Title: jamma adapter question
Post by: frankbp on September 07, 2006, 12:40:20 pm

I have a jamma cabinet that I am hooking up a Birdie King 2 non jamma PCB. The board uses three connectors. A  22, 18 and 12 pin connector. Do I hook up the 22 pin connector to the jamma adapter and then plug in the other 2 connectors to the board and hard wire in the other ends.

Are you making the Jamma adaptor or are you just hooking up one you already have?

If you are making one, you will need to check the pinout of the Birdie King 2 game to see which pins you need for your cabinet.

You will need to connect:
Power
Video
Controls (trackball) -- does your Jamma cabinet have a trackball?
Audio
Coin door

These pinouts will be on one or more of the 3 connectors.
