Dealing with multiple joysticks
jck_strw:
Hi
Hopefully my crude, quickie attachment came through...
Anyhow, I'm close to the wiring stage of my cab construction. My control panel has 6 joysticks (4 are 8 way, 2 are 4 way), one USB trackball and one USB spinner [not in pic]. I have an Ipac4.
Since the Ipac4 is designed to handle only 4 joysticks, how do I wire all 6 joysticks/buttons? Do I need an Ipac2? How is this situation handled? How are they daisy-chained together? Can I (and/or should I) just wire all four player 1 and player 2 joysticks to the same ipac4?
Thanks for any pointers.

Even though you have 6 control settings, you only have 4 players.
Both sets of player one controls should be wired to the same place, and the same goes for player 2.
That being said...
That is an aweful busy/cluttered looking set up. Is the actual control panel as compact as that picture seems to show it?
GGKoul:
Since P1 & P2 aren't going to be playing both sets at the same time, you double wire the joysticks and buttons into the same slots on the IPAC
Why the 2 different Setups? I assume for 4 way & 8 way joysticks. Why don't you just get a 4/8 Way T-Slik Plus?
