How to control LCD monitor in arcade cab?
« on: March 06, 2015, 02:49:53 pm »
How does everyone with LCD PC monitors in arcade cabinets handle powering them on and off?

I plan on putting a Crossover 27q in my cabinet but cannot figure out how I am going to reach the power button?  Do you wire a switch to it?

Very new here so don't take my word for this but it seems a lot of people are using the Bits smart power strip which allows you to power your computer which in turn powers your other items (monitor, lights, etc.  Hope this helps:)
