arkanoid spinner pinout needed
menace:
Does anyone have an arkanoid who could take a picture of the spinner guts for me? I need to see the color of wire going to each lead to figure out which pin is which. Thanks in advance
jerryjanis:
Here's a thread with a couple of picturs of some other optic boards. I have been able to figure out some optic boards from similar pictures by tracing the circuitboard and seeing which ones go to the resistor:

cool! thanks--I'll see if I can piece it together based on that. I'll post pics back in that thread for a running spinner pinout page.

I have an Arkanoid running on my cab. The pinout is as follows (left to right)
Green Black Red Blue
X1 GND 5V X2
As far as the placement, here's a cheesy picture (sorry my cam is not very good at closeups)

Thanks--I have that exact setup and it doesn't work so I suspect I have a spinner optics failure or the optipac isn't registering it (unlikley since the trackball works fine--but you never know) Guess I'll try replacing the optics and see if that helps...
