***note on -5V input: not all boards use a -5V input.

Frogger, Gyruss, and Time Pilot do. 

Track and Field and Hyper Sports don't. 

This is no big deal, EXCEPT that some boards may get "confused" if you send them -5 on the usual -5 pin (ie: HyperSports).  

So if you plug one of these boards into a standard Konami cabinet and get strange things on the screen, 
try disconnecting the -5 as your first step in troubleshooting:
