| Robotron - sticky joystick signal? |
| (1/3) > >> |

Hi All, I'm having a strange problem with Robotron 2084 - the right hand joystick (fire control) signal seems to get stuck every once in a while. It will continue to shoot in the stuck direction until I let off the stick for a few seconds and then try a different direction. I don't think this has anything to do with the cherry switches - it fails in any direction. I've also checked all the connections and wiring to the IPac. Also, my cp has two joystick for player 1 and player two and I've remapped the controls to the player 2 joysticks and the problem does not occur - so it seems localized to the player 1 right hand joystick, or the ports on the IPac used by that stick. Any suggestions? Should I contact Ultimarc? Thanks |

Anyone, anyone, Buler? |

Have you tried temporarily wiring one of the Player 2 sticks (rather than just remapping) to the same Ipac terminals to see if the problem is related to the stick or the Ipac? Would at least confirm the problem is with the Ipac before you contact Ultimarc. |

I doubt something like that would be due to the encoder. |

I'll try one or the other. Thanks for the suggestion. |
