League Bowling Multi-link not working

I know the multi-link has been discussed before, but I was wondering if anyone has specifically used it with MVS League bowling on 2 cabs. I bought a stereo male to male link cable from radio shack.(6ft. I made sure it was the correct size as well)

Just today I got another mv-1fz and an additional copy of League Bowling. I set the hard dips on both boards as such:

cab 1:
dip4 5 6
off off on
cab 2:
dip4 5 6
off on on

The cable went from the output on cart 1 in cab 1 to the input on cart 2 cab 2.

I turn both cabs on and see that there is an additional selection on cab 1 after player 4. It's in Japanese but looks to be the multi-link. After selecting that, a countdown begins, which I assume give you time to insert coins and press start on the other cab. I did just that, but did not see the multi-link on cab 2 and when I press start it just goes into a single player game.

Does anyone know if I'm doing something wrong, or maybe one of my boards muti-link isn't working? From what I can tell, I was doing everything correctly.

Give Paul a call. We set it up at a gathering once and I believe he was the one that wrote up the instructions here on the site.

Make sure you activate multi-link mode on cab 2.

edit: I see you do have dip 6 on both cabs on so nm.

Try switching the holes the cable goes in to. From what I remember on 2 cab setups it doesn't matter which hole is used.

Wasn´t the link cable supposed to have mono plugs?

No it needed stereo, I'm guessing for the send/receive.

According to the documentation everything is correct.

I researched a little and it´s indeed stereo

For some reason, there is a timing as to when the second machine is fired up after the first one. I don't recall exactly what we did, but I remember we played around a bit before we got it to work for us. It's been too long and my memory is not what it used to be.
