Hi Folks,

I want to get my second Chihiro setup at home so I can work on the excellent card reader emulator written by @winteriscoming to add more capabilities so that it never errors out but gives the ability to change cards, etc.

I have a NAMCO FCA card but need the "USB A-XH harness" cable from the chihrio over to the 5p connector on the FCA board.

I did some searches but came up empty - can someone send me a store that has one? :)

Thanks!

Matt
 
That looks like the right pinout according to the wire colors in my cab, but something about the connector looks off. I can't tell if that would mate up correctly into the slots.

My FCA board has an unpopulated USB B port right behind that one. It might be worthwhile just populating it and using a more accessible USB cable.

Maybe some kind of 90 degree port could work? This is an example, but I don't think the 2 side tabs would match up: https://www.ebay.com/p/6-X-PC-Parts...8%26rvr_ts%3D4ff4a6c21680ac797943b59dffa7d8fa
 
I don't think anyone would be mad at you for making life easier with a quality of life improvement to your FCA board. Incidentally the other kind is what was in both my WMMT cabs and BOTH of them had issues with that connector being flaky and pins popping out or wires breaking at the pins. I didn't even bother researching the connector specs to incorporate it into my latest MEGA JVS revision. I figured swapping to standard USB cable was going to be an improvement.
