Hey All,
Attempted to install a Color DMD LED last night. I’ve made it through all of the steps and am not getting any video feed to the DMD. The DMD has power as it works when I press the menu buttons and I was able to flash the latest JP firmware, however when I turn it on, the game boots, lights come on, I can hear sound, but no video into the DMD. Any suggestions? I’ve double checked all of the cable orientations and reseated.

Both installed on the DMD driver board should be in other direction. Reach out to colordmd, they will help setup and ensure cables are correct.
Thanks! Sent them a note.
Quoted from altan:Perhaps this is timely (or perhaps it's too late!). I installed a LED ColorDMD on my Jurassic Park and documented the steps (or at least my first draft of the steps). While many people have ColorDMD already, this might be interesting to someone who just wants to see the process or someone who wants a little more details than what's included in the official instructions.

Dustwel Perhaps you can use this to check how your cables are installed.

!!! After looking at your pictures, the ribbon into the old DMD board was flipped. And with unflipping, one point of stress from my life has evaporated…. THANK YOU @altan!!

The JP I recently purchased has several bulbs out and I’m debating replacing with all LEDs. Any thoughts from the group? Anyone made this change and regretted it? Or loved it?
Also, my control room scoop isn’t reading shots into it. Have to figure that one out…
Here’s a few shots of the control room scoop from the underside. Nothing is standing out to me as looking wrong (I’m a novice at these older games), perhaps someone else can spot a problem?
