--- Quote from: squirrellydw on August 25, 2006, 03:06:53 pm ---Should I wire ALL my grounds together? As in going from one joystick to the next and all the buttons? I have six joysticks, 2 Reunions and 4 P360s and about 30 buttons. So I would go from the ground on the IPAC to the first switch, then to the next switch, etc and then back to the ground on the IPAC, right? Thanks --- End quote --- That is how I do my panels (start at ground on the IPac, daisychaining the switch grounds and ending at the ground on the IPac), except for my 3-sided cocktail, where I did this for each panel individually. Cheers. |

I actually ran the four (I forgot about the coin door and start buttons which are on the front of my cocktail, sonot wired with the CPs) "left side" grounds to a connector, then to one of the grounds on the IPac. Same thing with the "right side". Did that make sense ? Cheers. |

I think I understand......I think I am going to wire each CP separately and use a euro connector to attach the ground and run one wire from that to the IPAC. |
