Title: Need help with 60-1 jamma set up Post by: KYPinhead on April 01, 2013, 03:55:13 PM Hello all,
I'm trying to convert a Centipede upright to a 60-1. So far I have done the following: Installed & wired a 16 switching PS. Wired the jamma harness to the PS & player 1 & 2 start buttons, player 1 & 2 fire buttons & the 4 joystick switches. Plugged in PC monitor Everything is wired properly, but none of the buttons work. The game boots up properly, I just cant do anything from that point. I did put bit 4 of the DIPSW in the on position, it went into test mode, but switches still won't work. I did notice on the Icade pcb that LED 4 stays on, is that normal? I just bought this kit a week ago. Any help would be appreciated!

Title: Re: Need help with 60-1 jamma set up Post by: KYPinhead on April 01, 2013, 10:22:46 PM That's impressive. Probably not the board then.

Title: Re: Need help with 60-1 jamma set up Post by: KYPinhead on April 02, 2013, 12:29:26 AM I checked the harness for continuity, actually from the board traces to the switches, checked out fine.
Title: Re: Need help with 60-1 jamma set up Post by: KYPinhead on April 02, 2013, 02:16:00 PM Problem solved! Coin 1 switch must be connected to add credits (I had coin 2 switch wired but not 1). The switches won't work without credits. Hopefully this thread will help other newbies.
