MultiJAMMA Controller
(Click for larger image)
|
MultiJAMMA is
a system designed to allow multiple JAMMA games
to be installed in a single cabinet and be
instantly selected by the player with the push of
a button. Each
MultiJAMMA "Controller" (shown at left)
is capable of selecting up to 8 different JAMMA
boardsets without needing to turn the power off
or physically switch game boards or connections.

MultiJAMMA
Controller Features:
- Each Controller board
can switch up to 8 JAMMA games with the
push of a button.
- Works for
coin-operated or free-play. (Coin drops
only credit the selected game. Service
switch only credits the selected game.)
- Free-play mode
generates "virtual credits" so
it works with game boards that don't have
a built-in free-play setting. (Early
classic games, etc.)
- New
feature! Allows
boards with or without built-in free-play
settings to be easily mixed and matched
-- just press Start and the game starts!
- New
feature!
Game-select switch included on MultiJAMMA
main board for easier installation and
trouble-shooting. (No need to go around
front and hit the game-select button when
working inside the cabinet.
- Microprocessor
controlled for fast, flexible switching.
- No "dead
spots". The Controller will only
cycle through the number of game boards
attached (2 to 8), so if you run with
less than 8 boards you won't see a black
screen when switching over
"empty" slots.
- New
feature!
Remembers the last selected game and
automatically powers-up with it selected
the next time the game is turned on.
- Expandable. Start with
a two-game switcher and then add
additional Switch Boards as your needs
and board collection grows.
- Controller board
includes two 12V fan outputs for
additional cabinet cooling if desired.
- All game boards are
powered for instantaneous switching and
no "bootup" time. A must for
location/coin-op use!
- Uses inexpensive and
reliable "PC" type power
supplies.

"Switchboards"
(pictured at right) plug into each game's edge
connector and then connect to the MultiJAMMA
Controller by way of an included cable. Switchboards provide power and
signal routing for each game back to the
Controller.
One switchboard is required
for each game you wish to run in a MultiJAMMA
setup. The base configuration of the MultiJAMMA
includes two switchboards to get you started.
