How do you wire a 49 way joystick?

How do you wire up a 49 way joystick to an encoder? I ordered the KeyWiz49 from Randy, and I'll be ordering a couple Happs 49 ways, but I have no idea how to connect them. There are a number of prongs jutting out the circuit board of the 49 way, and I don't know how they are attached. Happs wasn't much help, telling me that they couldn't be used with a PC.

Can anyone help me out with this one?

Here's the image from their site...

i forget what the conputer equivalent cable and connector is...i think a power supply lead or something, but from an old power supply. 

as for connecting to the keywiz, i think he explains that in detail, porobably just a screw down or solder on thing. 

SirPoonga:

Ask RandyT.  It's his product, he should be able to tell you how to use it :)  Or he will probably answer here too.

RandyT:

Just look at the documentation sheet when it gets there :)


I actually made a nice diagram showing what goes where.  You will need a an old (or new) floppy cable for the connector. 

I'll get my "which wires on the floppy ribbon to use" pictures edited shortly.
