I wouldn't bother H and H; you both got a good rep and have contributed plenty to this site and hobby. This fella ain't. Nuff said.

--- Quote from: Havok on April 26, 2010, 12:14:01 am ---Seriously though - you should ask Andy from Ultimarc if he has any of the old harnesses left, or you could buy a new one and cut it. Connect the trackball and spinner side, and then connect those wires to the appropriate connections on the mini-pac. Just grab an old IDE cable and cut it to get the correct pin connections to plug into the mini-pac. However, make sure you get one that has all 40 pins available, or see if you can do without the one that is normally filled in for keying purposes.

Done.

I got the switch harness with the setup, but I made my own trackball harness out of a non keyed usb motherboard header block. Just your basic 10 pin block. This block plugs into the extra, smaller group of pins on your minipac, providing power and ground to your trackball. The X,Y signals actually go to the wiring harness pins on the switch harness.

Your post stating that Andy answered your question isn't until reply #40:

No you don't. How did you miss post #34?

And I responded that an IDE cable was a non-option and had already stated that I had yet to get an answer from Andy concerning the exact harness or harnesses I needed...

Once again, I state what is obvious to others on this board - the question was answered in a BYOAC context. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean you can act condescending since we didn't give you a SKU number from a website...

You cannot speak for "others on this board". And how did you become an authority on "BYOAC context"? I understood everything. You did not understand what I was asking. And even though we traded jabs in this discussion, Hoopz(who did answer a couple of other questions I had) knew I was trying to figure out which of Andy's harnesses I needed.

In fact, before your first post in this thread I mentioned to Hoopz that I had yet to receive an answer from Andy.(And answer to the exact harness I needed, which he later finally gave me a link for).

Haha - I'm out. No matter the fact I point out a solution was given, you insist it wasn't.

As far as the BYOAC context - it's pretty simple. Sound out what each word is, and concentrate on the letter B word. BTW - I can speak for others on the board - I've received a number of PM's from people not even involved in the thread on the subject.

Anyways, so long and thanks for all fish...

I don't think someone who thinks he has to re-wire or re-program when switching from Arkanoid to Asteroids is in a position to complain about too much information.
