PCP w/artwork (My Portable Control Panel)
jmike:
Thanks :cheers: I have someone working on some artwork for the bottom of the control panel and hopefully I'll finish wiring up the LEDs for the buttons this weekend and post some more pics.
Yeah the buttons are great, easy to wire. The only thing I would say is that when inserting the LED harness into the button housing you really have to give it a push and twist to get it to lock. At first I was afraid it would break but after doing some research online I found out that this was the only way to get it to lock.
Good luck.

Yeah I was messing around with one last night and thought I was going to break it. I finally got it to snap in.
I went with clear buttons with white inserts and blue led's. Not sure how its going to look but hopefully it will turn out ok.
What kind of theme are you thinking about for the artwork
jmike:
I'm sure that combination of lighting will look good. You can't go wrong with these buttons. Send me the link when you upload some pics. :cheers:
As for theme, I have someone working on two different themes. Not sure which one will look right, but I'll upload the pics when I get them.
Just finish wiring the led on the buttons here are the pics. The only problem I'm having now is programming the spinner in mame. For some reason it's not reading it.
stephenp1983:
Man those look great lite up, nice and bright. Can't help you with your spinner problem as I've never had one in my cabs.
Here a picture of the cabinet I'm going to put them in, Cronin built it for me and I should have it by Monday. I figured the white inserts would match up well with the white tmolding I have.
Are you powering them just through a led-wiz or a pc power supply? I opted for a pac drive since its just a few buttons, and will probably configure them with the led plugin for gameex:

slasherman:
Can you give me the exact hole sizes in mm(from Norway) to the pushbuttons hole and the joystick hole and how did you get the round black plate on the joystick where it is...do I have to screw off the scew on the bottom of the joystick ?
