Title: minimum CP height
Post by: 2slk on February 04, 2003, 04:49:43 pm
I'm starting to build the box for my standalone CP this evening. I've made my layout but all my parts haven't arrived yet. I'm not sure what the minimum height clearance I need is. I'm using j-sticks and horizontal micro switch pushbuttons from ultimarc and a betson trackball unit. Thanks in advance.

I would allow 40mm for the J-stick (actually ~37mm including the metal plate).

But for the pushbuttons you need to allow 60mm (actually ~56mm but don't forget spade connector!)

Sorry I can't help with the trackball depth, but it is probably more than the above measurements...
