| How do I hook up a World Series Baseball Controls? |

Hello I just acquired a World Series Control Panel. And I'm wondering if anyone has hooked up the Pitching & Batting controls to their panel? If so, how does one do it? As I'm not sure how I go about adding these 2 joysticks. As it appears the 2 joysticks go through a Interface board under the panel and then plug in directly to PCB. So even a wiring diagram would be a good start. Thanks! -GGKoul |

I have them hooked up to my panel. Each spring-loaded joystick consists of 2 5k pots. I simply used 1UP's Microsoft Dual Strike hack to wire them up, and they worked great in Mame. http://www.1uparcade.com/projects-dualstrike.html I worked with the wires that come out of the joysticks themselves, so the PCB on the control panel is not involved. Either hack 2 Sidewinder's, or buy the new analog joystick interface card: http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=17230;start=msg136541#msg136541 If you need some more detailed information, ask and I will whip something up. It was a piece of cake, it was inexpensive, and it's really cool. Have fun! |

Hey Thanks for the reply. I actually have some Sidewinders that I could use. I assume you had to use 2 sidewinders, one for the batting and one for the pitching? Could you provide a wiring diagram? Thanks!! -GGKoul |

I did exactly like in 1UP's diagram. Each controller has one "up/down" pot and one "left/right" pot, so you only need to wire up the 2 red, 2 white, and 2 black wires (those are the colors in the diagram, not on the actual controller) from the Dual Strike circuit board to the pots on the baseball joysticks: http://www.1uparcade.com/images/DS_Board_02.jpg |
