Capcom System II is an arcade platform developed and used by Capcom. It consists of two boards, named A and B. The A board is the base of the system, and contains the CPU, DSPs, JAMMA connector, a JAMMA+ harness and stereo RCA connectors for use with a QSound amplifier. The B board goes on top using four connectors and holds all the game data.

Compatibility between boards
There are two kind of conenctors in teh boards, these make the games physically incompatible between certrain regions. The boarda are colores to reflect their region, and thus their compatibility in general terms. However, there are boards that have been officially adapted for a different region than the one identified by the color.
Regions are:
| Color | Region | Compatible with |
|---|---|---|
| Blue | USA | Japan |
| Green | Japan | USA |
| Yellow | Japan (Rental Only) | USA |
| Orange | Hispanic | Asia |
| Gray | Asia | Hispanic |
There are also black metal boards, which are a complete system and thus, they have no A and B parts.
Harness
The JAMMA + harness found in CPS-2 boards is 34 pins in two rows. It is multipurpose and teh game might use it for different input options. It is most commonly used as a Kick harness, extending the JAMMA 3 buttons per player to 6 buttons, and is commonly used in fighting games.

XRGB-2 Specific settings
XRGB-3 Specific settings
As usual with arcade boards, you'll need to set the 220 ohm setting or adjust your potentiometers if your SuperGUN has the controls.
CPS-2 also presents slight distortion on the top 18 lines. To fix this set AFC to manual and AFC level to 3. LPF might also be needed but it commonly isn't. This wokrs on B0 and B1 mode, a reboot of teh XRGB-3 might be needed after setting AFC level.
Enabling V-Sync Lock in B0 mode makes the TV loose the signal from the XRGB-3 on an LN46a950, can be fixed by selecting a different input and disabling V-Sync Lock.
Here are pictures detailing the distortion on teh top lines before and after adjusting AFC level.
| AFC at default 2 | AFC manual and level at 3 |
