You can purchase the online version of the save kit that features the high score upload to the internet above for $15 in the drop down choices. You will receive a specific SK and PK Key that will unlock this feature and an online module that connects with a Cat5 or Cat6 cable. See the bottom of the User Guide for more details on DHCP and DNS settings needed.
The online module will allow you to display your own arcade score board and you can compete against other game players with our save kits globally, in your own country or just in your own game room!*
You can have multiple games with online capabilities on your network. We recommend using an access point in your game room. The access point can have a switch attached that can add up to 64 ports to upload scores. These switches can be purchsed separately at any major electronics store for under $30. Once you have your games online, you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner!
* You are not able to add the online module after the initial purchase as the socket and connectivity LED lights for it will not be populated.
Best upgrade ever invented for Space Zap
My very first High Score Save Kit from Joe & Jochen. The Space Zap HSS kit blew my mind when it first came out and started my HSS kit buying frenzy! Get the online version, it's the best!
What is "enhanced mode" on Space Zap?
Normal (or standard) = Coin Counter 1 - The output is used as a coin counter
Enhanced = Coin Counter 1 - The output is used to control (for example) a 12v LED strip for explosions...(it flashes in the opposite way of the explosion on screen)
--------------------------------------
Hardware modifications / Explanation -
The plug inside the coin door (coming from the main harness) that connects to coin counter 1 has 2 wires -
- Blue/Red = +10.5 volts DC
- Black/Red = This wire is switched by the gamecode to gnd...
Usually, the code switches the black/red wire to gnd for a few milliseconds (to count) after a coin is inserted.
When you switch to enhanced mode -
Use these two wires to connect to a black lightt LED strip (with an input voltage of approximately +12v DC)
Now, the led strip will flash in the opposite way like the explosion flashes!
Put one led strip on the very left, as well one led strip on the very right of the black cardboard bezel (between cardboard and glass bezel)
