DIY 2 to 1 JAMMA Switcher
« on: June 19, 2013, 09:40:11 am »
Hey everyone,

I have two jamma boards, and only one cabinet and i was wondering if i can build a switcher to switch from one game to another using a button or a switch. I found that there is nothing available for diy, only if you buy one, but i don't want to buy because this switchers are expensive. I am good on electronics and i would like to build one. Does someone tried that before? Any experience from that? Any answer will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot

Thanks for replying! I think this will help me but i have no idea about relays and how do you toggle them. What relays did you use for this project?
I can't understand how the 12V from power supply goes to the board. Can you please explain to me? thanks
