Pandoras box pause function


iroczvinnie

Question

So I've been using the pandoras box 6 arcade JAMMA version for a few weeks now and it working well.

 

Only thing I can't figure out is how to activate the pause game function. I have turned the function on in the setup menu (and checked that it is on), but can't work out how to activate it when in a game.

 

The instructions are clear for most of the functions, but not this.

 

Anyone know how to pause a game?

A quick google found this :unsure

 

Q: What is the coin button for?

 

A: when the console is on free play, this is the pause fuction, when the console is not on free play, this is normal coin function. insert coins.

Thanks Brad - I think it could be my cab wiring?

 

Although it was a cab that spent it's life on site, it doesn't have a coin button. The coin mechanism works, (when not in free play, it adds credits) but putting a coin through on free play doesn't pause. I thought it would send the same signal as a coin button, but maybe not?

Coin switch is maybe not what is required. It may be the service switch. The Pandoras have two coin inputs and a service switch input.

I suspect you need to try using the service switch input to pause. The difference between a coin switch and a service switch is a coin switch advances the coin meters where as a service switch does not. That is why they use different inputs on the board.
