escape button and pause button HELP!
(1/2) > >>
skybluestav:
hey guyz im on my final part of my cab now!

everything works on the cabinet except the escape button and pause button which ive wired on 2 seperate buttons on the outside of the cab.

in the i-pac configuration tool it already has my escape button configured to button "V" and my pause button to button "C". I tried changing these buttons from V to ESC and C to P but they wont work.

I want to do it this way cos I have 2-3 other emulators on there for Sega Genesis and also SNES and both these worked well as P and ESC.

anyone know how to program Ipac to when i press ESC it will ESC and when i press P it will pause insted of pressing C for pause and C for ESC.

hope u will understand :-\

Which "I-PAC configuration tool" are you using, WiniPAC IPD (http://www.ultimarc.com/winipac_ipd.html), WiniPac (http://www.ultimarc.com/winipac.html), or DOS (http://www.ultimarc.com/ipacutil.html)  ?

if you have succeded to re-program the Ipac to "V" and "C", just do the same thing. I have an older model and I need to make sure that the JUMPER is in the right place. Dunno about newer models if this exist apply.
Usually what I do also, is just I edit the IPAC???.cfg and edit it manually to the keys I want then I just re-program it using the batch mode.

I don't think he reprogrammed it, I think he has Pause wired to 1Switch7 and Escape wired to 1Switch8 and is using the defaults.

yes one is wired to 1SW7 and the other to 1SW8, I then go to the IPAC programer and tell it that i want 1SW7 to be ESCAPE (esc) and 1SW8 to be PAUSE (p) once i program it i save it and check it, once ipress the buttons they dont go blue. I then try to program the buttons again but this time i press the actual cab buttons and it configures them as C and V.

Ive now configured mame to use C and V but cant find the other emulators settings so I can change esc and pause for them to C and V.

so I thought its better to program the IPAC to work with ESC and P isntead of configuring all the emulators to work with other buttons!

if anyone knows please help!
