The Sanyo 20EZ chassis left out components in the video circuits of Nintendo monitors for inverting the negative video to positive video, used by most game manufacturers. \u00a0The early Nintendo game boards outputted this negative video, so the circuits were not needed. \u00a0In later games they mounted a separate inversion board on the flyback cage to invert this negative video to a positive video for their newer games, but left a non-inverted output header for use with the older game boards. \u00a0If you have the inversion board on your Sanyo monitor it can be used with the majority of the other game boards out there that have positive video. \u00a0If your monitor does not have the inversion board… or it has been pilfered<\/em>… you can add the missing components right on the chassis as silked. \u00a0Doing this will make the single video output positive, disabling it’s use with early negative video Nintendo boards unless you add the separate inversion board, but making it compatible with the majority of game boards available today.<\/span><\/p>\n

There have been many values assigned for the components since the early 80s, but this kit contains the part values most often referred to in industry magazines, tech mags, and in Internet articles. \u00a0Even though this is a “parts” kit only, I will put the basic instructions, suich as they are, below. \u00a0Although this is not a compilation of mine, I can say that I converted hundreds of the monitors over throughout the 80s for use with new game boards & found that most ops were overjoyed with the results.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remove the wire jumpers that take the place of TR201<\/span>, TR202<\/span> & TR203<\/span>. \u00a0Remove R12<\/span>, R214<\/span> & R215<\/span>. \u00a0Install kit components in positions as outlined as the top of this page.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
