Happ trackball pin out? My bad, Imperial, is the one that I need.
Hawk Daddy:
I've got the part that connects to the optic boards, I need the pinout for the connector, because thats where I have to hook up the new stuff, I've got the ground down, thats the easy part, it's universally black, most of the time.

Kremmit:
Go with BobA's color coding and you'll have it.
I'll add that some trackballs use purple in place of the brown, but the pinout on the connector is the same, at least with every Happ, Wico, and Betson/Imperial trackball I've dealt with so far. Also later Atari units, but not the older ones like the giant Missile Command / Atari Football type balls. GGG Electric Ice balls should match as well, I dunno about the Ultimarc unit as I've never had one.
Hawk Daddy:
Is H=Y, and V=X or is it the other way around?

When I made up the drawing my ref was H=Horiz=X and V=Vert=Y
