how do I check for that ? do I have to worry about it with KC ?The important thing is that the X2 and the io in the cab match.
Whether that's fast or not isn't really important.
If it turns on and you can use the controls, you're set.

Like I said, turn it on, and if the controls work then you're set. It's that easy. They won't work if the io and the card in the X2 are mismatched.how do I check for that ? do I have to worry about it with KC ?The important thing is that the X2 and the io in the cab match.

awesome, if I get one or the other maybe I'll snag the opposite from you in the futureI also have spares of both FastIO/JVSIO.
Unfortunately the way Taito designed the VLX you can't have both IO's installed at the same time (they occupy the same space).if I get one or the other maybe I'll snag the opposite from you in the future
sorry to say it but KC doesn’t sell clean cabs. They were used in Japan where smoking is commonplace. I too thought my FC was “clean enough”. Then I sprayed it with some Krud Kutter, wiped it, and looked at the resulting towel! I also removed the controls and looked inside the little gap right at the front, it’s just ~five screws. You’ll see a goddamn colony of filth in that area, I guarantee it. Nicotine fibers cover the entire cab and have permeated every nook and cranny, and it’s not that hard to take it apart and clean.I didn’t think it was dirty enough to warrant a full tear down, just fired up the air compressor and blew out the dust bunny’s. Wiped it down here and there.
The official lock is the LY1153 from a company named "First".Any hints on finding a new set of locks for it as well? Generic ones found in the US work?
the "wood" inside the cab is a shelf... Where are you going to place the X unit if not on that shelf?What’s the difference between the motherboard mounting on the MDF wood inside the case and it being setup like this?
And you can be assured the black ones are just as bad. They just hide it better!Just look how nasty this Diamond was.
Check the coinbox. They're almost always in there.ahh bummer, I only have two the tang pieces. The one for the controls and the one for the back cover. I’ll msg KC and see if he has others laying around... maybe I’ll get lucky.
checked lastnight when I started taking it apart. KC responded and said he'd look to see if he can find them for me.Check the coinbox. They're almost always in there.ahh bummer, I only have two the tang pieces. The one for the controls and the one for the back cover.

Yup mine the tangs were in the coin box.Check the coinbox. They're almost always in there.
Dam I never asked about locks, if I ever pull them off cabs I sell them for $7 each since that's what it costs me to replace with my generic locks. I don't really have any right now though, USPS shipped the last batch I sent to the wrong person and I had to send out my only spares to replace themThe official lock is the LY1153 from a company named "First".Taito stocks them, a full set (5 locks) will run ya over 100$.Any hints on finding a new set of locks for it as well? Generic ones found in the US work?
You ONLY get the locks, they don't sell the tangs (also required).
A full set pictured above, 1-Ushape, 1-Lshape, 3-ovalshape.
You can't use generic tubular locks commonly found in the US because the cab is Japanese (ie it uses Metric not English).
the "wood" inside the cab is a shelf... Where are you going to place the X unit if not on that shelf?Cab power supplies sit at the bottom so it can't go their.What’s the difference between the motherboard mounting on the MDF wood inside the case and it being setup like this?
The full story about locks is in truth only 4 of them are actually LY1153's, the 5th is a high security dimple lock/key exclusive to the coin box and different per-customer/arcade operator.Dam I never asked about locks
