Who would take the
video/graphics cards out of a bingo and then sell it`…odd` These emails start
at the bottom of the page and read bottom-to-top` Besides the missing
cards, Wouter’s problem was the fuse bank and this email is very encouraging` Once he found the
right person to talk to, the folks at GAA still had cards for this Bingo and
sold him one` Wouter Feys-Jaques <wouter.feys.jaques@.com> To: bingopinballs@.com Fri, Oct 30, 2015
at 9:05 AM Hello Now the calypso is
installed, but the top board doesn't do anything. Not a single light goes. Also,
the screen says nothing. Any suggestions? I saw in the inside
this thing I attached which looks broken. Could it be this?

my friend - Good job Wouter, Sounds
like you have identified the problem and are working it out _ Perfect _ I
wish I could have been more help! I hope to hear from you again on how
everything turns out _I wonder if GAA will send you any Cool
"bingo-related" Paperwork when they ship you the card. I would
love to see what they send you _ Any flyers, brochures, - etc, Have a
good weekend, Danny, From: Wouter

Hello I found out
that I have a Pluto 1, but the calypso is missing. So I need thay before I
can go further ... I've got help
from GAA company itself (the maker of the bingo). So now I'm
looking where to order the calypso (not so easy it seems). I've send already
an mail to heber, waiting for answer now. I keep you
posted :) Wouter 2015-10-15 4:01
GMT+02:00 Danny Leach bingopinballs@.com>: OK,
look like you have a TSCC Continental Super 7 – Now check out page 26 of this
sirmo pdf, where they show that the TFT monitor is a product from the company
NEC http://www.sirmogames.com/PDF/MagicScreen.pdf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA4bo1AljE4 http://download.heber.co.uk/pdfdownloads/pluto5_evalsw_um.pdf http://download.heber.co.uk/pdfdownloads/calypso16_um.pdf http://download.heber.co.uk/pdfdownloads/pluto5sw_um.pdf We
might be dealing with a Pluto, I think once we asked the forum how to connect
a d-sub to a Pluto, they are going to tell us that - yes, we need a calypso
card - and that is just the beginning, just the easy part _ then we will have
to worry about the code, the programming, and there might be both _ the pluto
might acknowledge the calypso if we use the correct turn-on sequence, but
then we may need some graphics code I do
not know where the Continental Graphics code is at _ One thing we need to
better understand is the function of both cards _ Is one
of them the graphics - the Pluto _ and is the other just the video driver,
the calypso - etc. regards, does
your monitor have an identification on it? Thank
you, From: Wouter FJ <wouter.feys.jaques@.com> Hello Danny Great to hear
from you. It is not the
one in the link you've send, it is this one : http://www.gokspelen.net/index_files/ContinentalSuper7.htm And the rest
you ask is correct. I have a VGA cable that comes from the screen and is
about 1.5 meters long. I cannot find a VGA connection on the printboard or
somewhere else. Thanks in
advance for your time! In the next two
mails I send you some pictures from the inside. Wouter From: Wouter FJ <wouter.feys.jaques@.com> Hello I am owner of
an Bingo machine, Continental super 7. Its looks in a good chape, but I'm not
able to start it yet... I have some questions, and I hope you can help me
out? I found you name and website with looking around on the internet. - The
machine has an TFT screen. It has a VGA cable come out, but I cannot find a
place to put the other side to the printboard. The printboard has a serial
(parallel?) port on it. Could it be that is has to be plugged in over there
with a switch from vga tot parallel? - Also when I
put the machine on, the lights on the playfield are working, the screen says
it is not connected, but I have no other lights on the headpanel. Could it
also be it is programmed not to work when te screen is not connected? If you have other
tips or questions, shoot. I'm ready to learn :) Thanks in
advance. Greetings from
Belgium. Wouter
