Deluxe / sit-down cabinets (racing, gun, motion)¶

An overview of the big dedicated sit-down cabinets — deluxe, cockpit and motion — built for immersion: driving games (force-feedback wheel/pedals), rail-shooters (light guns), simulators and motion cabinets on actuators. Unlike the compact candy cabs, these are bulky, heavy cabinets, often one game = one cabinet.

The families¶

Family	Principle	Iconic examples
Sit-down / cockpit	the player sits inside the cabinet (seat + wheel/stick)	Sega OutRun, After Burner, driving cabs
Deluxe (DX) / environmental	the enveloping "big cabinet" version of a game (vs mini/upright)	DX versions of racers, twin/linked
Motion / simulator	a mechanism moves the seat or the pod — actuators per general sources, motor + belt + tyre on the documented Power Drift	After Burner (motion), Sega R360 (360° rotation)
Gun / rail-shooter	gun(s) fixed to the cabinet, dedicated sit-down or standing	House of the Dead, Time Crisis
Modern HD sit-down	arcade PC + large LCD	Sega Lindbergh Universal

(Per Wikipedia — Arcade cabinet (deluxe/environmental/cockpit) and internal pages.)

What sets them apart¶

Specialised controls: force-feedback wheel, pedals, gear shifter, flight stick, or optical gun — well beyond joystick + buttons.
Immersion: enveloping pod, seat, sometimes actuators (motion); the R360 goes as far as full rotation on two axes.
Size / weight: far heavier and bulkier than a candy cab — transport and installation are non-trivial.
Dedicated: usually one game per cabinet (specific artwork, controls and electronics), sometimes linkable (twin/networked versus).

Manufacturer figures — five Sega cabinets ✅¶

✅ The first sourced figures on this page

This page described bulk in words — "far heavier and more voluminous". ⓘ Here are five SPECIFICATIONS blocks taken from the manufacturer manuals archived here, every value re-read from the scan image rather than from the text layer.

Cabinet	Footprint	Height	Weight	Power	Screen
Virtua Cop 2 (gun)	800 × 1,120 mm ⚠️ axes unlabelled	1.87 m	165 kg	288 W @ 240 V	"N/A"
Power Drift Deluxe (banking)	2,050 (L) × 1,230 (W) mm	1,680 mm	350 kg	350 W	26″
House of the Dead 4	1,503 [W] × 1,874 [D] mm	2,226 mm	320 kg	540 W @ 120 V	—
F355 Challenge	1,310 (W) × 2,830 (D) mm	2,660 mm	370 kg	600 W @ 110 V	—
Sega Rally Championship (twin)	1,640 (W) × 1,700 (D) mm	1,920 mm	480 kg	861 W @ 110 V 50 Hz	29″ × 2

⚠️ The axis trap — four conventions from one manufacturer

⚠️ These five blocks come out of the same Sega department and do not label their axes the same way:

Power Drift: (L) × (W) — ⚠️ length first
Sega Rally, F355: (W) × (D) — width first
House of the Dead 4: [Width] × [Depth] — spelled out
Virtua Cop 2: ⚠️ nothing at all — "800mm x 1,120mm", not a word about which axis

⚠️ Carry the habit "the first figure is the width" and Power Drift comes out inverted: you set aside 2.05 m of width by 1.23 m of depth for a cabinet that is 1.23 m wide and 2.05 m deep. ⓘ Inverted by 82 cm on each axis — about the width of a door.

ⓘ And for Virtua Cop 2, its own manual cannot settle it. The other cabinets make it likely that 800 mm is the width; ⚠️ this wiki does not fill the gap and says so.

✅ What costs power is not the motion

ⓘ An unexpected result, and it rests on the figures above. The Power Drift is the only motion cabinet in the list — its contents list a vibration unit, motor unit, V belt, motor brushes, rolling adjustment. ⚠️ And at 350 W it draws less than every other cabinet of its size, none of which move — 540 W, 600 W, and 861 W for the Sega Rally. ⓘ Only the Virtua Cop 2 draws less (288 W), and that is a plain upright of 165 kg, half the mass.

ⓘ It is the tubes and the number of seats that cost: the Sega Rally is a twin with two 29″, the Power Drift a single with one 26″. The banking motor is almost nothing on the meter next to two 29-inch tubes.

ⓘ A corollary for anyone installing one: across this panel, the electrical supply is sized by screen and player count, not by the presence of actuators.

⚠️ Height, not footprint, is what blocks

ⓘ Sorted by height: Power Drift 1,680, Virtua Cop 2 1,870, Sega Rally 1,920, House of the Dead 4 2,226, ⚠️ F355 Challenge 2,660 mm.

⚠️ The F355 is taller (2.66 m) than it is wide (1.31 m), and 2.83 m deep — on the floor, a footprint longer than the cabinet is tall. ⓘ This wiki cites no building standard here: measure your ceiling, your door and your landing before buying, because the manufacturer's figure is above them.

ⓘ Seven to eight mains variants, and only one that declares a minimum

The Sega Rally declares seven power/current pairs by supply, from 861 W 9.5 A (110 V 50 Hz) to 825 W 4.3 A (240 V 60 Hz) — ⓘ a 12 % spread in declared power for the same machine. The F355 declares eight, from 600 W to 580 W.

⚠️ And both keep a separate line for Taiwan. The Sega Rally is the only document in this batch to declare a minimum there: 930 W 10.6 A (MAX.) and 520 W 5.9 A (MIN.). ⓘ The manual does not explain what that minimum covers; this wiki reproduces it without interpreting it.

ⓘ Power Drift: two banking motors, and a DIP that must match

"These two types of motors can be utilized by setting the DRIVE BOARD (839-0213) DIP SWITCHes in a manner as shown. If the setting is incorrect, the motor may not sufficiently function."

Motor	DIP 1	DIP 2	DIP 3	DIP 4	Brushes
350-5133	OFF	OFF	OFF	OFF	601-5910
350-5134	ON	OFF	OFF	OFF	601-6150

⚠️ Two motor part numbers for one cabinet, told apart by DIP 1 on power board 839-0213. ⓘ Check this before concluding a banking motor is dead: a setting that does not match the fitted motor gives a motor that "may not sufficiently function", which looks like a fault.

⚠️ The manual contradicts itself on the first part number — and this wiki had copied the sentence

The sentence opening chapter 25 reads: "two types of BANK MOTORs, i.e., (350-5108) and (350-5134)". ⚠️ But both tables in the same manual read 350-5133: the DIP table, right below that sentence, and the brush table in chapter 16.

ⓘ One sentence against two tables. ⚠️ This wiki does not arbitrate and publishes both; read the part number printed on the motor, as the manual itself asks.

⚠️ Correction: the first version of this page quoted the sentence alone and gave "350-5108 and 350-5134" without flagging the tables. Re-read from the image the next day.

⚠️ How these figures were checked

ⓘ These manuals give every dimension twice — millimetres and inches, kilos and pounds. ✅ That redundancy works as an OCR check: a misread value no longer converts correctly.

⚠️ The check earned its keep. The Sega Rally text layer rendered "nov 60 flz" for AC 220V 60 Hz, and "480 kg. 0,058 Ibs.)" for 480 kg (1,058 lbs). ⓘ Every value published here was re-read from the image at 300 dpi.

ⓘ One discrepancy survives the check, and it is the manufacturer's: Virtua Cop 2 writes 165 kg (363.3 lbs), yet 165 kg is 363.8 lbs. ⚠️ Verified on the image: that is what is printed. The same box carries two typos — "Insallatin Space" and "Powre, Current" — and leaves "N/A" on the Monitor and Taiwan lines. ✅ Published as it stands, uncorrected.

A gun that does not care what the screen is ✅¶

✅ What Sega actually shipped in 2005

ⓘ This page says, a little further down, that optical guns depend on the tube's scan. ⚠️ That is true of video-synchronised guns — and the manual archived here shows Sega already had something else.

The House of the Dead 4 has neither CRT nor LCD: its screen is a 62-inch wide DLP projector. ⓘ A gun counting the lines of a scan would not work there. Its parts list explains how it does without:

Part number	Manual's description	Where
838-13145R02	LED BD GUN SENSE HOD	ⓘ "The mask has the LED boards attached" — around the screen
838-13144R	SENSOR BD GUN SENSE	in the SENSOR UNIT (JPT-2030), on a SENSOR HOLDER (JPT-2031)
515-30-322 (839-1280-N)	⚠️ XY ACCELERATION BD	same SENSOR UNIT
HDF-2100	CONTROL UNIT (the gun)	—

ⓘ Reference LEDs around the image, a targeting sensor, and an XY accelerometer. ⚠️ The manual names the assembly by its function: "Player 1 Control Unit (Gun) targeting sensor unit".

ⓘ This wiki stays with what the parts list establishes — which boards exist and where they are mounted. ⚠️ It does not describe the aiming algorithm, which the manual does not give.

⚠️ Two reassembly traps, written by the manufacturer

ⓘ The LED board fits backwards without breaking anything visible. The manual insists:

"pay attention to the facing/direction of the LED board when inserting it."

⚠️ And the targeting sensor has its own fuse, which the fault table handles thus:

"Fuse on the sensor unit has blown due to a momentary electrical overload" → "Fix the source of the overload, then replace the fuse" — 200 mA 250 V slow-blow, part 514-5143-200 or 514-5146-200.

ⓘ Replacing the fuse without finding the overload just blows it again. The same table also names a less obvious cause of a gun that aims badly: "LED board and LED board cover are contaminated" — dirty LEDs.

Wiring & power¶

I/O: JAMMA on classic generations, JVS on modern arcade (arcade PCs like the Lindbergh) → JVS wiring and JVS I/O boards.
Analog controls: wheel/pedals go through potentiometers / encoders to an I/O board; guns via an optical sensor (CRT) or infrared (LCD).
Motion: a separate hydraulic/electric stage (actuators, safety interlocks) — specific maintenance and reinforced safety.
Power: high-wattage supplies depending on motors/actuators and the large screen — see Power.

Mechanical maintenance of a driving cabinet ✅¶

✅ What this wiki said nowhere

ⓘ Before these manuals, the word "greasing" appeared once in this entire wiki — on a Macintosh page — and "periodic maintenance" nowhere. ⚠️ Yet on a thirty-year-old driving cabinet it is the mechanics that wear out, not the electronics.

Here is the PERIODIC CHECK from the Sega Rally Championship, re-read from the image:

Assembly	Item	Interval
CONTROL PANEL	Check the lamp	Monthly
	Check the volume value (potentiometer)	Monthly
	Check the adjust gear engagement	Trimonthly
	Greasing of gear and bearing	Trimonthly
ACCEL. & BRAKE	Check the volume value	Monthly
	Check the gear engagement	Trimonthly
	Greasing of gear and bearing	Trimonthly
4-SPEED SHIFTER	Check the switch	Monthly
	Greasing of bearing	Trimonthly
COIN CHUTE TOWER	Check the coin switch	Monthly
	Cleaning of the selector	Trimonthly
MONITOR	Check the adjustments	Monthly
SEAT	⚠️ Antistatic measures	⚠️ Bimonthly
GAME BD	Memory test, check settings	Monthly

ⓘ The rhythm is plain: monthly = electrical (values, switches, lamps), trimonthly = mechanical (engagement, greasing, cleaning). ⚠️ And one item alone is bimonthly: the seat.

⚠️ The seat needs antistatic treatment — and the manual does not say which

ⓘ The table requires it every two months, the only item at that interval. ⚠️ Its cross-reference leads to no procedure in the copy archived here, and the accessories list contains no antistatic product.

ⓘ So the requirement is published and the method is not — this wiki does not guess it. ⚠️ The mechanism is clear enough: a player sliding on a seat builds a charge, which discharges into whatever electronics they touch next.

⚠️ The grease is named, and the wrong one damages parts

The F355 Challenge does not say "grease it": it names a product.

"Once every 3 months, apply greasing to the Spring and Gear mesh portion. For spray greasing, use GREASE MATE (PART No. 090-0066)." "Be sure to use the designated grease. Using undesignated grease can cause part [damage]."

⚠️ This is not a formality: the manual does not say why. ⓘ (This wiki's explanation, not from the manual: on plastic gears, an unsuitable grease can attack the material.) ⓘ Both manuals, four years apart, give the same three-month interval — Sega Rally: "Grease the gears and bearings once every 3 months as a standard." ⚠️ But it is not a Sega rule: Out Runners says six months → detail.

✅ A pedal is NOT meant to sweep the whole scale

ⓘ The F355 gives the expected value, and it is surprising:

"The appropriate value for both ACCEL. Volume and Brake Volume is under 30H when released and over C0H when stepped on. Check Volume values in the TEST mode."

ⓘ Which is, converted here: under 48 at rest and over 192 fully pressed, on a 255 scale. ⚠️ The guaranteed working travel therefore covers only about 56 % of the 8-bit range, with deliberate margin at both ends.

⚠️ Anyone "correcting" a pedal so that it reaches 00H and FFH would be setting it wrong. ⓘ The same value applies to the clutch — which the manual spells "Crutch Volume", a printing typo reproduced as it stands.

ⓘ The steering wheel has no numeric target: it is set by its centre value in test mode. ⚠️ This wiki invents none.

ⓘ Force feedback: eight steps, and a clutch inside the mechanism

On the Sega Rally, "the strength of steering wheel reaction can be adjusted in 8 steps" from the SERVICE button. ⓘ The reaction mechanism combines a potentiometer, a motor and a clutch — the fault table points at "Reaction mecha" and "V.R. malfunctioning" when the feedback disappears.

⚠️ Mind the false friend: that clutch is inside the wheel mechanism. ⓘ The F355 has a real foot clutch — and three ways to change gear: a 6-speed gate, paddle shifters ("paddle / wing shift"), and the clutch pedal.

✅ The link between cabinets runs on optical fibre

ⓘ And it is not an isolated curiosity. Both cabinets use the same cable family: 600-6275-0500 (500 cm) on the 1995 Sega Rally, 600-6275-0150 (150 cm) on the F355 — which also ships a "STICKER FIBER CABLE TX/RX" (421-7515).

⚠️ Crossing is mandatory: "Make sure to connect the 'TX' connector of one cabinet to [the] 'RX' connector of the other cabinet."

⚠️ And fibre breaks by bending: "When handling optic fiber cables in particular, ensure not to cause breakage [by] excessive bending." ⓘ A silent twin link is therefore checked at the cable and its direction first, before the board.

A thermal printer inside an arcade cabinet ✅¶

✅ The F355 printed lap times — and that is a preservation problem

ⓘ The F355 Challenge offered an optional printer kit — XKT-0440-EX1, "PRINTER KIT FOR FRI DX EXP" — to which the manual devotes a whole chapter: loading the roll, cleaning the head, clearing jams.

⚠️ Without the kit, the machine displays "Printer unavailable" — ⓘ so that message is not a fault on a cabinet sold without the option.

⚠️ And the consumable is proprietary for a functional reason. The roll carries printed marks that the machine reads:

"The Roll Paper has Marks indicating position in order to print and cut properly. The Mark indicating the end of paper appears at the end [of the] Paper. The Printer's Sensor detects the Mark and interprets it as the end of Roll Paper."

ⓘ The marks are not decorative: they serve registration and end-of-roll detection. ⚠️ The manual requires the dedicated paper — "Be sure to use the exclusively used paper and a Cleaning Pen. Using unspecified parts can cause malfunctioning and/or a damage to parts".

ⓘ This wiki has not tested commercial thermal paper in this machine and so does not claim it would fail. ⚠️ But the sensor looks for a mark, and a plain roll has none — that is where the difficulty lies for anyone returning one of these cabinets to service.

⚠️ Three warnings, and one counter-intuitive reflex

ⓘ The head is hot — "may cause a burn due to the Head's high temperature when printing" — and ⚠️ there is an auto cutter: "when performing work that uses the cutter, be very careful so as not to cut hands or fingers".

⚠️ The paper degrades once unwrapped: "Be sure to use the new roll paper unwrapped immediately before the use. Using the roll paper previously unwrapped and left for a while can cause malfunctioning due to deterioration resulted from humidity". ⓘ A stock of opened rolls is therefore not a stock.

✅ And the reflex that matters: to clear the jam error, the power must be turned off. The manual gives both reasons — the mechanical hazard, "the other reason is that in order to remove the error from the Printer, turning power off is necessary". ⚠️ Clearing the paper is not enough: until the machine has been switched off, the error stays.

ⓘ Two more pointers: two red lamps flash at the rear of the cabinet to signal PAPER END, and the printer carries two DIP switches to be left "as adjusted at the time of shipment". ⓘ The head is cleaned at every roll change, with the pen supplied in the paper set.

What a cabinet's counter says about its past ⓘ¶

ⓘ A provenance record, in the test menu

The BOOKKEEPING screen of the Sega Rally shows, among others, COIN CHUTE #1 and #2, TOTAL COINS, COIN CREDITS, SERVICE CREDITS, TOTAL CREDITS, NUMBER OF GAMES — and ⚠️ TOTAL TIME XXXD XXH XXM XXS.

ⓘ An operating counter expressed in days, hours, minutes, seconds. ⚠️ On a second-hand machine that is the equivalent of an odometer: it says how much this cabinet actually ran, where cosmetic condition says nothing.

⚠️ With the necessary caveat: the menu also carries a BACKUP DATA CLEAR. ⓘ A reset counter is indistinguishable from one never used — this wiki points at the tool, not at a guarantee.

Out Runners: three editions of one manual, cross-checked ✅¶

✅ Three documents, not three copies

ⓘ Three copies of the Out Runners manual are archived here, and they are not the same documents:

Edition	Publisher	Reference
Export	Sega Enterprises, Ltd.	MANUAL NO. 420-6079-01
US	Sega Enterprises, Inc. USA	4201-6079.01, "1ST US PRINTING"
Australia	Leisure & Allied Industries, Perth	the distributor's Operator's Manual, with its own parts list

✅ Every value below was re-read from the image and compared from one edition to another.

	What the manuals say
Complete cabinet	1,254 mm wide × 1,710 mm deep × 1,960 mm high — identical in the export and US editions
Weight	approximately 329 kg ("724 lbs." in the US edition)
Power (US)	450 W, 3.99 A at AC 120 V 60 Hz
Screens	two 26-inch monitors — ⓘ two seats per cabinet

⚠️ A fifth way of writing the axes

ⓘ The export edition writes a table with headers: Width × Depth × Height. ⚠️ The US edition of the same manual writes depth first: "1,710 mm (67.3 in.) (D) × 1,254 mm (49.4 in.) (W)".

⚠️ That makes a fifth convention at Sega, after the four listed above — and this one changes between two editions of one document.

✅ A shipping table that adds up

The export edition details the packages:

Item	W × D × H (mm)	Weight
CABINET	1,254 × 910 × 1,820	~265 kg
REAR CABINET ("one side only")	404 × 1,010 × 1,280	~28 kg
FL UNIT	1,212 × 120 × 195	~4 kg
BILLBOARD	1,222 × 233 × 458	~4 kg
COMPLETE CABINET	1,254 × 1,710 × 1,960	~329 kg

ⓘ "One side only" indicates one rear section per side. Counting it twice: 265 + 2 × 28 + 4 + 4 = 329 kg (this wiki's calculation) — exactly the stated total. ⚠️ Unlike House of the Dead 4, whose table leaves seven kilos unaccounted for.

⚠️ Greasing: every six months here, not every three

Both Sega editions list greasing as "Biannually" in their periodic inspection table. ⚠️ The English word is ambiguous — twice a year, or every two years — but the greasing chapter settles it, in all three editions:

"Once every 6 months as a standard, apply grease to the portions where the springs and gears are engaged."

⚠️ So Sega has no single interval: six months on Out Runners, three months on Sega Rally and F355. ⓘ The interval is read in that cabinet's manual, not by analogy.

ⓘ The rest of the table: self test and settings check monthly, accelerator, brake and steering potentiometer values monthly, coin selector cleaning trimonthly.

✅ Up to four cabinets networked, over optical fibre

ⓘ The link runs on fibre, in two runs: a thin fibre connects the game board to the TX/RX sockets on the SHIELD CASE, and a thick fibre, "which comes with the cabinet", connects the cabinets to each other, with TX and RX stickers supplied.

Setting, in test mode (NETWORK ASSIGNMENT):

a single cabinet as "MASTER", through PRIVILEGE MODE, all others as "SLAVE";
IDs 1, 2, 3 and 4 in order, "starting from the extreme left" (US edition);
difficulty is set on the MASTER: "Even if the setting is changed by the SLAVE machines, the setting will not be effective for the game" (US edition).

ⓘ Four two-seat cabinets, which is eight players (this wiki's calculation, from the IDs and the two screens per cabinet).

⚠️ Two traps written by the manual:

"If the same number is set for 2 or more cabinets, or if the sequential order is incorrect, game display, etc. will be confused";
the network check runs at power-on and when leaving test mode, on all machines at once: "Should the testing become necessary for even one machine, all of the remaining machines are required to enter the test mode" (US edition), and they all leave it together.

ⓘ Powering several cabinets: the provision and the consumption

ⓘ All three editions carry the same instruction:

"When linking a number of machines, be sure to supply sufficient power for the corresponding number of machines. The per unit standard voltage/amperage is 100~120V/10A and 200~240V/5A."

⚠️ That is not the same quantity as the specification sheet, which states 3.99 A at 120 V. ⓘ The instruction provides 10 A per cabinet, about 2.5 times the declared maximum current (this wiki's calculation). This wiki publishes both without deducing which one sizes the circuit: the manual prescribes the provision for linked play.

Power Drift motion: a motor, a belt, a tyre ✅¶

✅ No actuator in this cabinet

ⓘ This page described motion cabinets as cabinets "on hydraulic or electric actuators". ⚠️ The only motion cabinet manual archived here describes nothing of the kind.

The Power Drift Deluxe banks by means of a motor unit: a brushed electric motor drives, through a V belt, a tyre that carries the cabinet. A separate vibration unit is fitted under the monocoque. ⓘ No fluid, no pressure, no actuator in the removal chapters.

⚠️ This wiki does not conclude that actuators do not exist elsewhere — it has no manual for the other cabinets. ⓘ It bounds the claim: one documented Sega motion cabinet works without them.

⚠️ The cabinet leans by itself when the tyre is lifted

To remove the motor unit, the manual has you fit the supplied M10 × 90 bolt beside the tyre, to lift it approximately 7 to 8 mm off the frame — then warns:

"When the tire is raised, the cabinet will, by its dead load, incline to the right. Therefore, pay attention to this point."

⚠️ The cabinet's 350 kg does the rest. ⓘ Turn the power off before removal ("be sure to turn the power OFF"), and for the vibration unit, check it has stopped ("confirm that it is in a stationary status").

✅ Three adjustments, three values

Adjustment	What the manual asks
V belt	press the middle of the run: approximately 10 mm of slack
Motor brushes	⚠️ both at once — "Replace the two brushes simultaneously" — and by motor (table above)
Rolling (BANK MOTOR TEST)	cabinet level, on-screen value 80H (±2H)

⚠️ A badly set roll has an unexpected consequence:

"When the numerical value deviates, the cabinet will stay inclined and cause the coins to become stuck."

ⓘ A coin mech that jams on this cabinet may therefore come from the rolling adjustment, not from the coin mech.

ⓘ Power Drift pedals are not set like F355 pedals

ⓘ Power Drift sets its pedals at rest: accelerator and brake at 20H (±4), allowable range 1CH to 24H, stated maximum C0. ⚠️ The F355 gives a different form of target — under 30H released, over C0H pressed.

ⓘ The two do not contradict each other: 20H ± 4 stays under 30H. ⚠️ But the procedure is not carried from one cabinet to another — it comes each time from that cabinet's manual.

Repair pointers¶

Force feedback (wheel): motor, belt, position potentiometer, power board.
Video-synchronised light gun: relies on the tube's scan (timing) — hence the frequent CRT → flat panel incompatibility. ⚠️ But it is not the only method: as early as 2005, on a DLP projector, Sega aimed using reference LEDs + sensor + accelerometer → A gun that does not care what the screen is.
Motion: ⚠️ high-energy mechanism — do not service without knowing the safety systems. ⓘ The type depends on the cabinet: on the Power Drift, brushed motor, belt and tyre, no actuator → detail.
Monitor: large CRT (recap/adjust) or LCD (modern).

Spotted a wrong value, an outdated procedure, a chip reference that does not match your board? Say so here, with what you observed (model, board revision, serial number, measurement). Every report is cross-checked against a source before anything changes — an unverifiable correction is published as “reported by …, not cross-checked” rather than silently applied.

Reading is open to everyone; posting requires signing in with Discord. Reports from the wiki's declared reviewers are handled first; anyone else's are read too, but go through a human before anything is changed.
