How To hook up a coin and trackball?
« on: May 15, 2007, 08:03:18 pm »
I can't figure out how to wire the trackball and my coin door!  I have an opti-pac and a i-pac if thats of any help.

The trackball is explained on this page:
http://www.ultimarc.com/optipac3.html

For the coin door you just need to trace the wires from the 2 credit switches to the harness you have pictured. Snip them off at the harness and extend the wires so they will reach your iPac.

You'll have a ground(likely black) and a trigger wire coming from each switch.
Connect the grounds to the ground terminal on your iPac and the trigger wires to the appropriate terminals on your iPac. Player1 coin is 5, Player2 coin is 6.

I guess you are using a camera phone to take those pictures ..... kind of hard to make out what you are showing us in them.
