My understanding of this JAMMA business is finally starting to click in my head! I read the install instructions for the converter a few times while staring at the pic you posted of the JAMMA connector... so if I dont have that white video adapter pin I am going to have to splice off of the JAMMA connector to the RGB in of the converter. I think anyways. Now I am just hoping there is an easy way to power the converter.

You got it. Power can also be drawn from that Jamma connector, run a volt meter to be sure. Make sure you keep the Jamma Game Controller leads intact.

For power though no need to, you can always go this route too.

Will the connecting end of that AC adapter attach to the converter as is? Or would I have to cut the tip off and manually connect the wires?

Just like video you need to make a new plug. Look at the diagram in your PDF.

I just got word that the cab is being delivered tomorrow! I'll post some pics when it gets here... maybe in a new thread.. so look for those!

Congrats, looking forward to the pics and later on the mod.

Oh, don't make a new thread, continue here so all the previous information doesn't have to researched all over again.

So while randomly browsing last night and I come across ANOTHER converter. It appears to be exactly the same as the other, but uses red PCB rather than green. However is does come with a few extra wiring harnesses that the other one didn't, that would perhaps make the install easier. I think I might order this one instead, what do you guys think?

Its finally here!






The monitor housing is roughly 19.5" x 13.5" should be plenty of room for a 19" to 20" LCD

That ...... that ....... that is a beautiful work of art! Like the guard dog.

Hes a good guard dog for sure, but I have to find something to guard my furniture from him. Notice the chunk missing from the couch... I laid the law down to him about my MVS though.. no licking or sniffing!
