Using 360 joysticks(fixed on to next ?)
« on: July 17, 2004, 11:03:44 pm »
I have two wico 360 joys that I am trying to use with my xarcade board in my mame cabinet. Will I be able to use these with xarcade board? Right now I cant get any of the buttons or joys to work only the keyboard witch is plugged into the xarcade encoder.

After some more testing I have learned that the buttons work when the power to the joy sticks is not there. I am powering the joysticks with a 5v power brick because I need them both for the comp and my xbox. How I wired them is with the 5v supply from the brick to the joys 5v and the ground from both the power brick and the switchs to the ground on the 360. Well any input would be great.

x-arcade PCB dont have 5+ so you have to use an external adaptor or 5+ from your atx computer power supply. I have an adaptor if you are interested I can try to see if I can get 2 p360s to work at the same time or something 8)

I fixed the problem but putting two regular joysticks in :)  Will sell-trade the opticals if anyone is interested. Does anyone have any ides to power on my xbox with out having to reach in the cabinet and without having to open the xbox.  


My cab(MameBox) is pretty much finished an xbox and a computer, able to play both without having to reach into the cabinet. I will post some pics in the projects page.
