Suzo Inductive - how to connect?

(1/5) > >>

LarsDK:
Hi,

I have a Suzo Universal Inductive stick here.

I want to wire it with a J-PAC from Ultimarc.
But I have no idea how to go about it.

The box says, that a "AMP MADE-N-LOCK" connector is included.
Unfortunately, it is not.

How can I connect it to a J-PAC?

Thanks for any advice.

JoyMonkey:
Are you sure the connector's not included? It's a red peice of plastic with a few connector holes in it, usually comes attached to the joystick.
Here's a photo of a disassembled stick with the connector still attached.

Yeah what joymonkey says, all 5 inductives I've ordered so far all came with the connector in place on the connector......what else is unclear about connecting it to the J-pac ?
You got ABCD for the directions, one ground and one +5V pin. It's as simple as that.

LarsDK:
OK, I guess I was expecting some sort of cable with a plug on it. :)
Yes, the lil' red connector is there, indeed.

So I have to solder wires from each of these lil' pins to plug into the J-PAC?
How is this done without the wires falling off? I can't imagine the solder being able to hold any wires under much stress there.

(and yes, I am completely new to this)

Thanks again,  :cheers:

Ow OK....

Well the idea is not to solder the wires to the connector. You simple press them in the metal pins using a small screwdriver. The metal pins will cut throught the insulation (so DON'T strip it) and make a little bit into the cupper core of the wire, so making contact. Officialy you would need a special tool to do this properly, but these are very expensive.

Be VERY carefull with the screwdriver method. Yes I hurt my hand once or twice using this method.

The thing is this only works well with the right diameter wire. The wire that is regularly used for cabs will work fine.
