Coin Door Problem
Thenasty:
1sw7 and 2sw7 are not map to any COIN INPUTS (5,6,7,8) by default. You need to switch the IPAC to alt and re-map 1sw7 and 2sw7 to what you want.
Which IPAC do you have ?

Sorry about the confusion, I did not word that too well.
I know they are not for the coins. I just want to use them as active buttons mapped to a key. I already have the IPAC set on ALT.

Glad to read that you got the problem solved and a multi-meter too.
As far a the ipac goes you can use the buttons for whatever you want. I have sw7 as the enter key and sw8 as the pause key. Just program the keys with the Ipac programming utility.
If you just got the Ipac you'll need to use the newer WinIpac IPD program and not the older WinIpac. Also don't forget to change the Ipac jumper to alt for programming. If you installed the older utility, uninstall both and reinstall the IPD version. Also in the software don't forget to 1) set which type of Ipac you have and 2) set if you have it connected via USB or PS/2 (can you tell that I recently had a problem programming my Ipac?)

Thanks! And thanks for your help and suggestions.
I have it set to USB (which is what I have) and ALT. I am still using the older WinIpac, so I will try the newer one and see if that fixes the problem.
In the older version of WinIpac that I have it doesn't even register a key press for either sw7 or sw8 even though they are hooked up.
I will report back after trying the new WinIpac program.

I tried the new WinIPAC program and still no change. I get no response from 1sw7 or 2sw7. Any other thoughts?
