| BUCKETHEAD:
Just curious will an original TRON spinner work with an Opti-Pac ? If so? Anyone ever did it ? And can share how to wire it up correctly ? Thanks! Bucket ... |

It's not clear to me from reading that thread that a tron spinner has successfully been hooked up to an optipac using that midway board hack. Maybe I misread, but it seems like the hacked boards were hooked up to a mouse. Has anyone actually done that exact hack and hooked it to an optipac? Buckethead, have you tried this yet? I'd like to try simply because I don't know how easy it would be to mount one of fixumdude's optical boards to the tron spinner. |

I tried it. I got the LED's to light up on the old midway optical board. But when i hooked it to the Opti-Pac, i couldn't get it to do anything? Not sure if i was not doing something right or not? But i do know the LED's had power. I could see them glowing thru my cell phone. I just pulled the optical encoder from a trackball i had. And went with that. Works great !

NOTHING was easier than popping that in, plugging it in to the Optipac, and playing. It was very simple to do. |
