dart star what is this sensor

[spudgunman]

I cant figure out what this sensor is for.. I think i have it plugged in correctly - its a motion sensor that lights up when a dart hits the board. its clear plastic and mounted to the rear of the upper unit door. but the software isn't doing anything interesting when it happens. I assume its to sense a dart that didnt hit the board? but how do make the software recognize it? I have it plugged into v/sns port on the cpu. the light lights up if I tap the unit. software is 3.25.

this is not the player change motion sensor.. it activates on shock to the board from a dart hitting it physically.

Want to sell it?

[spudgunman]

the whole thing (unit) or the sensor I dont know what it is?
if I knew what it was or wasnt I would be more inclined to sell it..

do you know what it is for?

[Nephasth]

Just the sensor, and I think you're right about it being a missed dart sensor.

[spudgunman]

if I cant get it working I will PM you but if I can get it working I cant take hi-res photos or assist with getting it working.. I assume its just a shock sensor. I live about 10miles from the manufacture I just found out and they are super cool so waiting for a call back to see if I cant get it working correctly.

Nah, man, don't bother.  Just sell it to Nephasth super cheap.

Every time I see this topic in the list I read it as "Death Star" not dart star.  Then I get super disappointed when I realize my error.

That sensor? It's the cell block escape notifier.

Went to medalist today (they are local) talked to them this was a missed dart sensor. But the software isn't using it turns out it was so problematic they didn't use it. So it's there but isn't working

[Nephasth]

That's too bad. Thanks for the update, though.

I think I remember them sending out a bulletin years ago about unplugging that silly thing because it was so erratic in operation.

Confession: I clicked on to this thread for that very reason.
Also, I was disappointed.

I read it as "dirt star". Don't google that.
