Does anyone body happen to have the pin out for a brown Atari power plug. I'm in the UK and currently running my US Star Wars with a step down, and should probably use just the voltage plug (UK 240V is the brown one)

Any help is appreciated..
 
Found one on my Missile Command :D

Here's a pic of the brown 240V plug for reference.

really................?

I believe that if you look at the schematics, you'll find the diagram for each of the possible plugs. I don't have the Star Wars schematics handy, but I've got the Missile Command ones here and it does have each plug's wiring diagram. I think that's the manual a previous poster was referring to.

If you don't have the schematics and the manual for your game - GET THEM. Most things have been scanned if you can't find an original, but get them, one way or another. Life is much easier when you can refer to the docs first, and use them as a basis for asking questions.
 
I have the SW schematics and didn't see the wiring diagrams. My mistake.

What I didn't expect, was a d**k head response from another member to an arcade related question.

i would be careful and be sure that the missile command one is the same for the star wars as the wires and such might be different,i have some atari cabs but,without actualy pulling the cabs out and looking at the voltage plugs i wouldnt be 100% sure they are all the same.

It was clear, short, honest and true. Nothing dick head about it.

You learn more from figuring stuff out yourself a bit...try it :p

So I pointed you to read the manual.....But ah, reading a manual is an art long forgotten....damn I must keep remembering that :D
 
The voltage plug worked fine. Had a my fingers crossed before I switched on the power mind :eek:

...and calling you a d**k head for your comment was also clear, short, honest and true.

If you think so, be happy with it.... :)

You asked a question and I gave you a hint where to find the info instead of chewing it all up for you. If you have a problem with that then I'm sorry for you .

Calling names is very adult indeed. Good day !
