Tron CP Spinner replacement (SpinTrak or SlickStik Tornado)
« on: September 26, 2015, 06:12:41 pm »
I have a Tron control panel and need a USB spinner to install in the CP.  Which is easier to install, the SpinTrak or the SlickStik Tornado.  (Can they simplly bolt in?)

I have the SpinTrak and it was very easy to install.   It basically installs like a button.

I've only used a spintrak but I assume they're all the same. The just go in the same hole as a button would.. And the wiring depends on what set up u have but its just one ribbon plug

For ease of installation, go with either the SpinTrak or the TurboTwist 2 from GGG.

Both are installed like a button in a button-sized (1-1/8") hole.

The Tornado uses four screws to mount to the underside of the panel.
