Model 1 clutch not engaging with l2m2

(1/3) > >>

I've been working my way through Aganytes l2m2 ffb board and making some good progress and learning lots along the way. At the moment everything seems to be fine but the clutch will not engage. Motor spins in the correct direction. I can even hear it working in game. If the clutch would transfer feedback to the wheel that would be great.

The clutch does activate if we feed it 24v. No problem there.
By adjusting trim pot (rv4) we can feed a steady 1-5v with spikes up to 10v during feedback. But this doesnt seem like enough to engage it.

I've ran out of things to try and adjust. Any suggestions?

SailorSat:
Try a 25v 100nf capacitor connected to the clutch-output of the l2m2.

ryandoesntstress:
That sounds like good advice. A capacitor was the way I was leaning. Sorry to ask you for advice then almost throw it back in your face but I saw a post from Retrorepair at http://www.ukvac.com/forum/sega-sit-down-racing-cab_topic332015_page2.html saying to use a 10uf 25v.

Can you tell me what the difference between the two would be? Does it even make a difference?

SailorSat:
Don't think you'd notice a difference. The 100uf one would feel a little more "soft".

ryandoesntstress:
Thanks. I'll put one in and see how it goes. Good work with the m2emu network stuff as well. I've been following that and it will be very useful for what I am doing.
