Tulsa Arcades Arcade1up Monitor Upgrade Kit Install Video

[@crashoverride576]

😮 I made my own almost exactly like that. I like that idea better then taping the monitor or using metal straps to hold it in place like I've seen several people do. It's actually perfect it will support the extra weight of the monitor.

[@MadDadsGaming]

I appreciate the comment and I am glad you think it is great. I have tried other ways but this is what works every time without any issues. Thanks again for checking out the video.

[@xpectz]

Monitor is hard as hell to find now. Expensive on ebay (with that shipping mark up).

[@MadDadsGaming]

Yeah it is but look for tech to cash on ebay and he will help you out tell him maddadsgaming told you

[@WickedGamerCollector]

This upgrade is really nice

[@MadDadsGaming]

I appreciate the comment and thanks for checking it out.

[@statikfox]

What would you recommend if using a Dell 2007FP 20incher? Throw it in without a bezel mount or trim it more? If you do trim it, what tool is best? Last one but do you put the plexi protector back in or leave it out?

[@MadDadsGaming]

Here is a link to my other video with the 20 inch Dell 2007FP in a Arcade1up. I leave it on with the upgrade kit I get from tulsa arcade. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqWwlGh8qcSeotU Thanks for watching the video.

[@mysportbuddies]

Nice video , but how do we connect it to the Raspeberry pie? Do you have a video on that?

[@MadDadsGaming]

I do have a video it and its the on my channel as well. But normally you just connect it with a vga to hdmi or a dvi to hdmi cable. Thanks for checking out the video.

[@mysportbuddies]

@@MadDadsGaming Yes, I got DVI to Mini HDMI, the original monitor just blinks but no display on the upgrade monitor 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@scottsolovei5895]

Great video. How do you make video adjustments later if the monitor buttons are covered up by the bezel?

[@MadDadsGaming]

I always connect it first and try the games out before putting it in my cabinet. If you already have it in there there you would have to take it off and make the adjustments and then put it back in. I hope this helps you and thanks for checking out the video.

[@slappymcphee]

can you give more details about what you are talking about for using Gorilla tape? I take it that the tape is double sided?

[@MadDadsGaming]

I think i said cut stripes of it and line it up on the monitor side then push the bezel on it so it will stick to the bezel without moving. If you need anything just email me and I can tall to you about it if thats ok.

[@gamebit9063]

Tulsa arcades who sell these mounts uses this video as their only directions. That being said I would appreciate a complete video showing how you placed your tape and also how you screwed in the bezel, etc.. We would like start to finish. Ty!

[@MadDadsGaming]

@@gamebit9063 i have another video on my channel that shows you how to put everything on the bezel. Please check it out.

[@MadDadsGaming]

MadDadsGaming wow, thx for the fast reply and i will for sure check it out!

[@brianbuzby5347]

Awesome videos. Just curious. Other install videos using a 20 inch dell. They take off the covering on the monitor. Do I have to do that if I buy this monitor kit from tulsa arcades. And how did you install the bezel and plexiglass. It doesnt show it in the video

[@MadDadsGaming]

Thanks for checking the video out. If you noticed in the beginning I showed you the 3M tape I used to put on the front of the monitor, and on all sides of the monitor and then push the bezel down on the monitor. I had a monitor already done is why it looks like that in the video.

[@brianbuzby5347]

@@MadDadsGaming ok but how do you install the plexiglass to the bezel and monitor

[@MadDadsGaming]

@@brianbuzby5347 It screws onto the bezel once you got it in place after pushing the bezel down on the monitor. You put the tape on the monitor first then get it at the right angle and then push the bezel down on the monitor. Then you use the 4 screws if you added them to your order to screw it on. The plexiglass has the holes already on it so you just make sure the plexiglass is setup right on the bezel and then screw it in. If you need more information please email me and I will give you my number.

Do you have trouble with the screen being dim compared to the original 1 up screen. Anyway to increase the brightness. The dvi converter wont let you in this monitor.

great video

[@MadDadsGaming]

[@ZeeboTheDragon]

Is the wooden frame around the monitor the stock one that came with the arcade 1up or was it included as part of the kit from Tulsa Arcades?

[@MadDadsGaming]

I thought I had replied to this and I am sorry about that. Yes it is part of the kit from Tulsa Arcades. If you order one don't forget to use the discount code.

[@sunsetcity1111]

I have yet to find a video on how to install the component plug-ins in the back of the dell monitor to whereever it goes. Can u please make a full video of installing every plugin because every single video on youtube regarding this only shows how to install the monitor into the arcade but doesn't show how to hook up the components from the monitor to whereever it goes. Thanx

[@MadDadsGaming]

Well you have 2 connections in the back plus a power cable. If you ever setup a computer monitor there is no difference. If you are setting it up with a Pi...then you would need a DVI to HDMI cable. Then the power cable plugs in as normal. I put another link on this video in the description. If you play this video again...at the end you will see how I only have 2 cables coming out of the monitor which is the display cable and power cable. If you need more help just email me at [e-mail] and we can exchange numbers if you like.

[@sunsetcity1111]

[@sunsetcity1111]

@@MadDadsGaming So it's a total of two connections coming out of the monitor right? One is a power cord and the other is a dvi to hdmi cable that plugs into the lcd controller correct?

[@MadDadsGaming]

@@sunsetcity1111 Yes on the 2 connections but you don't need to buy a converter when you have this monitor. You only need a converter when using the arcade1up monitor to convert it to use connection.

Hi, love the channel. Is it possible to attach the monitor (using this kit) to an arcade 1up that is using the stock games that come with it? Or do you need a pandora box etc to use the dell monitor. If so, what wires/additions do I need to be able to hook it up? Thanks

[@MadDadsGaming]

You have to buy to conversion kits plus this kit to get the monitor to work with the stock pcb. You can always use a pi and load those games.

[@johncrafton8319]

@@MadDadsGaming What conversion kits would those be? Specifically for an older cab, like Golden Tee?

What’s your email to purchase a Full MOD Arcade 1up with 20 monitor and Raspberry Pi with 128gb card with games included. New games

[@MetalManTX1]

Curious about what you did to solve power for the monitor? I removed the black frame around my 19inch dell so I can attach the Tulsa bezel, but how do You get the monitor to power on automatically? I’ve been testing it and when I switch off the surge protector my monitor is plugged into, it kills it. When I turn the surge on, I have to press the button to turn on the monitor? Any way around that?

[@MadDadsGaming]

First of all thanks for watching the video and coming by the channel. Just make sure you turn the power on and keep it that way. Do not power off the monitor at all. it will come on every time you have power if you just power it on and unplug it instead of using the power button. I hope this helps, if you want more information just email me and we can talk over the phone.

[@MetalManTX1]

@@MadDadsGaming Many thanks. Not sure what I did differently, but that worked. I also followed your video and the mounting worked great! Even used your coupon code to save a few $$ I actually removed the monitor cable for the switch from the bezel, and mounted my monitor then attached the little switch to the back of it so I can access it later without having to take it all apart.
