The jpac goes the other way. It takes a PC video out to an arcade monitor video in. Not what it sounds like you are doing.
The ipac does nothing with video.
Not sure what board you are using but if it is standard jamma then you need a cga to vga converter to run a PC monitor.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Shouldn't be a problem. Use the jpac for the jamma connector controls and run the PC monitor from your computer.
