Question about happ 4 speed shifters

(1/4) > >>

SegaOutrun:
Im think about changing my act labs shifter to something more authentic. My concern is that I will have any future shifter mapped to keypresses using a encoder so, I would need to put into neutral when not use.

My question is this, are there any 4 speed arcade shifter that have a neutral resting point in the middle where no buttons are being pressed?

Fursphere:
I'm curious as well, but probably for a completely different reason.   :)

vandale:
both my original Daytona 4 speed and scud race 4 speed don't have neutral switches however my sega rally 4 speed has 3 micro switches and I use a 8 legged Motorola PIC to allow 4 separate outputs.

SegaOutrun:
Thank vandale, i dont need a neutral switch per se, i just need to be able to leave the stick in a neutral position where none of the buttons are being pressed. Do any of yours allow for that? I use my cabinet as media pc as well and dont want a button being pressed all the time. for example, my current shifter has a neutral center position but, if i forget and leave it in gear, it will be constantly sending that keypresses to my pc. If not, im pretty I can program xpadder to only open on certain programs but, i rather just leave it in a neutral position.   

Fursphere:
You could wire up an "on off" switch inline with the shifter.   Just cut the group or signal wire(s).   I have a "hi low" shifter I was considering doing this with for the kids.
