I had a post started where I was going to build a bartop but came across a cabinet and ended up buying it instead. I am closing the old thread because this will no longer be a bartop build. Here is a link to the old post that I am closing and pointing over to this post. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,128424.0.html |

Here are a few pics of the cabinet when I went to go look at it. Might need some help getting controls and everything working on this thing. I know I will be ordering some parts eventually. https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9Znv5xygW9NTzlVbHNaSGEwYlU https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9Znv5xygW9NUlUyNHlQVGxmLUk https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9Znv5xygW9NbTJvYlNpenJNY3c https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B9Znv5xygW9NckNxODRBaktPa0U |

I seen the Lono2 and liked that it comes with wiring harness. Wasnt sure how it stands up to the IPAC4? Any suggestions? I plan on sticking with 4 players with JWL-UM-8 which can be switched from 4/8 way. My thought is to change the positions of the player from 1, 2, 3, 4 to 4, 1, 2, 3 so player 1 and 2 will be in the center. Player 1 and 2 will be the most used. Also thinking of using 6 player buttons for players 1, 2 and maybe only 4 player buttons for players 3, 4 Player 1,2,3,4 start buttons. Player 1,2,3,4 coin buttons, or shifted buttons for the coins or find a good way to use the coin mechanism as coin buttons. Exit, pause, menu button Plus a button wired to the computer for power. Any thought on this trackball for bowling and golden tee games? If purchasing led buttons does it require me to buy a separate device to light the buttons or would i be able to use the Lono2 or IPAC4? Here is a link to the HP monitor I plan on using. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&objectID=c00355202&prodTypeId=382087&prodSeriesId=374654 |

Any suggestions on the parts and post above? I think I found the answer to my led button question and it is that I can run the led's from the computer power supply if I understand correctly? Do most people wire buttons like this? This would mean that any time the machine is on all of the led buttons would be on. |

That monitor is way too small for that cabinet, it will look ridiculous. That cabinet needs a 27" monitor not a 21" PC monitor (which is 19" in arcade terms). The monitor in that cabinet is going to be medium resolution and the joysticks are going to be 49-ways. Does the machine work already? Does the monitor work? |
