Title: Need some help to install 1078 in 1 jamma pcb
Post by: Belike on July 02, 2010, 07:14:25 PM: I recieved today my 1078 in 1 hard drive based jamma pcb with the ATX power supply, it's a bit complicated for an electronics noob like me and I didn't find enough info in the manuals to get it work.
I think I should connect the pcb with the power supply with this 2 plugs, but I'm not sure:

The whole stuff looks like this:

And the manuals:

Post by: Belike on July 02, 2010, 07:21:29 PM: My questions are:
-If I connect the ATX power supply and the cab's jamma adapter with the pcb, is that enough for get it started or I have to connect other parts?
-Is it working separetly from the cab's own power supply, so I have to plug in both for playing?

Thanks in advance for comments! ;D

You have to plug the power of the cab and the power of your pcb. It would be easy to adapt the power to your cab (there's colours scheme for +12,-5,+5). Only problem would be if the pcb is getting 3.3 volt.

u might have to add a switch to the atx power supply to turn it on

thses kind of pcb don't use jamma power supply. That's why a separate ATX should be plugged.

So, if I connect the pcb with the ATX and the cabinet's jamma connector, it will feed the monitor and all other parts of the cabinet?

Post by: kroustibat on July 03, 2010, 10:36:04 AM: it won't feed the monitor as ur monitor need 220v or 110v , and a atx power supply can not do that

Yes, but it uses a Jamma connector to connect it to the machine right ? And Jamma connectors also carry the power supply voltages 5V and 12Vcomine from the PSU of the JAMMA cab. UNLESS the pins on the xxxx-in-1 are not connected to anything (which I may hope and would expect) this could be making two +5V and +12V sources to "clash"...

you're right.
these kind of board use jamma for video sound and controls only.

Post by: Belike on July 05, 2010, 05:17:55 PM: Pascal was right, I took the pcb to my old friend and he told me that there are some "blockers" in the mainboard, that keep the jamma adapter's harmful electricity away from it, so I have to connect both plugs.
It's up and running, a lot of fun games in it, that I didn't want to buy in original pcbs. ;D
Of course it couldn't get close to an original dedicated cabinet, especially a Hyper Olympics with a Hyper Sports "spare pcb"!!! ;D
Am I right Ully? ;)
