Choosing the Correct Cheyenne Arcade PCB Upgrade

A Cheyenne cabinet, marquee, gun, or control hardware does not by itself confirm compatibility. Original shooting cabinets may have been converted, repaired, or fitted with replacement boards, so the actual arcade hardware should be identified before ordering.

Cheyenne is supported through the HighScoreSaves Exidy 440 Multigame Free Play and High Score Save Kit. There is no separate Cheyenne-only HighScoreSaves kit. The upgrade requires documented compatible original Exidy 440 arcade hardware and keeps that original platform in service.

Cheyenne & Exidy 440 PCB Compatibility

Genuine Exidy 440 Arcade Hardware Cheyenne support requires documented compatible original Exidy 440 arcade hardware. The kit is not a replacement PCB, emulation platform, generic multicade, or unrelated conversion board.
6809E & 6809 Processors Installation uses a 6809E processor from the Exidy 440 CPU board and a 6809 processor from the sound board. Compatible existing processors can be transferred to the kit as directed by the installation guide.
Original ROM Removal Is Part of Installation Designated original EPROMs and other specified devices are removed from the CPU and sound boards during installation. Save the removed components and record their original locations.

How the Cheyenne Exidy 440 Installation Works

The Exidy 440 installation works with both the original CPU PCB and sound PCB. The boards are separated during installation so the required processors, ROMs, and daughter cards can be installed in their documented locations.

On the CPU board, designated EPROMs are removed and the 6809E processor is transferred to the kit. The main daughter card is then installed into the documented board sockets. On the sound board, the 6809 processor and designated EPROMs are removed before the sound daughter-card assemblies are installed.

Before restoring cabinet power, verify processor orientation, Pin 1 alignment, daughter-card seating, socket condition, ribbon-cable connections, DIP-switch positions, and all other installation steps shown in the current Exidy 440 guide.

3. Inspect the 6809E & 6809 Processors Verify the processors and their socket condition on the CPU and sound boards before disassembly.
