  • 1x PS3/PC Zero Delay USB Encoder
  • 1x Set of .110" Wiring

  • Mode button toggles joystick input and left analog/POV hat switch input (useful for games or emulators that require one or the other)

  • Activate AUTO FIRE or TURBO mode by pressing the desired input buttons and AUTO or TURBO button at the same time. The Mode LED will flash as the auto fire is in use. 12Hz input frequency.

  • No special joystick drivers needed.

USE MULTIPLE PCBS FOR M.A.M.E.

M.A.M.E. - or "Multi Arcade Machine Emulator" is commonly used when building multi-game arcade cabinets.  You can connect multiple zero delay PCBs together.  In M.A.M.E., each PCB will register its buttons and joystick as "Joy 1", "Joy 2" and so forth.  Building a 2, 3 or 4 player cabinet for M.A.M.E. is now a rather simple affair.

Custom Wiring

This Zero Delay Encoder comes with .110" wiring and a 5 pin ribbon cable by default. This wiring is suitable for Japanese style joysticks and push buttons such as the Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick and Sanwa Push Buttons. You can change the wiring for your Joystick if you would like.

By default comes with:

  • 12x .110" Wires for your push buttons
  • 1x 5 pin ribbon cable for your joystick

Mix and Match the joystick wiring for your Zero Delay encoder:

  • .187" connections for American Style Joysticks (ie. Suzo Happ Competition Joysticks)
  • 5 pin ribbon cable for Japanese style Joysticks (ie. JLF-TP-8YT joysticks.)
