I have a 60 in 1 pcb and I have a switching power supply and the jamma harness. How do I connect the jamma harness to my existing upright Pacman cabinet? I believe that I have the switching power supply wired correctly, I need a decription as to how to hook the jamma harness to my existing monitor on the Pacman cabinet. I was going to use a seperate cord for the ac on my switching power supply and keep the existing power supply in the cabinet to power the monitor (unless someone knows a better way to do so) I see that there are led lights on my 60 in 1 arcade classics board, which led light should be lit once I apply power to the game? I tried to use a 19" computer lcd monitor at first (which plugs directly into the 60 in 1 board) but the screen said no signal when I powered it up. I would actually rather use the computer monitor if i could, if there is a way to get it to accept the video signal from the 60 in 1 board.

Thanks,

I may have made some progress, I found the pin outs to the pacman connector and have them running to my jamma portion of video wires. I powered the game up and it went through a long sequence of check-ok tests and then it went to a screen that says "service next" at the bottom of a screen of red, green, blue and white squares. Any idea as to what this is?

Thanks,

just make sure your pac man power supply is not putting any power to 60 /1 . those old pac man boards  get ac from the p/s which is changed to dc on the old p/m board , take your time doing it its not  hard, once you do 1 you,ll   be wiring them in 30 mins tops

I am using seperate power, the original cabinet power supply for the game monitor and I have the switching power supply powering the 60 in board. I believe I am getting close to completing the main wiring process, but when I power it all up I get a scrolling "verify ok" checklist then it comes to the color bar test and at the bottom of the screen it says "service next" How do I advance from this screen?

Thanks,

check dip swicth,s  i sent you last book i had with board but it worked here in jammed game there might also be a button  making ,it  putingt in in service mode

The dip switches are set correctly on the board. So far, all I have wired into the jamma harness is player 1 button, player 2 button, and all 4 of the joystick switches. Do I need something else wired in to get it out of this "service next" mode?

check your wires make sure they are on  right lugs sounds like service sw is closed  are you have a ground touching

do I need to wire the  orange sevice switch wire from the jamma harness to something? Can't tell where it goes. Still stuck on the "service next" screen

touch sevice wire to  ground on other side of 1st player start button  quickly   i still  think you got  it stuck in setup some how send me a pic of what you have on screen

Thanks for the help.
