« on: September 30, 2008, 05:35:30 am »
beatson pinout,   
red-5v
black-gnd
yellow, green, gray, blue x-y ???

using fresh bank,
i connected red to red on u-hid and assigned to power
black i connected to uhid gnd

when i assigned the others and select x for yellow and it made orange and yellow x and the other 2 x reversed or y.

i cant get trackball to do anything on windows, whats wrong


**update, found site that says
x=blue /purple
y=yellow/green

so on uhid i connected orange to green on tb, yellow-yellow, gray to blue on tb, purp to purp.

and assigned  pin 9. 10  to y and x is  5,6   ,when i click on  6 and 10 reverse is checked?

trackball goes right/left bur not  up down?

and r/l is hit and miss

Is the trackball known to be good?
It possible (but unlikely) that the current consumption of the trackball exceeds the maximum from one pin on the U-HID. You could check the 5 volts is actually 5 using a test meter. If it is less than 5, connect the 5 volt pin on the trackball to one of the direct 5 volt connections on J7.

You can check (or uncheck) "Reverse" in the configuration.
