Could you be more specific on what needs to be done to connect a trackball to the new OptiWiz (specifically a Happ). You mentioned popping a resistor across the data lines before the trackball is connected. What would the recommended resistor values be? It would be fantastic to use the Spinner on Z and the Trackball on X/Y- it would replace my serial Opti-Pac and my problem of mouse IDs switching would be solved. So many problems solved at once makes the TT2 cheap! :dizzy: :notworthy:
Wohooo!

Should be a whole new thread.

The resistor thing was before I did any trackball testing with the modified hardware. I tried both an Atari and Betson/Imperial trackball and they work fine on the Master board with no modifications. I haven't specifically tried the HAPP, so I can't say for sure. But I have high expectations ;)

I was getting ready to ask this myself...
Thanks for checking them out for us!

Is there really a better reason to have a spinner?
