Diamond topper USB-A port?
« on: December 08, 2025, 01:56:49 pm »
Hi everyone!  :dancing_2:

I have an IGT G23 that came with a diamond topper that I've had to remove (where it's going doesn't have the height clearance to keep it).  My plan is to make it stand alone in the "man cave".  I know it's pulling 24vdc from the system, but can anyone tell me what the USB port is? (older style USB-A).  It's a static display, so not one of the video ones...

The only connections were for the candle and the 2x12vdc power wires.

Thanks in advance!

I'm confused by the way you're describing that plug.
Which one do you mean?

Ahh sorry, I still had it wrong - Using your visual (thanks for that), it is USB 2.0 Type B

Oh those square-ish ones? haha
Remember they used them for desktop computer printer cords?
We use them for flashing MEI bill validator heads.

Now you need the schematics or drawings of the topper or topbox wiring.
Check and see if those are located in the NLG File System?
I went go look....couldn't find it.

I had to pull one outta da pile and take it apart...lol
I will say right off that I'll betcha 12volts goes to the LEDs on the 751-28-500W board, and 12volts jumps out on that ugly harness for the surrounding LEDs?

Here's a short video I made for you.
Disregard the voltages I mentioned in it.
I double checked them with a multimeter only after I made the video...>>>
https://youtube.com/shorts/Vux_VsVqU1Q?

The power is coming from the 4-pin connector harness with the two pairs of wires on it.
Orange w/Black stripe and solid Orange=24 vdc
Red and Black w/ Red stripe=12 vdc

I think that USB is for some sort of communication to the brainbox to make the lights go crazy at certain times, for ex.  like when hitting a jackpot or something...you don't need it for the mancave...the leds make the topper.
Bottom photo is the back of the glitter board and the pin outs of that 4-pin power plug.

4.Orange w/Black stripe (-)     3.Solid Orange (+) 24vdc

2.Red w/Black stripe (-)          1.Solid Red (+) 12vdc
