Hi,

here are the pics of the tilt switch to detect the side/front  bumps
of my 1/2 pinball control panel:

I'm lucky because 2 of the bumps are on the same wire of my keyboard matrix (Space and / )

I have chosen screws because I can ajust the sensivity the way I like it.

thanks

resume of the result of the bump tilt pendulum switch

Hi,

I have tested my new bump tilt pendulum switch.

The best result is when the distance between cone of the tilt switch ans the adjustments screws have a gap of 1 milimeter.

If greater... the table need to be pushed much harder.

For now the surfaces between my arcade cabinet and 1/2 pinball controller are very rough ...I need to soften those to ease the bumping.

thanks
