No Light Show with Ultimarc LED Harness
« on: November 15, 2005, 11:57:13 pm »

I just received my LED light harness from Ultimarc and have it correctly plugged into my iPac4.
I have checked off the PS2 LED Lights option in Mame 32, but there is no exciting lights to lure would-be-arcaders to my machine.
The reference card indicates it only works when certain buttons are pressed, but that doesn't seem to work neither.  I was hoping to hook it up to my illuminated Happ buttons (currently used as coin-up buttons until I get a coin door) and have them flash when being prompted to coin-up.
Any thoughts?

I think the LEDs do the same thing as the keyboard LEDs.
They do different things for different games.
For example If I run pacman and insert a coin,one of them blinks to indicate the player 1 start.
I'm sure someone else will chime in with more info.

You're supposed to check the option ON, not off.

OK now go try an Atari game. Try Centipede and tell us what happens when you add credits...
NO MORE!!

Ooops.  Bad choice of words.  I do have it selected "on" and there is still no love.  I'll try Pacman to see if it works.
