Key Writing Adapter Cable — Darksoft CPS2 (Champion Edition)
Need a Key Writing Adapter Cable for your “Champion Edition” Darksoft CPS2 multi? This 4-wire harness bridges the multi’s J18 header (next to the microSD slot) to the B-board’s key connector—so you can use original, untouched ROM sets as supported by the Champion Edition firmware.
What It Does
- Connects the kit’s 6-pin J18 header to your CPS2 B-board key connector.
- Implements the key-writing lines DATA, CLOCK, SETUP1, and SETUP2.
- Approx. 6″ overall length for easy routing inside the shell.
Compatibility
Works with Darksoft CPS2 Champion Edition units (firmware supports original ROM sets). Connector location varies by B-board revision:
Revisions 93646B-5, 93646B-6, 93646B-7, 97691A-3
Use the on-board CN9 key connector (no soldering required).
| Multi (J18) Pin | Signal | B-Board Connector |
|---|---|---|
| #2 | DATA | CN9 #2 |
| #3 | CLOCK | CN9 #3 |
| #4 | SETUP1 | CN9 #4 |
| #5 | SETUP2 | CN9 #5 |
Revisions 93646B-3, 93646B-4
These boards do not have CN9. Use header CN2 and solder four wires as follows:
| Multi (J18) Pin | Signal | CN2 Pin |
|---|---|---|
| #2 | DATA | A32 |
| #3 | CLOCK | A30 |
| #4 | SETUP1 | A31 |
| #5 | SETUP2 | A29 |
Installation Notes
- Power off and discharge before connecting.
- For CN9 boards, plug the cable between J18 and CN9 (match pin 1 orientation).
- For CN2 boards, solder the four wires to the CN2 pins listed above; insulate connections after soldering.
- Route the harness to avoid pinching when reassembling the shell.
What’s Included
- 1 × 4-wire Key Writing Adapter Cable (approx. 6″, all-black conductors)
Gallery photos show the installed cable; final production cables use black wire color throughout.
