So my first cabinet is done (almost). It's a 3-control panel cocktail. On the long side I cannot fit the 1-player, 2-player arcade buttons after everything else is in place. I have the small pushbuttons from Happ, but I don't know how to wire them. The button has 2 prongs on the back. Anyone know how to connect these to my IPac? If this makes no sense, let me know and I'll try to provide more info. |

It looks like a momentary pushbutton (without a microswitch) which would mean that you can connect one end to the ground on the iPac and the other to the Player 1 start button input. Do the same for player 2. It does not matter which one you connect to ground or the input. Momentary pushbuttons do not have a microswitch on them. Basically, that means that they complete a circuit when pressed. It would be equivalent to taking a wire that was attached to the ground input and a wire that was attached to the player1 start input and touching them together for a moment. That would close the circuit and allow the signal to simulate a key press. Does this make sense? Let me know if I can explain it better. ~ DeLuSioNaL |

That does make sense, and that is pretty much the button I've got. Thanks for your help! |
