Ultimarc trackball with Golden Tee Complete

Pages: (1/1)

Maybe this is a question for Andy over at Ultimarc but here goes...

I am about to start a new cabinet build and plan to put in Mame and a Golden Tee Complete PCB that I just picked up.  I looked at the manual for the Golden Tee and the trackball plugs straight into the PCB. (Not through Jamma)

I have a 3" Ultimarc trackball.  Will this work with the Golden Tee Complete without any kind of interface?

AndyWarne:

I would think it would almost certainly work.

The outputs from our unit are standard quadrature, as on other units.

wirenut:

Thanks for the response Andy and congrats on your new Ultimate interface!  I will be picking one up for the next project for sure.

So I am still a little confused on how to hook the trackball up to the Golden Tee's dedicated trackball connection.

I have attached a picture of the pinout that I found for the 6 pin connection on the Golden Tee board and also the U-Track Pinout.  Can someone please help me make since of this?  If I hook it up color for color will it work?   :dizzy:

Yes.

Red is 5v and black is ground.

If an axis is moving the opposite direction you expected, switch the data pair (yellow/green or blue/purple) for that axis.

Thanks a lot!  I'll be starting a build thread in the project section next week.
