Home Arcade System

how do you guys deal with boards that output stereo?
Like Konami, 1slot MVS etc.

Do you run a separate high/low converter to get to RCA?
Or could I use one of the additional header on the HAS to feed stereo to it and output via the RCA plug?
That would really tidy up the setup ;)
1slot MVS all are mono (at least at the JAMMA end). The stereo ones are 2-4 and 6-slots. For those, I have a JAMMA extension (bought to RGB along with my HAS, IIRC) which has some jumpers to change it from JAMMA to MVS audio setup.
Some 1slots have a 4pin JST NH header for amplified stereo
MV-1F and FS for example ;)
 
yeah would be cool if the HAS had a 4pin stereo input header where I can feed the amplified stereo out from my boards, and let the HAS attenuate to line level for the RCA plugs.
Would that be an option @RGB?

Boards I want to run with it:
- Konami stuff, Simpsons, Xmen, Turtles etc.
- NeoGeo MVS 1 slot
- Atomiswave

CPS2 already has RCA line level out, so that's all good as it is :)
Don't for get the speaker-level stereo from the Taito F3 as well.
 
whut? 1slot with Stereo from Jamma?
Does that have similar Jamma pinout to multislots then?
The 1F and 1FS motherboards give both stereo and mono output over jamma selectable via a switch on the board.

I believe JNX has tutorials to mod many other boards to obtain stereo via Jamma.
 
I always assumed the stereo/mono switch was to switch between mono over Jamma or stereo over the 4pin header (similar to the mono/qsound option in CPS2).
So what you are saying now that this switch sends Stereo to the Jamma edge similar to a multislot?
If that is true my whole life has been a lie ?(

Also I recall setting the switch to MONO once while having every connected to the 4pin stereo header, I'm quite positive I got MONO sound from the 4pin header then...

The MV1F outputs mono or stereo over the jamma harness, which is dictated by a switch on the motherboard. In mono mode, jamma pin 10 outputs the mono signal with pin L being grounded. In stereo mode, pin 10 outputs the left channel, pin L the right channel with a common ground.

Edit: just spotted your post with manual, let me read it...
 
It works fine over Jamma.

I use it in mono on my cab and stereo on the Sentinel with no issues. It’s just a case of flicking the stereo switch on the Supergun and also the motherboard.

Taken from JNX site: “The MV1-FS board does give Stereo Sound off the jamma edge via a switch as well as via the Headphone connector”.
 
No I am really confused guys...

So what you are saying is that you get Stereo over Jamma (like MVS pinout), but other than that it remains Jamma, so test button is still at Jamma position.
Resulting in a board which is also not compatible with MVS wiring?
 
Yes, stereo over jamma harness in a single slot.

Yes, single slots are standard jamma. The select button is mapped to button 5 in an extended jamma pinout. Oh and button 4 follows from button 3, not technically standard but it doesn't break anything.

Yes, single slots are different to multi slot MVS pinout.
 
So i have a newbie uestion. Stero with standard jamma run and how to with HAS and OSSC? Stereo run with S16B sega & CPS 1?
 
Any chance of you making harnesses for the HAS to work with Mortal Kombat boards?
Get a JNX Raiden (CPS2 to MK1/2/3/U3 style kicks) board...

Sorry to bring up an old post. But am I right in assuming, that with a JNX Raiden, I can use the CPS2 kick harness that I grabbed from RGB and then plug my MKI and MKII kick harnesses into it to connect the extra buttons for MK with the HAS?
 
Guys @RGB recently posted link to download the new HAS manual but i cant find it. Can somebody tell me which thread and the post number is at please.
 
Yes, that's the one.

The HAS set comes with a PSU cable that joins the PSU and HAS. You only need to connect the PSU to the wall. Computer power cable (ideally with a switch, like this) with one end stripped will do.

It's good to crimp fork terminals on the PSU wires, too.

================================================

The Mean Well MWP-606 and SUZO 42PP0606 PSUs are identical and seem to be the most popular among the HAS users.. Is there anybody willing to design a cover for the screw terminal for this PSU that could be 3D printed? :)
is the prima power original or is it a chinece clone of the original meanwell? what parts of the psu are the filters? (picture please). my 606 has a lot of open holes, what parts can be placed there and why?
 
The Prima Power looks identical to Mean Well (there's even Mean Well branding on the PCBs silkscreen), so they probably had a deal. Some Sanwa PSUs are Mean Well, too.

As for the other part of your question - I didn't examine the PSU in such detail to be able to give you answer to that.
 
Ah thanks!

I am talking about U2 and stuff there. it looks same as your picture. maybe somebody else knows
