+# `GULDJ-JS`: Beatmania IIDX Rootage art and turntable bypass kit
+
+## Turntable bypass cable
+
+If you upgraded a [C02 wired cabinet](../io.md#c02-io), the turntables are connected to the
+sub IO via a serial line that goes to another sub IO behind the front panel
+next to the 16seg display. This introduces additional latency as the input
+data needs to pass through multiple systems/PCBs until it reaches the game.
+
+This can be reduced by using a so-called "bypass" cable, that connects the
+turntables directly to the [BIO2 sub IO](../io.md#bio2-ldj-sub-io) board by emulating the wiring of a
+[D01 IO](../io.md#d01-io) based cabinet, reducing latency significantly.
+
+This cable could be ordered with the IIDX Rootage upgrade kit but can also
+be easily created from scratch.
+
+### Parts
+
+* Some wires
+* [JST HL](https://jst.de/file/download/219/pitch-3-96-mm-wtw-hl2-pdf) 2x4 pin female connector
+* [JST HVQ](https://jst.de/file/download/637/hvq) 8 pin female connector
+* Matching terminals for the connectors
+
+### Pinout
