| wiring up a 5th & 6th button to my gamebox |
| (1/3) > >> |
| super 8:
Probadly a dumb question but...My cabinet has 6 buttons per player (but only the 1st 4 are wired up). I've recently got a 400 in 1 gamebox and I was wondering how to connect the extra buttons to the gamebox. Would some kind of egde connector be required or is it just easier to buy an x arcade (the gamebox has a connection for a mouse & a keyboard). Thanks |

What sort of Game Box is it ??? how are your buttons connected now?? Does it have a separate keyboard encoder or is it connected to a JAMMA edge connector?? What exactly are the inputs that you have on this game box?? who made it ?? did it come with a manual of any sort?? In order to ask a qustion on here you have to give us information that will help us to answer it. Best Regards, Julian (Fozzy The Bear) |

Got some pics of my arcade board hopefully this should help. My arcade cab is standard jamma, 6 buttons each player, but only 4 of them are wired up and I think they all go thru the jamma loom. (Any other games like soul edge or Marvel super heroes I've had a connecter from the board to use the extra buttons) This is the board, a gamebox 400 in 1 I think this is a keyboard & mouse port [img=http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/th.0826006405.jpg] Is this the port were I could wire a connector up to the 5th & 6th buttons? |

All games that required 6 buttons had a second wiring harness. Commonly called a 'kick harness' as this was used for the 'kick' functions during the game. Since the Gamebox is loaded with horizontal fighting games I am surprised it didn't come with an extra harness or somewhere to plug one in! Are you sure you haven't overlooked something? |

The only other place I can see you could insert a connector is here... but I think thats probadly a comm port or something. Contacted the seller but they said I needed an edge connector and didn't sell it. Got it from http://www.videotronicsuk.com/ Shame cause I really wanted to play street fighter zero 3 |
