Trim them back 1/4 inch and tin them with solder. Then add solder to 612160 IC pins on the O2. Then trim tinned wires to about 1/8 inch and solder the ribbon cable to the pins below. 5) Drill 18mm hole in lower right area (facing back of console) with step drill bit, see photo below. DIN-8 goes here. 6) You would separate 6 wires on the OUTPUT ribbon cable. Trim them back 1/4 inch and tin them with solder. These are soldered to the DIN-8 connector, see photo for what color ribbon cable goes to what pin the DIN-8. Trim the tinned wires to about 1/8 inch and solder to DIN-8. 7) Put O2 back together and connect to RGB upscaler or RGB TV that has Euro SCART connector on it.

When playing O2 games using RGB I notice small flashing dots on screen in different spots based on the game being played. Example: K.C. Krazy Chase = small red flashing dots in the lower / center part of TV screen. UFO and K.C. Munchkin = small red flashing dots at the top of the screen Mage the Final Journey = small red flashing dots at the left of the screen Any ideas of the cause? A. Yes, this is caused by changing the background color mid-screen. With a normal RF connection the dots are too small to notice, but with an RGB connection they are clearly visible. What happens is that when data is loaded into VDC register A3, the write pulse occurs too soon, before the data is available on the data bus. At that moment the databus still contains the address (A3), so that is used as background color briefly before the actual data (color) is written to register A3.

8bit-Dude Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Hey Grips! I would like to MOD my N60 with an RGB kit, and would like to check with you if this challenge is feasible. Inside the N60, there is a C52 board (see attached photo), which in principle can also be RGB modded (see: http://blog.eihis.com/2012/12/14/videopac-c-52-the-scart-way-rgb-peritel-mod/) So I wonder if: (1) is your kit compatible with the C52 board? (2) can you think of anything else that would prevent me from modding my N60? Thanks in advance! Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+chicgamer Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 If anyone is curious, the video quality using this board is fantastic! Much better than you would ever get from RF or a composite mod.

+grips03 Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 Up near the Odyssey 2 logo the gray is faded due to rubbing. Adding db9 ports to console today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+grips03 Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 O2 console has (2) db9 joystick ports added to the front, Atari 2600 pinout. Cartridge connector is slightly out of position, but cartridges fit in perfect as the O2's cartridge opening more than accounts for this. Also tested with Voice Module and that fits and works great too. Voice module not included. Has one replacement rubber foot, see photo.
