| 60 in 1 with trackball problem |

Is your cab setting set to Upright 1 player on the software dip switch? Are you using the player 2 inputs or a trackball harness to 60 in 1 connector? |

I have it set up as 1 joystick, upright cabinet. i have set up many of these 60 in 1 boards over the years, but this is the first trackball. I am using a direct wire to the board from the joystick. I dont know how to wire to the player 2 controls. If i did cut the harness and wire direct to player 2, would i still tell the board that i am using 1 joystick, upright? How does the board know the trackball is being used. i bought the direct wire because i thought it would be plug and play. |
| BobA:
Shouldn't be a wiring problem if you have the harness. When wiring thru the player 2 controls it uses the joystick inputs as shown on the jamma harness picture in the icade manual. I think it knows to use the player 2 controls and that is why you have to set the cab as a single player upright to wire there. |

that is what i thought, i dont think there is a wiring issue at all, wondering if there is something i have forgotten, missed, etc. |

Depends on your 60 in 1 card. Have seen postings of a software problem with some of the cards and the only solution was a new card or new rom. If it is a current card it should not have that problem as it was several years ago that most of the postings re that problem were dated. From another forum. How to determine if you have the defective trackball software. Mike, It is a problem with your boards software. When the 60-in-1 Multicade board was first released, everything worked fine but there was a few minor bugs in it. So the 60-in-1 builder I suppose tried to fix those bugs and added another feature into the Setup Menu. However I suppose they did not actually test the trackball function afterwards. They did not even update the software version so these two different versions have the same identifier on the last page of the Setup Menu. * If you have the defective software, your Setup Menu with have a new feature on DIPSW2 - 8 which lets you choose if you want to trackball to work on the 'Normal' games or 'ALL' games. * If you do not see this feature then you have the original VER300 released software and your trackball will work! -Tim |
