Title: Is it possible to hook this up to iPac mini?
Post by: j1345 on November 27, 2015, 09:23:56 am

I have an iPac mini (purchased without the track ball harness part). and want to add a trackball to my control panel.   

Do I need a new iPac version or will the trackball work/hook up without  out it?

So far I have the following hooked up to the mini PAC:

-2 joysticks
- 18 buttons. 

If not are there any trackballs that can mount to the control panel and plug direct to use?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure about the ipac mini but if needed you can get trackballs that plug straight into usb.

There is also a usb option for the Happ trackball, I got mine years ago on ebay for $60 or so
