composite adapter and 8pin mini DIN -> female Scart adapter with scart AV Adapter

TV - both are 2012 ish LCD TV's

Another question ... what type/size of screws/holding posts do I need to buy to secure the saturn adapters to the HAS unit. Mine sort fall out occasionally and I wanted a more permanent set-up.
 
@enoofu - That setup you described will never work. You see, HAS outputs RGB video, that is Red, Green, Blue signals and Composite Sync. The 8pin mini DIN female Scart adapter you bought from me outputs the same of course, but through the Scart connector - it's for use with devices that accept RGB signal.

That AKALE converter and Scart-to-RCA adapter that you connect to HAS, require Composite Video, which is a different type of signal than what you get from HAS. To get it to work with the cables and adapters that you have, you first need an adapter that will encode RGB to Composite Video.

edit: OSSC or XRGB are undeniably better devices in achieving your goal @enoofu

@SEGASHIRO - You'd need a couple of DSUB screw locks with a 10~11mm long thread. Something like this - https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/conec/740-331570/626-1566-ND/3534009

Testing - the HAS and D9200 & $220 gscart switch.. It works, I get great pictures but on my monitor the frequency buzzing sound gets very loud, I played with the jumper on the HAS no go. Played with the jumper on the scart switch and no go.. Maybe I would need a different scart cable?

I plugged in the NES and the frequency buzzing sound was present, changed the jumper on the scart switch to HV sync and the sound went away. The NES great picture.. For people with trisync arcade monitors maybe this is an option if you can not find a professional monitor..

Most times a buzzing on a switch is caused by the voltage line from the cable. You can try disconnecting it and see if it stops. I've seen some switches have that problem.
 
Hi RGB,

I'm interested if any units are left, pm sent.

Thanks
