Sorry to bump an old thread folks, but I've had some time to be able to set this up now, and the stick and buttons are all working fine, but I can't for the life of me get the rotation to work
.
The wires coming out of the rotary part of the stick are (left to right, looking with the rotary dial facing up) red, brown, orange, yellow.
As Andy commented I tried to connect to the spinner connector on the IPAC2 -
I mentioned using an Opti-PAC as this has screw terminals for easy connection but Scott is correct above in that the spinner connector on an IPAC 2 would also work. This would need the correct connector or wires to splice onto the Happ optical connector.
I connected the yellow wire from the rotary control to the IPAC2 so yellow, white, green, brown on the IPAC to yellow, orange, brown, red from the stick but no joy.
I've checked in WinIpac and the interface is set correctly to disabled but when i turn the stick I don't get any input (I also read that the mouse should move once rotated, but nothing).
Do I need to change the wires around (Andy mentioned splicing them but I'm not sure what goes to where)? If so can anybody please be kind enough to tell me which wires from the rotary control go to which part of the IPAC2 (Spinner/trackball).
sorry to be a pain, I've spent some time trying to google how to do make it work but think I need some expert advice
Thanks
