Hi all, looking to get into the world of arcades after 10 years of console modding. I have read a lot on these forums since 2008, and consider myself ready to go. I can understand many things but one issue keeps coming back, power. Inside the Cab im building i will have the following: Xbox console running Mame and FBAxx Samsung TX-P2034 tube monitor The Cab I have ordered the necessary wiring to get all this connected to the existing control panel of the cab. I am slowly learning and wanting to take my time to make something decent as a first project. (next project will have a pc, this is to get familiar with the arcade building community) QUESTION : I am still blocked as to find out how to power everything up with one switch like a regular arcade does. i read the wiki and found this, --- Quote ---The most important question... will the TV automaticallly power itself back on after a "power failure." If you turn the cabinet's power off, you want the TV to turn itself back on automatically when you later power the cabinet back on. --- End quote --- Ok, but how to know if it will, and what about the xbox as well ? any direction on that would be extremely appreciated. Sorry for the noobish question, Im overwhelmed with the humongous amount of info on here. thanks xmod EDIT : Nevermind, saw I wasent getting an answer so realised it must of been a common annoying question... so I kept reading. Turns out my 27" JVC has return + which means it comes on auto after power outage. And i modded so many xbox's in so many ways, I know I can mod a way to power it up when I turn the main switch on. thanks anyway peeps. :applaud: |
