I turned on my game today and this is what the screen shows.
I checked all the fuses and the connectors and nothing seems wrong.
Can someone please help? It seems like it is trying to tell me there is an error but I can't make it out.
Thanks!

Contact the DMD guys, they are really good with support. Are all voltages solid on all boards?
I had an issue where the Color DMD was displaying incorrectly. Reseated video cable and it went away. Eventually just replaced the cable when I got the chance.
Looks like the game is throwing a non-DMD related error, possibly something with the trough. Swap in a regular DMD to see if the screen is readable. The colorDMD draws more from +12v supply and if that is weak, it may be causing low voltage for optos.
If the menus on the display look correct using the buttons on the rear of the display, and you're only seeing problems with the video from the game, it's usually an issue with the signal coming from the game.
(1) Reseat all connectors on the two wide ribbon cables that run from the MPU to the WPC DMD controller.
(2) Run a display test from the game menus and let it run all the way to the end to check reads/writes from the MPU to the video RAM on the WPC DMD controller board.

As soon as I get back into town I will test it.
Happy Thanksgiving!
