Introduction: 

Before playing games from PSIO on your PlayStation 1, the Switch Board must be installed. 
To install it, some fine soldering is required. This document is a guide on how to install it for your 

[PU-7]

 PlayStation mainboard. 

 
The Switch Board is included for free with each PSIO cartridge purchase. 
If you require additional Switch Boards, they are available for purchase in the ‘Store’.

We will 

NOT

 be held responsible for any damage to your PlayStation console, or PSIO cartridge.
