From how this thread has gone so far, I’m pretty sure you’re not going to understand if I explain how it works in technical terms.
Superficially, you daisy-chain the MAME instances using TCP connections the same way you’d daisy-chain the B boards using cables. It works across multiple machines provided latency is consistently low and you set the addresses properly.
