Choosing the Correct Jail Break Arcade PCB Upgrade

The HighScoreSaves Jail Break kit is designed for documented compatible original Konami Jail Break arcade PCBs. Before ordering, confirm the actual game board, 6809E processor location, processor socket, and overall installation condition.

The main compatibility checks for a Jail Break high score save kit are the original Konami PCB, the correct 6809E processor, a compatible 40-pin processor socket, and following the documented ROM Saver installation procedure.

Original Konami Jail Break PCB Compatibility

Original Konami Hardware The kit is intended for documented compatible original Konami Jail Break arcade hardware. Confirm the actual PCB rather than relying only on cabinet artwork or the game currently displayed.
Original PCB Remains in Service The HighScoreSaves daughterboard works with the original Konami arcade PCB rather than replacing it with an emulation platform, reproduction PCB, or generic multicade system.
Inspect the Hardware Before Ordering Access to the original PCB is required during installation, so inspect the processor location, socket condition, component orientation, and overall PCB condition before choosing the kit.

Jail Break 6809E Processor Requirements

The Jail Break kit requires a 6809E processor installed at the documented processor location on compatible original Konami hardware.

The 6809E location must use a compatible 40-pin socket.

If the original 6809E is soldered directly to the PCB, a qualified arcade technician must properly remove the processor and install a compatible 40-pin socket before the HighScoreSaves kit can be fitted.

Socketed vs. Soldered 6809E

Socketed 6809E No soldering is required for normal kit installation when the original 6809E location already has a compatible 40-pin socket.
Soldered 6809E If the processor is soldered directly to the original PCB, socket installation is required before the daughterboard can be installed. This work should be performed by a qualified arcade technician.

Jail Break ROM Saver Compatibility

The kit supports ROM Saver functionality on documented compatible original Jail Break hardware.

Remove only the designated original ROMs identified in the current Jail Break installation guide. Do not remove unrelated ROMs, PROMs, processors, or other components.

Upright and Cocktail Cabinet Compatibility

The Jail Break kit supports documented upright and cocktail cabinet configurations. Cabinet style alone does not establish PCB compatibility, so the original Konami Jail Break board, 6809E processor, and processor socket should still be verified before ordering.

Jail Break Pre-Order Compatibility Checklist

1. Confirm the Original Konami Jail Break PCB Verify documented compatible original Jail Break arcade hardware rather than identifying compatibility only from the cabinet exterior.
2. Verify the 6809E Processor Confirm that the processor installed at the documented location is the required 6809E.
3. Inspect the 40-Pin Socket Confirm the 6809E is already socketed or arrange professional socket installation before attempting the upgrade.
4. Review ROM Saver Requirements Identify only the designated original ROMs shown in the current installation guide before removing components.
5. Check Orientation Before Power-Up Verify Pin 1 orientation, processor alignment, socket condition, daughterboard seating, and all processor pins before restoring cabinet power.

After Confirming Jail Break Compatibility

Once you have confirmed the original Konami Jail Break PCB, correct 6809E processor, compatible 40-pin socket, and ROM Saver requirements, use the product page for complete features, Standard/Wi-Fi choices, current pricing, availability, and ordering information.
