Multi MK Kick Harness
« on: August 12, 2011, 09:32:57 pm »
Ive checked out MK3FAN's videos but he doesnt really give you a how-to on the kick harness.  He does a excellent job on the -5v/diode mod for the 6 in 1 jamma switcher thou...

Is there a schematic or a video on how to make a multi-MK kick harness with diodes?  What kind of diodes?  and where to place the diodes in the harness...

Thanks

Ok I found this very informative thread
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=80036.0

It answered some questions but not all....

1) what kind of diode should I use?
2) how many diodes do I need? one for each button or one for each wire on each kick harness?

K, started to ask some questions on various sites...slowly but surely getting answers

- Need to solder the diodes to every single wire on all the kick harnesses. 

- here are the diodes you need.  http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062587&cp=

Old thread, but since this started, a board has been made for MultiRotary set ups, and will either work for kick harnesses too or will with slight modification I believe or there has been talk about making one specifically for kick harnesses in multi-jamma type set ups.
