RESOLVED U360 no buttons working
Diewrecked:
Hi guys
Hope someone can help with this.
I have two U360's and both are working fine. However I am trying to wire up the button harnesses but none of the buttons work (I am doing the first one, haven't got to the second one yet).
I've cabled according to the below from http://ultimarc.com/ultrastik_inst.html :
Pin Wire Input Mode
2 Black COM Connect to COM terminals on all buttons - daisy chained
3 Brown Button 1 NO
8 Blue Button 2 NO
5 Orange Button 3 NO
6 Yellow Button 4 NO
7 Green Button 5 NO
4 Red Button 6 NO
10 Grey Button 7 NO
9 Violet Button 8 NO
Like I said none of the buttons work (even if the daisy chain on the GND failed somewhere I'd expect at least button 1 to work). I've checked in the Gamepad applet in Control Panel but none of the 8 buttons light up when you press them (I assume they're supposed to?) and MAME doesn't pick them up when I try to assign them in the Game Controls menu.
Any ideas please? Am I doing something I'm not supposed to - or not doing something I am? There' s nothing on that page about telling the U360 the harness is there, or what mode it's in (the page linked above just says "This 10-pin header can be used in two modes. The post auto-detects which mode you are using." - not sure what that means? BIOS POST???)
I don't know if this matters but I also have a JPAC solely to connect the arcade monitor and speaker connectors via JAMMA, but which is also using one key for Coin, and an OptiPAC for a trackball (no buttons).
Thanks in advance you guys.
Cheers

You shouldn't have to do anything other than wire up the buttons and connect the harness, and yes, the buttons should light up in the gamepad applet when you press them. Not sure what to suggest - got any pics of your installation?

Thanks for your reply.
Pics as requested. The last one is at an angle so you can see the coloured cables going to the NO terminals on the switches.

I see the black wire going off and away from the stick in the last picture. Where have you got it connected. It sounds like your stick is autodetecting output mode not input.

Yeah, maybe it's just the pics, but it almost looks like the black wire from the U360 harness is chopped off. Where's that going?
