| IPAQ4 "Player 1 Up" Problem |
| (1/2) > >> |
| Sloan:
Can anyone list reasons why my IPAQ4 would be reporting that both the 1st player UP and DOWN are being triggered at the same time. Here's things I've checked: The Player 1 up and down each only have one wire running to their terminals. Both UP and DOWN are securely wired and grounded. There arent any loose fragments of wire that would be causing both wires to trigger one another. WHen I was out of ideas I figured I could try to hook up the joystick to the player 3 terminals to see if it was a bad terminal. If I attempt to hook up player 1 up and down wires to player 3 up and down, they for some reason also trigger the second players "3" and "6"th buttons. I also made sure that in the IPAQ Configuraton Utility that I'm using the default settings and that no buttons are double-mapped. I can't figure out these oddities. Having my player one joystick work properly is the last thing I need to do before I can enjoy my new cabinet. I greatly appreiate any help you guys can give. :) |

wires right? Double and tripple check them.. Oddly i had the same issue.. was a poor wire job.. |
| Sloan:
yeah wires are fine.. pretty cut and dry direct connection... the only wire related issue i can think of is that maybe if some fine loose strand of wire made its way deep inside the screw down terminal.. but i believe those terminals are actually sectioned off from one another so this doesnt happen... btw, love your sig. happy noodle boy rules ;D |

I would start isolating things one at a time and check as you go. It has to be something simple. |

How are you testing the these inputs or where is it reporting these errors? In the config utility itself or elsewhere. When you push up on the stick does it report both up and down, what happens when pushing down? Have you tried removing the up microswitch and actuating it with your finger - what are the results? Do the same for the down microswitch. Make sure that the wires are always to the NO on the microswitch. |
