This isn't confusing, everything's in the items description. I offer two adapters/modules for the HAS that utilize the PlayStation AV Multi Out:

1. PS2 Scart adapter - outputs only RGB video and you need a PlayStation 2 Scart cable for it. The PlayStation 1 will work, but you need to close 3 jumpers on the HAS (not recommended, just use your PS2 Scart cable).

2. RGB->S-Video/Composite Video adapter. With this adapter you can use your PlayStation Composite Video cable, PlayStation S-Video cable and PlayStation 1 Scart cable. No need to tinker with jumpers or anything like that.

The adapter can be also easily upgraded to output Component Video (YPbPr). More on this in due time.

That's it really.

8pin mini din to 8 pin mini din cables

I love these double shielded cables from Kraydad (eBay).

8pin mini DIN to HD15 adapter

Unless you intend to use a Taito F3 system I do NOT recommend investing in this.F3's sync is a odd duck, and this "VGA port method" is a work around only necessary in this particular/exact (HAS+OSSC) setup.

That was exactly what I was hoping to do...which was use the multi F3 with the HAS or at least be able too. Thanks for the Kraydad link!

@RGB after trying 150 different boards, I have two that don’t work with the HAS. Buccaneers is one and Heated Barrel is the other. They don’t seem to work on the HAS, regardless of how I have set the output.

For example, HB plugs in and just leaves the red led light on the HAS. THE OSSC flickers between sync and sync lost. I’m not asking about the OSSC point, but I don’t even think the HAS even is seeing the PCB.

Both boards work with JNX JAMMA set up and SG.

Any ideas? 3.1v HAS.

Did you try unprocessed sync jumper from the HAS yet?

What about 75ohm jumper and using SCART-in port of the OSSC AV1:RGBs?

Have you tried increasing the h and or v threashholds in advanced menu of the OSSC?

Hello everyone, quick question, would the universal brook board work to play ps4 and connect to the HAS on the same fight stick ?

So I finally got a PSU for my boards today. Is this set up wrong or would I be causing any issues. Using a OSSC, with a HD Retro Vision Genesis 2 Component cable with the PS2 adapter. I am getting all the resolutions to work all the way up to 5x

 

[Kano]

@zionfarm not that i can think of. Should be fine set up wise. But @RGB would have the definitive answer to that when he gets to it.

I haven't tested such setup, but why do you want to use the HD Retro Vision Genesis 2 Component cable instead of just a standard PS2 Scart cable? You're doing RGB->Component->OSSC, and with the PS2 Scart cable you could go directly RGB->OSSC. That's what my PS2 adapter was designed for, and it's my recommendation.

Thanks Jassin, I did try both those settings but I forgot to switch to the SCART connection. The CSync needed to be set to "Regenerated" and the SCART connection had to be used.

The VSync status LED (VS_S) stays on and red though, any ideas? I mean, for all other PCBs this LED goes off (at least from what I recall).

This got Heated Barrel to work, next I'll dig out Buccaneers to test it the same way.

 

[RGB]

I got Heated Barrel to work on a CRT long time ago, though I never had nor tested Buccaneers. I believe the JNX supergun passess the CSync with no buffering (only with the resistor to set the correct Vpp), which seems to do the trick for the OSSC. There's no such option on your HAS version, and Jassin's got it because he's got the older HAS version. Do you have some modules for the HAS? Because if you do, there might be a way to bypass the CSync, too. This will be a bit too off topic, so please PM me about it. The VS_S LED has nothing to do with it.

The newest version of the HAS will offer unprocessed, buffered and regenerated CSync, just like the V3, but done a bit differently

Because I don't own a PS2 scart cable. I do own a PS1 scart cable though.

They're the same thing. You can use a PS1 SCART cable on PS2 and a PS2 SCART cable on PS1.

 

[Stupid Dufus]

As long as the cable is built correctly, a scart cable can be shared between PS1 and PS2.

Otherwise:
PS1 specific cables should have 220uF caps on the RGB lines, whereas PS2 specific cables should have none.

And I think shared cables can have 1000uF caps? It's been a while since I looked all that up though.

The total capacitance of 330uF (HAS) and 1000uF (cable) in series will be ~248uF, so this should work just fine.

Hello all!

Need some assistance from the experts.
I have used my HAS V3,1 a lot the last couple of months and it has worked flawlessly with everything I have used with it.

Started my CPS3 for some 3rd strike, but some of the buttons don’t work.
Up, down, left and right + start and coin work, but none of the other buttons respond.
Really weird...

Picture and sound works perfectly. Power is a stable 5v with a Suzo Happ PSU.
Tried with a custom arcade stick. Neo Geo CD pad and my Undamned USB decoder with a brook universal fighting board modded fightstick.
None work on my HAS V3,1.
All work with my HAS V3,2

Any tips?

 

[RGB]

Have you tried to remap the button layout?

 

[BuddyC]

Never had a reason to try it, but will give it a go!

 

[BuddyC]

You are the man Mike!!
I must have entered remap mode by mistake and saved the configuration by pressing start.... I am an idiot....

All working perfectly again. Thanks a bunch!

 

[shorjewken]

Has anyone built an enclosure for this Supergun which includes Undamned converters and PSU within the enclosure? Sorry if this is something I just missed in the posts!

I haven't seen a completed project yet... Someone was working on a metal/wood case but I forget who it was, it wasn't finished anyway more or less a 3d/cad draft.

Have you tried to remap the button layout?

Haha yea I was going to say, anytime you have a problem with buttons (and only buttons) on a HAS check your remap function first.
In the beta version of the Darksoft MVS Multi he had us changing slots/calling the menu by pressing Start+A+B, this of course caused havoc with both the HAS and RECO because it put them into remap mode.

I was the first one to report it to DS, and it was changed after I did so (to only be joystick combos + Start which was my suggestion)... You're welcome!
