If you can't get to it for some reason I could email it to you.
The manual contains a wiring diagram which will give you the pinouts,
but sadly doesn't help you with what connectors you will need. Got a
digital camera?

RE: [ukvac] [Tech] Quasar pinouts anyone ?
Shall wait and see what they look like, but if they prove difficult to
source you could always swap the connectors on the PCB for standard
molex kk sockets of whatever pitch is required. I've done that before.
Depends how fussed you are about keeping it original...

Re: [ukvac] [Tech] Quasar pinouts anyone ?
I've got 2 Zaccaria boards - The Invaders & Astro Wars with this type of connector, phuk knows where you'd get a spare from, just solder some wired to the underside of the pcb.

Re: [ukvac] [Tech] Quasar pinouts anyone ?
Luke,
It won't go to JAMMA very easily as the inputs are multiplexed (i.e.
they do not connect to ground but to another input).
I solved the curious connector problem by using two pin headers soldered
back to back to make a gender changer, and then using normal pin header
connectors with those.
The sound board is separate, and much rarer than the CPU board.
Regards,
Paul.

From memory, you'll also need a video inverter.
