I think he's looking for these?
The top one is a CHAM44 and
the bottom pic is a CON1s.
Pictures from Jay's post a while back>>>

Yes, thats it....I have the con1

Yes, I see that....However, this picture is a CON1S and you have the CON1i version.
I believe your controller might need  a Gateway box...please jump in anyone if I'm incorrect on this?
The only thing I am sure on is that the CON1i can be hooked up to an IGT machine.
Other than that, I don't know what it can do.

That is my con1 pictured, It is a 4 machine version. It works just fine for the IGT. They made 1, 4, 8, 16 & 32 machine units.
The S is for standalone (single unit). There is also an E version which is the one that has support for expansion to other CON1's as you can daisy chain these for up to 1024 machines.
There is also F for the fiber version. Which is the same as the E version but over fiber vs copper.  I am not actually sure that there is a CON1i and if there is perhaps there is no non- i version.

The I or non-I is important for the CON2 units but the CON1 just works on closed contact support,

The gateway allows the Display out of the CON1 to be converted into the 3rd wire data-return line.

This is why I thought he might need a gateway box?
Click on the sheet to make it larger if you want >>>

ADD>> whooops, it really gets big when you click on it! LOL
My scanner is too strong or something... :5-
Okay, I fixed it...now it doesn't zoom so bloody big!>>>

Post by: jay on December 08, 2009, 08:20:11 PM
Interesting stuff. Doesn't explain why the gateway is needed or not needed ???? but the I in this case does not designate IGT.
I have never come across a CON1 that has the third line for data return ........

Post by: stayouttadabunker on December 08, 2009, 10:27:34 PM
Cadillacpro has the CON1i.
Might be the first I've haven't yet seen as well.
I would like to see a better picture of this particular board. :184- :183-

Okay, Cover that brown chip's eyeglass in the corner there as soon as possible.
Any UV light entering that glass will erase it's contents!!!!
I like using black electrical tape but,  at this point ... anything will suffice!

My other Con1 looks identical to this one.

Having trouble loading a picture... :5-
Don't know why...I've reported it to our beloved admins...
I'm getting all kinds of error codes such as "Error Uploading"
and "Upload Folder Is Full"...
maybe NLG needs a "clear chip"?... :200- :5-  :97-


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: cadillacpro on December 09, 2009, 02:06:11 AM
Then you had the unkown Con1I all along with out knowing it :89-


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: brichter on December 09, 2009, 03:08:17 AM
Picture or con1i

With all those opto-isolators lined up like that, it looks like the same slot machine interface circuitry as a CON2I. :89-

Post by: cadillacpro on December 09, 2009, 03:48:49 PM
More info on the board I am looking for.....The circuit board has "MIKOHN LED4 LOGIC" written on it.

Somebody has to have one of these somewhere :5-


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: stayouttadabunker on December 09, 2009, 03:58:21 PM
I found the CHAM44 (LED4) logic board you're looking for!
And I have an extra power supply...might have to make a power plug though for now.
pictures shortly...

I keep getting this error when trying to upload a picture...
I've shrunk the photos down to sizes that have worked many times before...
I don't know what to do.
This is the message that pops up on my screen>>>


An Error Has Occurred!
The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.

Finally!!! Thanks to Capt happy for fixing it!
Uh,...The $13 under the monitor is my change...
I cannot send that to you cause I'm gonna need it to pay for shipping...LOL

I have not seen too many Cham44s with a 1x3 chip on it. So if you are looking for this specifically you might have a hard time.
The 1x2 can be modifed relatively easy.


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: stayouttadabunker on December 09, 2009, 04:18:05 PM
I've tried to find the line on the V7.15 but couldn't...
I have to see if I can locate it on a V7.22


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: cadillacpro on December 09, 2009, 11:17:13 PM
I'll take what I can get at this point and work up from there. I am sure that if I get the logic board that runs it we can get the chip issue corrected. 2 out of 3 panels running is better then none at this point. :89-

Thanks for all your help :3-

I'll give ya an update in the A.M. :89-


Title: Re: Help with Cham44 logic board and Con1
Post by: stayouttadabunker on December 10, 2009, 05:34:21 PM
BINGO! I got another CHAM44 board working with a 1x3 !
:136-
I made a video of a message I put on it but what happens is my
video camera shutter is either too fast or too slow so it appears
that there are huge block letters scrolling across the screen.
I won't post it but I will report that when viewed with the human eye, like normally...LOL -
it works perfectly! :89-
I will email ya!

Thanks guys...
I happened to have a backed-up V7.15 in a 1x3.
TJ- I will mail it in the AM.
I'm doing it with my xmas wrapping...LOL
PM me your address again so know where it should go...
I'm sure I've long lost your email with the address somewhere.

J.- I tried comparing the cookies you sent me but they look totally different
in every different form I tried to view them in.
I used both my HxD and my GQ-4X programs.
I need to spend more time analyzing them to come up with some better ideas.
I'm using SST's for which don't need UV windows for quick erasure as I try different failed bytes....LOL
Saves a lot of time than using the older UV windows and UV light bulb.

more close ups

Those are Mikohn Supremes with 1x2 display chips.
They are for driving displays with 2 panels.
You would need the 10-pin ribbon cables to the displays,
power supply and harnesses to make them do anything.
On top of that, you need the PSP V2.0 and the Mikohn Downloader.exe
program in order to program anything to the displays.
Finally, I would think you'd also need a Mikohn CON2 Super Controller too
but I may be wrong on that.
The price of Supreme boards alone by themselves?
$50 -$80 apiece would be reasonable considering what you'd need for it to do anything.
The board is really part of a much larger package...

Uhhhh, it was kinda an offer as available if wanted, I will just put on eBay to make easier

Oh...sorry Blueridge!
I thought they were someone else s and you were buying them... :5-
(Stupid Bunker!... :30- :25-)
I will look for your listing! :184- :183-
I have a problem with one of my supreme boards and
would like to see if I can get a good working one to compare it with. :186-
