Title: Wacky Microswitch!!
Post by: AndyWarne on July 25, 2007, 01:59:00 pm

I thought this customer had lost it until he sent me a picture of this microswitch he could not work out how to connect! Not surprised, take a look at the markings...

I think that's a switch off the "Up" position of a Galaga joystick.

it looks like the upper NC (2) is the normally closed switch. the bottom NC (3) is normally open. there is a simple schematic if you look closely.

well, yeah, i put an extra tab for those who like to live dangerously and daisy chain about 20 of them to the automatic change machine and the dustbuster.
