More and more I'm taking notice of this system & think I may have to invest in a Vewlix!..
If I'm buying the hardware for the first time.. Does it come with all the relevant cables etc to hook up into a Vewlix?.
Thanks folks.. I'm a little out of sync with all this new tech! :oops:
WANTED! .. Any Tatty old candy cab!.

Yes, it comes with a power cable and a DVI-D cable.

Just make sure that your Vewlix is equipped with a JVS I/O board, and you're good.

That exA-Arcdaia Vewlix harness is to be used with the exA I/O board which is out of stock. It might work with a JVS to JAMMA converter (in place of the exA I/O board) though. But in any case, you must ensure that your Vewlix has the correct wiring. Another solution would be to equip your Vewlix with a Taito JVS I/O board.

By the way, you could also wire your controls to a USB encoder and use this: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=43732
This might be the cheapest solution.

Earlier Vewlix models came with Taito's standard JVS I/O, which is what you want. Many were swapped out for the Fast I/O for Nesica. Just make sure it has the former and you're good to go.

Was out of stock when I placed my order, but looks like they made more available now.
All in all good for me… It saved me from myself :awe:

The cash I saved from shipping that big **** pop with DHL is about half the cost of Cotton Rock n’ roll…. 8-)
