| I-PAC and Happs Trackball interface |

| TRIBOY:
I am a newbie and have read Project Arcade and newbie links but I can't find the answer. I have my control panel figured out and I want to make wiring "as simple as possible" This is what I have (2)8 way joysticks with (6) pushbuttons on each stick (1)Happs Trackball with (3) pushbuttons and USB/PS-2 conect. (4)player/coin up buttons,(1)pause and (1)exit button I will be using the I-Pac to interface pushbuttons and joysticks into PS-2 port and will plug in the Happs Trackball into USB. Will this work? Will the I-PAC and track ball work indeependantly? Or do you need to connect the trackball into the I-PAC system? I want to use the trackball for navigation on windows and use it for gaming. Any advice/links appreciated! Thanks |

You got it. The trackball will show up like a normal mouse. |

a standard Ipac doesnt support trackballs or spinners, you need an optipac, or minipac with optic harness |

Do I need to tie the trackball into the I-Pac with an optipac? Because I want to order the Trackball with a USB/PS2 connection, which I am assuming you can just plug into the computer? Thanks |

TRY TO GET THE PS2\USB VERSIONS. THEY WILL SAVE YOU MONEY BUYING AN OPTIPAC. UNLESS YOU WANT MULTIPLE TRACKBALLS AND SPINNERS I BELIEVE YOU CAN JUST BUY AN ADAPTER FROM OSCARCONTROLS TO ATTACH A NORMAL HAPPS TRACKBALL |
