Title: Help connecting U-Trak to Ipac Ultimate
Post by: JudgeRob on February 12, 2016, 12:04:11 pm

Feel like I am doing something dumb here.  The x and y axis are reversed.  I'll attach a pic of the way I've plugged it in.  I've tried swapping the two cables, which swaps the x and y axis, but then the response is still backward (ie, push ball to the left, but the pointer moves right).  I tried to reconfigure in the WinIpac software, but changing the configurations doesn't seem to do anything.  Help!

It should be possible to reverse the X and Y axes in WinIPAC.

But another way is to swap the pair of inner 2 wires in the connector (not red or black) which will reverse the movement.
The wires can be removed by slightly lifting the tab on the side of the connector housing just enough to allow the wire and contact to be pulled out.

Thanks Andy.  I swapped the wires and it works.  Weird that I couldn't do it via the WinIPAC.
