Here's a pic. The boards are on their sides. |

And just to note, I'm not really complaining, I'm just confused. |

Hard to see the "optic boards" in your pic, but it almost looks like they're empty of circuits and components except for the optic sensors. If that's the case, why not just cut the boards to fit and replace the ones that are currently in your trackball? You can send the old ones to me. ;) Or, desolder the wires from the optics on the boards that came with your mouse hack and solder them to the optics on your existing boards. Or, ??? |

Oscar's mouse hacks come with pin headers where the gray wires are soldered to the board. From there you run wires to the header for the trackball end of things. The optic boards, and gray wire that you have with that are not part of Oscar's standard mouse hack. To get it running, you need to cut the optic boards off the mouse hack, and run the wires to your trackball. There will be a +5v, a gnd, and two colored wires that run to each optic card on the trackball. If your axis comes out swapped in Windows, reverse the two colored wires. |

Hard to see, but it looks like you have a pair of opto emitters and transistors wired to the board. |
