Announcing U-HID, a new generation of control interface.

looks good andy good enough for my next cab

Kaytrim:

I see on the website you have a 'nano' version of this.  Only 8 inputs.  Would it be possible to have a 'micro' version so there could be a standard joystick, 9 buttons and LEDs for at least 6 of the buttons?  This would be ideal for a portable, one person control panel.

Sweet. :cheers:

Glad to see you pushing into the sim market too, Andy.  Good luck!  :)


Is it hot swappable on the devices end?  Specifically the analog inputs (if not connected "autocentered")?  I'd guess the rest are not a problem, correct?  (besides "pressed" when switch not closed, I guess.)

Blanka:

Can you program it on Windows and does it retain settings when plugged into a Mac? I guess an OSX utility will be unavailable for a while.

Turnarcades:

I'd like to see harnesses available to make it an all-in-one solution covering a generic panel, in much the same way as the mini-pac. For example, a board supplied with both a 'lower' harness for 4 players (eg. with spade connectors on the other end for 4 joysticks, 6 buttons each) and another harness for the 'upper' section with connectors the other end to plug straight into some other Ultimarc parts (namely a trackball, a spinner and maybe a U360 or another spinner).

As a commercial arcade builder a pre-cut/plug-in/non-crimping/solderless solution like this would save me loads of time, particularly if example config files were available on the website. The mini-pac has saved me lots of construction time as with the harness and my current config files I can have a control panel done in an hour, whereas optical/analog devices take much more messing and more interfaces.

Please say this is already being considered!  :notworthy:
