Pandora's Box 6 Family Edition Mame Cab Conversion


dcervante13

Question

Hi There

 

I have LAI mame cab that I want to convert to PB6. I got the PB6 family edition and wiring harness but the microswitch connectors for the buttons and joysticks are different. Button connectors seems to be much smaller than standard arcade buttons and the joystick has a five pin connector.

 

Upon looking on Epay i found the below. Question is : Can I use them for PB6? I asked the seller but does not seem to know.

 

Thanks in advance

What you've linked to is a pack including what appear to be zero delay (or clones of zero delay) encoders. ZD encoders are joystick encoders and seem like they'd be pretty good for RPI based builds. I doubt that they will work with a PB6 (or any PB) which from what I've seen don't seem to have USB ports.

 

Maybe put a link to the PB6 you're talking about - that would help me anyway. Others might be more help.

The PB6 I am talking about is the original from ali express https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32913740600.html?spm=2114.12010608.0.0.3aff6392cwzQ4G

 

I just want to connect my existing mame cab buttons and joysticks to this harness ( https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32845789038.html?spm=2114.12010608.0.0.19636392BONvrJ )but the actual connectors to the microswitches are smaller than standard. My Mame cab connectors seem to be 4mm and the PB6 connectors are about 2 mm. also the joysticks i have have 4 microswitches but the harness connector has a 5pin connector. for the joysticks PB6 does have USB connection for other joysticks.
