I posted in another thread about swapping a Barco 180DVB22 into a Marquee, and had anyone successfully done it. Apparently no one had as I did not hear from anyone.
Today I took the step and inserted the 180DVB22 into my Marquee 8500. I had to make a small mod to the neck board but the pj has been running for a couple of hours and all appears fine.
The mod to put the 180DVB22 into the Marquee required moving the G2 line to pin 6. Pin 6 and 7 on the Marquee NB are tied to ground via a 330K ohm resister. I disconnected one side of the resister and created a connector to slid over pin 6 and attach to the G2 wire. To reinstall a 180DMB22 I just remove the jumper and reattach the resister.
Looks like my 8500 has been resurrected.
