Type of switch? - on top back of ms pacman cabinet.
xmenxmen:
I have converted a ms pacman cabinet into a mame cabinet. I notice there's a switch up on the top. Looks like some kind of metal push button with 3 wire sticking out of it. Anyone know what type of switch?
Want to know if I can use that as either a push button for power on to pc or a toggle switch for disabling some of the mgmt buttons.
Thanks,

That is the cabinet power on-off switch. It's a single pole single throw (S.P.S.T.) push button switch. The green wire (or green with yellow stripe) is the frame ground wire connected to the metal bracket itself.

Thanks, that's what I was guess. I'll try and write it up and see if it works as a toggle switch, that's assuming the switch is still working.

I think that is a momentary on switch, yes? If so, it would work fine to turn your PC on, but not good for disabling CP admin buttons, which would need an always on/off switch. (See my thread for my questions regarding switching my coin-up buttons on and off.)
