About

Home Arcade System, “HAS” for short, is a device that allows you to play original arcade game PCBs without the need of owning a real arcade cabinet. Think of it as of a game console, only instead of cartridges or discs, you insert arcade game PCBs. As of version 5.0, the HAS is equipped with an OLED screen and an extensive Menu System, which offers a wide array of new possibilities.

General

• JAMMA, JAMMA+ compatible.
• OLED screen.
• Dual Voltmeter to monitor the +5 V and +12 V power rails (1% tolerance).
• Extensive Menu System.
• 132 x 80 x 27 mm total size with the plexiglass case (132 x 70 mm PCB size), 156 g.
• Comes fully assembled (plexiglass case).

Controls

• DB15 controller ports (NeoGeo compatible, pinout extended to support buttons 5 and 6).
• Test and Service buttons.
• Button Test mode to check the device I/O and layout mapping.
• Programmable Button Layout.
• Programmable Rapid-Fire (VSync synchronized or asynchronous, 6 different fire rates).
• 5 profiles per player to save the Button Layout and Rapid-Fire Configuration.
• 3 Device Profiles to store your settings.
• 5 Gameplay Modes that significantly change the controls behavior (Default, Tournament, Shmups Arrange, Taps, NeoGeo CP).
• 5 popular Layout Presets.
• Ability to combine/merge Button Layouts.
• Selected buttons can work as ON-OFF switches. Can be applied even to Rapid-Fire enabled buttons.
• Special functions can be assigned to buttons, for example, you can make the buttons work as Coin, Test, a combination of A+B+C, and more.
• Programmable Rapid-Fire on joystick directions.
• 4-WAY joystick restrictor gate emulation.
• Joystick rotation (90 degrees left/right).
• You can assign a special function to Player 1 and Player 2 Start buttons when pressed at the same time.
• The Start button can be used to coin up, either simultaneously, or with a delay.
• Automatic PICKnMIX trigger.
• Coin Chute Emulator for buttons assigned to work as Coin.
• Buttons 1-6 on the JAMMA connector (buttons 4-6 can be disabled), making it a "CHAMMA" compatible output.
• Buttons 4-6 on the JST-XH 6 pin “kick harness” connector.

Video/Audio

• All Video and Audio settings can be changed using the Menu System.
• Fully buffered consumer equipment friendly RGB video output.
• Brightness regulation.
• Precise calibration for each additive primary color signal (red, green, blue).
• Consumer equipment friendly level CSync at ~0.4 Vp-p 75 Ohm impedance (can be set to TTL ~5 Vp-p 470 Ohm impedance).
• Selectable raw JAMMA/unprocessed CSync.
• Selectable Video Low Pass Filter.
• Unbalanced audio output, attenuated to safe line level.
• Selectable stereo support for the NeoGeo MVS.
• Selectable speaker +/- swap for Asura Blade, Power Instinct, and various bootleg PCB, like the popular Battle Garegga boot.
• Video on an 8 pin mini-DIN connector (XRGB mini/NESRGB pinout); audio on a 3.5 mm stereo connector or the 8 pin mini-DIN if the 3.5 mm stereo connector is not in use.

Power

• Power is delivered through a 6 pin JST-VH power connector (GND, +5 V, +12 V, -5 V).
• +5V output via a USB-C connector (used mainly to provide power to external HAS adapters). The USB-C can be used to power stereo-modded MVS MV-1B/C or other low-power systems that can operate from a single +5V power supply.

Power Supply Cover

A 3D printed cover for the Mean Well power supply RT series. It uses a custom PCB with an IEC C5 "cloverleaf" power inlet, a fuse, a switch, and a HAS compatible 6-pin JST-VH connector.

Compatibility:

• RT-65A
• RT-85A
• RT-125A

The bundle includes:

• a HAS V5.0 unit, fully assembled
• a Power Supply Cover set, which consists of:
  • a 3D printed cover printed in black PLA+
  • a custom PCB with 2 oz copper layers
  • a 60 cm long HAS compatible 6-pin JST-VH power supply harness (2x16AWG for GND, 2x16AWG for +5V, 1x18AWG for -5V, 1x18AWG for +12V)
  • 3 x fuses, one for each PSU variant (65W, 85W, 125W)
  • a pair of HEX screws
  • 4 x rubber feet with adhesive
  • a dust cap

Disclaimer: You will need a Power Supply Unit (PSU) and a Video Cable of your choosing to power the unit and display output from the HAS. Please see the Setup examples page for recommendations.

You will also need your own IEC C5 cable. It is the same cable that is commonly used with laptop power bricks.

The PCB game, cables, power supply, and accessories visible in the photo present a setup example and are not included and shown for illustrative purposes only.

The best effort was made to make the HAS as versatile as possible, but it is not guaranteed to work with every PCB game and/or AV setup.

Make sure you read and follow the HAS V5.0 Instruction Manual as well as the Power Supply Cover assembly instruction.
