JAMMA CONTROL-BOX PRO /JCBOX PRO Function Introduction:

—— Front ——​

— Standard adjustment card function
1. Mono/stereo switch: Choose according to the actual situation of the arcade board. Most arcade game boards are mono, and the large base of snk mvs can support stereo (switch). Default is mono.

2. Volume knob: Control the volume. Try to adjust the volume knob on the game board to a moderate level first to keep the volume of each game board consistent. This card has built-in audio isolation transformer and resistor voltage divider, which is safe and stable.

3. Sync shift: Controls the left and right or up and down movement of the image. The up and down movement function can only be enabled if the left and right movement function is turned on (try not to use the up and down movement adjustment)

4. RGB gain: Adjusts the brightness of the image. It affects all signal outputs of the standard video output card. The RGB signal strength of some arcade game boards is different. For example, the image of Mortal Kombat is darker, and the game images produced by PSIKYO are mostly brighter. When using the newly added game board for the first time, please adjust the RGB gain to a small value before turning it on. After turning it on, slowly increase the gain to a satisfactory level. The original RGB is output by voltage division buffer.

The adjustment function is modularly designed, which is more convenient for later circuit optimization and upgrading.



— Control module interface
The control interface supports up to 4 players, player 1 and player 2 support up to 6 strike keys, and support the setting functions on the left side of the panel (such as button combinations, control direction changes and continuous shooting functions), and player 3 and player 4 support up to 4 strike keys.

The modular design can use different control modules, and other non-standard controllers such as mahjong game kits may be designed later, with high freedom.

— Settings and test panels
The upper left side of the front is the settings area, and the lower left side is the test area.
The specific functions of the setting area are as follows: (only affects players 1-2)
CONTROLLER CONFIG:
USING the LAYOUT BUTTON:
NORM = is standard CAPCOM 6 button
SNK = is standard SNK layout
STG = is standard SHUMPS(Shooting Game) Mode (The above three buttons can be set continuously. But the following three buttons cannot be continuous.
Because some shooting games need to hold down to store energy.)

USING the ANGLE BUTTON:
NORM = Standard (Clockwise) Up, Right, Down, Left
90°
180°
270°
(This just rotates the angle of the control direction, which is helpful for games where you cannot place the monitor screen vertically.)



CUSTOM MAPPING:
HOLD the LAYOUT BUTTON for 3 seconds.
All six lights will be on, this is entering CUSTOM MODE
At this time you need to press the buttons 1-6 to your desired layout.
Press the LAYOUT BUTTON again to to exit CUSTOM MODE.
IF you want to set Player 2(2P), you also need to complere the button setting 1-6 during the CUSTOM MODE.

CONTINUOS SWITCHES aka (RAPID FIRE)
Flip switch 1 for RAPID FIRE on Button 1
Flip switch 2 for RAPID FIRE on Button 2
Flip switch 3 for RAPID FIRE on Button 3

The lower test area is convenient for system background test settings and function troubleshooting, and is convenient for emergency testing when there is no external controller.

—— Back ——​

— Standard video output card
The standard video output card includes RGB, color difference component, S-video, and CVBS (composite video). RGB and color difference components are switched by switches. Note that the VGA here does not support standard definition and high definition signals (currently it is recommended to use an external scaler for high definition signals, such as RetroTINK 4K&5x, xRGBmini, ossc, etc.). It can connect RGBs RGBHV SCART and other interface signals that support 15k video, and is compatible with almost all jamma game boards. S-video and CVBS (composite video) support color format N/P switching. Since the signals of many arcade games are not standard, S-video and CVBS may not be friendly to individual games, but most of them can run well. In addition, the image of S-video is very clean, and CVBS may produce some obvious crawling and interference in some cases. Of the two, Y/C S-video is more recommended.

Modularity allows for more freedom in post-production settings, and video output cards suitable for different application scenarios can be designed, such as video cards that are directly connected to arcade crt screens, multi-channel RGB simultaneous output video cards, etc.

— 3-4PLAYER EXT CONNECTOR / KICK EXT CONNECTOR
The player 3-4 extension interface is connected to the 3-4 extension board from the black idc-30pin on the back. This interface can also support the kick function.
There is also a simple cn2:8pin kick interface. It is recommended that a separate kick cable be connected from the JAMMA extension board.

Note: The ext/int switch setting of the kick, here is a simple way to use it. If the kick interface next to the switch is not used, please set the switch to int. If the kick interface next to the switch is connected to the game board and it is determined that this game requires this function, then set the switch to ext.

Case:
Player A connected the JAMMA extension cable to the jjcbox, and used the kick cable to connect the kick interface on the JAMMA extension board to the kick interface of the Street Fighter 2 game board. At this time, the kick switch on the back of the jjcbox needs to be set to int, and the kick switch on the JAMMA extension board needs to be set to ext.
Player B uses a standard double-headed jamma extension cable to connect the game board, and directly connects the jjcbox and the game board with a kick cable. At this time, the kick switch on the back of the jjcbox needs to be set to ext.
When not using the kick external cable, please set all switches to int, otherwise some games may lack buttons. For example, snk mvs lacks button 4.
Player 3-4 expansion Some game boards need to be set to on to support 4 players, such as Captain Commando of cps1, which needs to be turned on the 8th switch of dip B on the game board.
Interfaces that support more 3-4 player game boards will be designed later (if you need it. Please provide the corresponding game board name, manual or interface definition).


— Jamma interface
The standard Jamma interface is retained on the lower left of the back of the JJCBOX Pro, and an extension cable with standard Jamma plugs on both ends can be used. There is also a set of dedicated interfaces, IDC 40pin and white 6pin interfaces, which can use the JJCBOX-specific JAMMA extension (same as the first generation JJCBOX).
An additional 8pin DC power backup interface is added, for example, Namco 246/256 power supply can also use it.

— JVS power and data interface
The lower right of the back of the JJCBOX Pro is the 12pin JVS power interface and USB I/O interface. (Same as the original jjcbox)
The JVS-USB interface is used to control the JVS host. It can control JVS hosts such as (TESTED) SEGA NAOMI 1, SEGA NAOMI 2, RINGEDGE 1, RINGEDGE 2, Namco 246/256, Taito Type X1 , Taito Type X2, etc.
12-hole JVS power output, including negative 5V, 3.3V, 5V, 12V (CBOX can power Naomi 1/2 ，Namco 246/256 with custom harness)

— Voltage correction
There are two DC voltage correction knobs on the left side of the jcbox pro ac power input interface. Generally, do not change it unless the power transmission path is long or the game board has voltage requirements. The upper and lower limits of the adjustment are about 0.8v respectively. Don't worry. Use thicker jamma power cables as much as possible and ensure that each connector has good contact. The JAMMA extension for jjcbox is a good choice.
Note that 5v and 3.3v are their reference values, so don't deviate too much.

— AC power interface
The AC power input of jcbox pro supports a wide voltage of 100-240V, which is universal worldwide, and uses the common IEC power interface, which is convenient for replacing various power cable plugs, and is equipped with a power switch and replaceable fuse.

Man, I bought a supergun and some accessories from rgbslab.com in the beginning of this year aleady, the quality is good but your products looks to be on a whole different level quality and craftsmanship! I'm tempted to buy your products but I'm still recovering financially. @axunworks, please keep me in mind if you do have sales or discounts.

Okay, thank you for the compliment.
