How
Monitors Work - Part 1
Video slot monitors are a lot easier to fix once you know how they work. This session assumes that you have no previous knowledge of monitors. Some understanding of electronic components will be helpful but is not a prerequisite. It's actually really simple to understand exactly how a monitor creates an image on the face of the picture tube. This session is presented by Slot Tech Magazine publisher Randy Fromm. |

How
Monitors Work - Part 2
Now that we know how monitors work, let's take a look at each of the seven sections that make up a monitor. Once you understand what each of these sections does, monitor failures are easily identified. We'll also take a look at the schematic diagrams for the monitors we find in today's slot machines. Circuits and components are identified with emphasis on "what fails." Each person attending TechFest will come away with a package of schematics and troubleshooting flowcharts that will help speed monitor troubleshooting and repair in the shop. |
