Keywiz Shazzam Button
« on: October 14, 2007, 10:16:15 pm »
So as I'm wiring stuff up, I questioned if I can multi-purpose the player 1 start button to double as the shazzam! key.  If so, am I limiting other functionality or will this 'just work'.  I thought I heard other people talking about how p1start+p2start was escape (with an ipac?).. and wondering how this same technique transfered over to the keywiz.

Thanks

I would take a look at the wiring diagrams over at groovy game gear.  http://groovygamegear.com/page13.html.  Looks like you could purchase one of these as well to do the same thing http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=76_80&products_id=203.

Scroll down where it says "I-PAC compatibility mode"
