Topper cables needed
« on: August 01, 2016, 02:26:27 pm »
Trying to connect newer topper to my older Game King. I have attached pictures of what I am trying to do. Looking for anyone who might have the cables I need. Any help would be appreciated.  :Scratch-Head:
Thanks, Jim

One of those is the candle connection.  The 4 pin  molex is power.........Orange is 24V red is 12V.  That USB cant be used in your machine.

I got the candles to work, it looks like the white multi pin would be to be converted to molex? So if I simply extended the 4 pin to a 12v spot on the machine that should work?
Thanks, Jim

You need both 24V and 12V for backlighting and the LED light ring.

So if I'm understanding, the 4 pin short cord that has a molex on one end and whatever plug that goes into the topper would need to be split. The red going to a 12v source and the orange going to a 24v source, black being ground. Are there both those sources on the back board of the game king? Where could I buy a split cord like that? What does the white plug do?
Thanks for all the info, I'm a slow learner with this stuff!

You never mentioned it but from the looks of the first photo you are using a octagon shaped topper with a light bar perhaps.  That topper was meant for an AVP type machine where the colors interact with the game by way of the USB port.  It can still be used with your machine though.  Just won't interact with the game. The last photo you posted of the power distribution board has the power you need.  The 2 pin connector is 24V (orange power wire) and the 4 pin has 12V (red power wire).  So you are correct, all you need is a harness that splits off and connects to those connectors on that board. 

That multi pin white connector is not used so disregard it.

Thanks for all the information, I will post a picture when I actually get it installed and working!
