briscos horse:

I have a few BLUE CONVEX LED LIGHTED ARCADE PUSHBUTTONS
From Paradisearcade and I would like to connect hem to the Ledwiz.

I have looked all over and I have not been ble to find simple instructions.

The LEDs have 2 connectors.
Where do they go?
Does one go to the led wiz if so which one and where?

I have started trial and error but I don't want to fry the board or LED.

Thank you

this should answer a bunch of your questions.

I used that doc to hook up the first led I tried and it did not light up.
Not sure if I need to running the software on the pc that is connected to it before trying to make it light?

Thanks

Yes, that is what will be controlling the LED.  You can test the connection by holding a wire against the metal USB shell, and touching the terminal screw.  If it lights like that, then it will light for your software.
