Aristocrat mk2.5 monitor conversion

[tostlund]

I have an older Aristocrat slot machine (I believe mk2.5?) that I would like to replace the monitor (CRT?) with a newer, more efficient type, but I am unsure of what type I actually have and what I need to convert it. The connection on the board that it plugs into has six pins in a straight line.

Could you please help me figure this out?

Thank you!

Changed font size 5 to readable 12. Why would you want font so small that on one could read it?

First we need to know what you have.
Then we can help.
The picture needs to be under 1 megabyte in size to upload.

Talk about impressive response time!!!
Thank you!
Here is a picture of the two plugs coming from the monitor...

Sorry I meant for you to post pictures of your machine.
One of the front of the machine door closed and with door open.

If you do indeed have a MK2.5 (13" monitor), we have brand new, old stock monitor tubes for them.  PM for details.

I hope these will help. I need to know what, if any, video conversion cards are available to replace the existing big, heavy and hot monitor (CRT?) with a nice, light, slim, cool energy efficient LCD or ?.
Else, I need to know what each pin in the plug is (power, ground, red, green or whatever) so I can DIY my own video conversion.


Thank you SO MUCH in advance!

For the record, there are two MK2.5 cabinets, one has a tiny 13" monitor offset to the left (with the right section having a bill acceptor), and the other type having a full-size monitor like the later machines. Yours looks like the latter type, not sure if an LCD for a MK4/MK5 (540) would fit the cabinet though...

Thank you.
What I have for a monitor is currently a CRT, correct?

Can you tell me what I need to convert to a different type of monitor?
If someone can at least tell me what each of the six pins are for, I could simply convert the signal, correct?


Not to complain, but the only two replies I've received are either trying to correct me on what I have (wrongly) and sell me monitors that I don't want.


Please tell me what I need to convert from whatever I have to anything from the last decade?
