Title: Powering Up Your Cab?
Post by: tibbs68 on February 12, 2006, 05:38:44 am

Currently I power up my MAME cab via the ususal on-off blue/white intertwined cable that sits behind most PCs power button.

This is currently awkwardly located behind the coin mech door.

Can I remove the switch & connect it to an arcade button & microswitch fitted externally to make powering up the can more elegant & easier?

Tibbs ???

Yes... No reason why not... A PC power switch is only a momentary switch, much like a button and microswitch.
