See on the PS1/X (the top console) how it has a brown PCB rectangle to the left of the PS1/X mainboard?

Thats what you do not need. Also, be EXTREMELY CAREFUL with that board because there is 110/240 VAC going though that!!! Do EVERYTHING with it fully unplugged.

But apart from that, you will see wires going from it into the PS1/X mainboard. Those are your DC voltages in which you need to 'replicate' with batteries.
