I'm planning on replacing one of the joysticks in my X-Arcade with a Happ Optical Rotary joystick, and I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to interface it. I can connect the joystick to the X-Arcade PCB, but what about the optical part? Is there some kind of USB interface that will connect the optical rotary straight into the USB port, or do I need something else? I've searched all the previous threads and I see that most options involve the Opti-pac or something similar, but those threads centered on connecting multiple joysticks/trackballs/spinners. I'm just trying to connect the one joystick. Has anyone done this with a more straighforward method? I'm not a very tech oriented person so the easier the method the better!

OptiWiz at GroovyGameGear may be the way to go then.
