Important: Selecting the Correct HDMI Converter and Speaker Connection
To ensure you receive the appropriate parts, please follow these steps when selecting your package:
HDMI Converter Selection:The correct HDMI converter depends on your monitor. You can find the monitor number on the back of the monitor, but you will need to open the back of the arcade machine to see it.
Speaker Connection Selection:Determine the location of your speakers:
If your speakers are under the marquee: Select the 3.5mm headphone jack connection option.
If your speakers are in the control deck: Select the JST connector option.
Note: This does not apply to Partycades, as their requirements may differ. For Partycades, please verify whether you need a JST connector or a 3.5mm headphone jack connector.
If you're unsure about any of these details, we're here to help! Simply send us clear photos of your setup along with a good description, and we'll assist you in making the right selection.
Selecting the correct options will help us provide the proper specialty cables for your setup.

Note with Mini PC setup only:
I
f purchasing a mini PC with this kit, we recommend using an amplifier or soundbar for optimal audio, as Batocera settings can make finding the right audio output complex. The Raspberry Pi option provides a simpler setup, using the same method for audio output as the mini PC. However, mini PCs sometimes present challenges in finding the correct combination of audio profiles and outputs, and there have been cases where users were unable to achieve the desired audio configuration. Using this setup, you won't be able to use the factory volume switch; instead, audio must be controlled through the amp or soundbar. This issue stems primarily from Batocera settings, not the hardware, and we hope future updates will offer a simpler solution. Due to the variations in mini PC audio settings, we cannot guarantee a specific audio profile-output match.

Pre-Wired Inlet Switch for Arcade1Up – Seamless Power Solution
Upgrade your Arcade1Up setup with our Pre-Wired Inlet Switch for a clean, streamlined mod! This custom inlet switch is designed to integrate effortlessly with your Arcade1Up power switch, providing a professional look and easy operation.
Features:
Plug-and-Play Design: Pre-wired and ready to connect directly to your Arcade1Up power switch for hassle-free installation.
Versatile Power Management: Includes a power cord that plugs into the inlet switch and directly into your wall outlet. It also provides the option to connect a power strip inside the cabinet for powering additional devices.
Concealed Setup: Keep the power management hidden inside your Arcade1Up cabinet, with only a sleek power cord visible to plug into the wall.
If your Arcade1Up cabinet uses a momentary power switch, you'll need to purchase a compatible switch to work with this inlet switch mod. A momentary switch returns to its original position after being pressed or activated, unlike a latching switch. No worries—we offer the proper switch separately, so you can purchase everything you need from us for a complete mod!
Due to high demand, we're working diligently to keep up with inventory. Each unit is crafted with extreme care, as the wiring process is time-consuming and done with precision. Grab yours today and take your Arcade1Up mod to the next level!
