Champion
Coming soon...
I need to do more testing on this once the CPS2 testing is complete
I have attached the gerber files
Here is a list of parts needed:
I recommend using a Raspberry Zero W
This is the case I am using for it:
You will also need a 8GB microSD card (I recommend Sandisk)
Here is the Raspberry Pi image you will need to load to the RPi. Just unzip it and load the img file using Win32DiskImager
TaitoF3-Pi Raspberry Pi Image ***** THIS LINK DOES NOT WORK YET
Note: If the link for the image does not work, copy the link and paste in a new window
The pi user is: pi
The pi password is: f3multi
NOTE: The pcb connects directly to the 40pin GPIO pins on the RPi - make sure to match up pin 1
Connect a USB to microUSB cable from the multi selector to your RPi in order to power everything from one place
The first time you load it up, it will default to a hotspot with the name TaitoF3-Pi
Hotspot password is: taitof3multi
Connect to the hotspot and then go to your browser on your phone and go to any web address (eg: gg.com)
The web interface should appear and you should see the games listed
You can also go to the Tools and select Wifi Configuration to join it to your home wifi network instead of using a hotspot.
You will be asked to select your wifi network and enter your password. You then need to click Apply and Reboot
This will reboot the RPi and it will connect to your home wifi if your credentials are correct.
