FAQ: Everything you need to know about your Xenarc - Page 3

Xenarc, has made a change and now only has one PCB. You will need to be aware of this change if you get one of the new screens. Many of the posts show the old internals with connectors etc. and separate PCB's

Hope this helps someone

I searched forever trying to find this information. Couldn't find it here, so ended up calling Xenarc to get the information. Figured I'd post it here for future searches:

Here are the power connections for the 4-pin molex header on the back of the 700-IDT (pinout is the header on the board, not the cable):

(and in case that IMG goes red-x, a crude ascii version: )
__=__
|4|3|
|2|1|

Pin 1: GND
Pin 2: ACC
Pin 3: NC (no connect)
Pin 4: +12V (constant)

Note, that this is not the same configuration as the 4-pin cable on an ATX power supply. Pin-2 on that cable is GND so the monitor will not turn on. Fortunately Pin 3 is NC so you won't fry anything by accidentally plugging in +12V there.

Also, if you want to use the co-axial power plug to the right of the 4-pin header, you need to short Pins 2 and 4 together so that the ACC pin is powered.

Hopefully this helps some people out. It certainly would have saved me a couple hrs of searching. (I kept at it while waiting for Xenarc support to open 45 mins late. :P )

I was looking for a pinout for my 705TSV so I could do some surgery on my cable to make it shorter. It has a 26-pin mini-D ribbon connector (not 20-pin like the others I found posted here). I haven't seen this posted yet so here is the drawing from Xenarc of what the pins correspond to for the 26-pin version of their cable harness. (Image quality scaled down to be hosted here)

God-of-CPU, you addressed this in an earlier posting, but you didn't have anything to "search" for. Thought I would help the next guy.

Xenarc carries their touchscreen overlays and cables/board at the above website and you don't even have to talk to anyone. Was going to paint my console so I had to pull the monitor out. Cracked the far edge and most of the screen still worked, but why clean everything up just to put a cracked monitor in?

Prices for the 5 wire touchscreen ( 700TSV ) is $65, 4 wire ( 705TSV ) is $45. They also have the "kit" if you want to replace your boards and cables. They are substantially more (double). Overnight shipping was another $40. So hopefully you don't have to fix it quickly.

Xenarc has changed the timing settings they list on their site for the 700 series. If you have an older monitor, you might want to try these old ones instead.

The ID code for the initial power up of the MDT-X7000 is 0000
The parental control password for the xenarc MDT-X7000 is 3309

if you lose the lose paper that comes in your manual your screwed as even the reset switch wont fix it your expected to know those =)
