Review on GeeekPi Arcade1Up Controller HSD190MEN4 with 1280X1024 Resolution by Jaime Murphy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

New life for Samsung monitor, picture of connection cable to GeeekPi board is WRONG

No instructions. Two of the 3 included cables (to the included key switches and to the CCFL inverter board connect to the pin headers on the video board and can only be connected one way, no problem. The third video cable connector (black) can be connected in one of two ways ( rotated 180 degrees). I connected it first as shown in the product image on the GeeekPi product page. Surprisingly it didn't work. I contacted the seller twice and attached photos and a copy of the screen model (M190EN04 V5) to the question, as to whether my screen was compatible, they ended up replying that it was NOT compatible and citing the model information on the product page.When I searched another vendor's page for the same item, I noticed that the video cable was rotated 180 degrees I connected the cable correctly (the yellow dot marks the pin 1 connector and a small it triangle representing pin 1 on the board) and now it works. This is a good product, but the seller posted the wrong picture. ly. And depending on the panel size, resolution, signal interface, input voltage and lamp type, it is fully compatible with my screen and probably many other models not listed. The seller does not know enough about the product to provide technical support.
