This is something in the works though. There are raw analog outputs on the I/O connector and these are for plugging into a new interface board which will support this. No timescale on this though. --- End quote --- Hmm... I'd be seriously interested in getting full analog out of this thing for consoles. For our sticks, we keep the pcb's in a removable project box, so the same stick can be used on multiple platforms. If I can pull a raw analog signal from the joystick and feed it into the boxes, I'd be in heaven. It looks like I can, but I need some clarification: http://www.ultimarc.com/ultrastik_inst.html When used in "output mode, USB not connected", Is it sending both digital and analog signals out? Blue, Orange, Yellow, Green + Grey, Violet wires? I'm confused on this point because it also says: "The post auto-detects which mode you are using." Does this mean it auto-detects between input mode and output mode only, then sets itself to send or receive the appropriate signals to/from the posts? Or does it also disable the analog out (grey/violet) if you're using the digital out (Blue/Orange/Green?Grey)? My Notes (somebody correct me if I'm wrong): Same mouting plate dimensions as a super. Oval top is ~5mm shorter deck-height than a super, Ball top is ~18mm shorter. Shallower than a super below panel. BOATLOADS cheaper than Happ analog sticks. Includes an 8-button encoder (input mode only). btw, the link for more info on the wire harness on this page redirects to the home page. |

Wow, this looks like an awesome product. What's the minimum mounting depth on this stick? (Wonder if I could shoehorn it into my micro cab...) EDIT: Found it--2 inches. I think I could get it to work depth-wise. Not sure yet if I'll have room for the plate. Oh, and it'll work with my Sanwa mini balltop? Awesome. |

Andy...I own a bunch of your encoders and I have to say you've outdone yourself this time. I just wish I didn't have a full collection of encoders and joysticks now floating around in the MameMaster laboratory! I still may pick up one or two soon..... Well done! :cheers: |
