Overview –

This is what your pcb should look like. This kit will only work on a Eagle PCB. 

This savekit works only on an original Centuri / Nichibutsu Board

Moon Cresta and Eagle differs only in some small parts in the code and the graphic roms. That's why this save kit works for both (you only have to select the type of graphic roms you have in the main menu)

Note - The save kit is preset to Eagle (Centuri), if you have Moon Cresta, do not forget to change the Rom version in the main menu.

THIS save kit does NOT WORK on other boards e.g. Galaxian or Gremlin Hardware.

 Locate the Z80B-CPU at location 8B on the right pcb shown in the pic  -

Remove the daughter board shown in the pic above. This daughter board is no longer needed.

Check and remember Pin1 of the CPU at Location 8B.

[Ensure PIN 1 of the z80 is installed with the proper orientation]

 Install z80 on the daughter card. Now carefully plug the save kit on the socket  

That's it!

How do I get to the menu settings?

With the power off on your game. Press and hold P1 while you turn the game on. Release P1 button when the screen tells you to. You are now in the main menu settings. This is a feature built into your kits, so the menu settings are not accessible to your guests or family.

Now, having said that, you need to enable this feature in the menu settings, or disable if you want your kit to give you approximately 5 seconds every time you turn on your game.
