I-PAC2 question

Pages: (1/2) > >>

currygoat11:

I purchased an I-PAC2 for my cocktail cabinet.. I wanted each player to have both a 4-way and an 8-way joystick (so 4 joysticks total). This is so for games where there are only 4 directions, the 4-way would be appropriate. The joystick of choice for the 8-way games would obviously be the 8-way joystick.

question is: did I purchase the wrong I-PAC model? Can an I-PAC 2 handle two joysticks wired together to the same inputs on the I-PAC2? Can I daisy-chain them together?

Thank you

MinerAl:

Yes you can attach as many joysticks as you want to the same four inputs on the IPAC.  Just be careful that you wire them so that they each work without the other.

not sure I understand what you mean, can you please elaborate? Thanks very much.

electricd:

He means make sure and use separate wires for each, and combine them at some point after the joysticks so that if one goes out or is removed, you don't have to open it up and rewire. (at least that is my advice)

Ahh okay that's what he means. Okay this is great news! I thought for a second I had screwed up.

THANKS A LOT for the quick replies :)
