Joust is positive sync... make sure you are setting it up as such.

New monitors.... probably only accept -CSYNC

Not sure on Centipede, but Joust is +SYNC.

Not sure on Centipede, but Joust is +SYNC. Time to build an
inverter/combiner or two.

Thanks for quick reply,not sure what I need to do,I remember in the past
about a conversion circuit for sync issues.

If they are truely NEW monitors, doesn't any decent, respectable new
chassis have a switch selection on board for this?

I'd say consult the monitor manual before you hack into anything.

Some new monitors nowadays only accept composite negative sync.

Even the Betson Imperial accepts dual syncs..

You must have dug down deeeeep for the REALLY cheap ones... lol..

Not intended as an insult, but you need to do a little more homework.
There are PLENTY of VERY cheap complete monitors or just chassis out
there that incorporate a much higher degree of flexability.
