SlikStik not responding
« on: June 23, 2010, 07:51:37 am »
Hey all,

I moved my arcade machine upstairs over the weekend and, like an idiot, didn't write down how all the connections were set up.  So now I can't seem to get everything working like it was before the move.  Anyways, I hooked up the Slikstik, which uses the I-paq ..no response...the trackball works, but no buttons on the Slikstik are responding.  When I hook up the keyboard to the computer, it works fine, but when i hook up the keyboard to the I-Paq and plus the I-Paq into the keyboard port, nothing...nothing looks loose that I can tell.  And the little green LED light on the I-paq is working.

Any ideas?

Just plug the I pac unit with the Slickstick plugged in ONCE windows has fully loaded, load up winpac and see if anything registering? if its not then try binging them all again and reprogramming the I pac.

ugh..I can't get it to work.  The computer works fine when I just plug in the keyboard.  But when I plug the keyboard into the I-Pac, nothing works.  I even tried just plugging the I-Pac into the computer without attaching the keyboard, and it still won't work.  Could the PS2 plug be bad?  Seems weird though, that it worked just fine a few days ago.

frustrating....

I don't have a slikstik panel or know how they are wired but I would make sure that the the proper ps2 port is being used from key board on pc to pc on Ipac. Also make sure you didnt loose a ground connection somewhere on the slikstik panel itself as I would think they would just daisy chain the ground and if it got disconnected most of the panel might not work.
