Hey gang,
My cabinet is really coming along, thanks to much help here and by trusty Project Arcade book. I have a few questions as I wire up my control panel...
1. I have an 8-button layout and a minipac. What is the optimal way to wire this. I started doing it and then tried playing Street Fighter. My buttons seemed off. Could someone matchup the standard switch(SW) wiring pattern for me? I went top - 1,2,3,4 & bottom 5,6,7,8 - but that seems wrong. Should it go top odds, bottom evens? Maybe 1237, 4568?
TopRed SW1
TopYellow ?
TopGreen ?
TopBlue ?
BotRed ?
BotYellow ?
BotGreen ?
BotBlue ?
2. I swapped in the long handle for my U360, attached to panel and plugged it in. When I started playing, I'm off 90 degrees (up moves right, right moves down, etc). Did I screw up here? If so, what's the best way to fix it.
I haven't wired anything for player 2 yet, waiting until I get player 1 right (and some parts come in).
3. How do you guys wire up your pinball buttons? I currently will just have right/left flipper and right/left nudge.
Thanks for the assist!
:cheers:

You can just reattach the PCB to face the correct direction.
