Why skip over the most important part in the video? it goes from talking about the setup right to you saying 'bye'.

Some Williams games have a mirror installed below the marquee. You can slide the monitor chassis back by removing two bolts and just use mirror there. I discovered this when I was adjusting my Robotron convergence. Pretty amazing!

Great Vid. By Chance is there a Video on adjusting convergence edges? Adjusting / Replace the Strips?

i been waiting for your next video! I sent a link to your channel to gamester 81 because on his new arcade channel he posted a video showing a problem with his arcade machine.

@TortureBot SuperGunGuru is right. A lot of times the convergence rings are glued in place by either the manufacturer or a former owner of your cabinet. You might have to remove this before you can adjust them. We use a flat head screwdriver to pry up the glue off the rings. Of course, this is after we have discharged the monitor. Once you get them adjusted you might want to glue them into place to keep your adjustments. We have also featured your question on episode 16 of our podcast. Thanks.

@varcadegames Thanks for the response and for featuring my question!

Says "now that we've got the monitor convergence fixed it's game time" just as a load of text comes on that looks like the original problem :D nice video.

That's just an animation if you really look again you could see the beams of color lined up and the asteroids are gray instead of red green and blue

Great video. Are the convergence rings glued in place from the factory with a dab of gunk? Or are they able to be freely moved without breaking any type of seal or glue? THANKS!

Is there a method to the way the convergence rings work, such as the ring closest to the tube adjusts the top section, the next one adjusts more to the middle etc?

How do I get in test mode for my Galaxian ?

@arcaderepairtips 3 года назад

You should be able to get into test mode for your Galaxian by turning off the game, flipping the test mode switch to the ON position, and turning the game back on. This switch is located on the inside of the coin door. If this switch is missing, you may need to wire up a new one in it's place. If you would like more details about your question, please tune into our Live Show Episode 51 on Thursday, May 6, 2021 at 5:30 PM CT. Here's a link to the episode if you want to watch it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sjieeR9fZo4.html. Thank you for your question and good luck with your future repairs.

So the magic white pen makes the rings align automatically? It went from super out of alignment to instantly aligned.... lol. Each set of rings has a special function. At first I thought each paired set was a gun color with one ring setting horizontal and the other vertical. Boy was I wrong!! Set closest to the yoke are 2 pole, the next set of two back are 4 pole and the rearmost set are six pole. Like a magnetic Rubik's cube puzzle. The rounded tabs stay towards the top (square tabs down). Here is link to a document that goes into detail. personalpages.tds.net/~rcarlsen/cbm/monitors/converge.txt
