SD-Card insertion while unit is powered on

Depending on the PC connected to the JVS-PAC 2, you may experience that the unit freezes if you insert an SD card while powered. Fix is to simply insert the SD card before connecting the unit to the PC.

Saving configuration doesn’t work

Older firmware had a bug affecting writing to cards formatted with exFAT. This is fixed in the current firmware. Update the firmware, or use a FAT32-formatted card as a workaround on older firmware.

FAQ

Do I need more than one JVS-PAC 2 for a cabinet with 2 players?

No you do not, the JVS-PAC 2 talks with the I/O board and reads both players. With cabinet linking or a Capcom I/O board in four-player mode, you get up to 4 players from the same JVS-PAC 2. Four players requires Keyboard mode; gamepad modes provide two controllers.

Does it support cabinet analog controls?

Yes, in XInput mode. Racing, two-player and custom mappings are available. Analog input is disabled by default; select a profile from the OLED menu. Analog controls are not supported when two cabinet I/O boards are linked.

Can this be used with XBOX 360?

No it can’t. XInput support on a PC does not make it compatible with an Xbox 360 console.

Can this be used with the PS3?

Yes. Select PS3 in the OLED USB mode menu, then SAVE+REBOOT. It provides two controllers using the cabinet buttons and joysticks. JVS analog controls and rotary mice are not supported in PS3 mode.

Can this be used with the PS4?

Unfortunately no.

Is XInput supported?

Yes. Select XInput in the OLED USB mode menu for two gamepads, with configurable buttons and analog mappings. Use SAVE CONFIG to keep the setting.
