I'm having an issue with my installation.

The ribbon cable I got with the kit is way too short. It's not even close to being the right length.

Any thoughts?

Use the existing ribbon cable that came with the game.

Yep use the one already hooked up.

Awesome. I was worried at first because it was all garbled until I hit a button using the factory cable.

Thanks!

After installing, use the menus to advance to MOUNTING and switch the setting to the game platform you're using. If you're using a game-specific ROM the mounting setting is hardcoded in the ROM, but the factory-installed SIGMA ROM supports multiple platforms and needs to be manually set.

The small cable is only for Whitestar installations and used to connect the Whitestar display board to the ColorDMD. For SAM installations, just use the original cable.
