Quesition on wiring and wiring with the Keywiz Max 1.5!
Kaytrim:
On the credit buttons, don't make a loop. make a single chain with the on/off switch the first one in the chain. If you want to make a loop take a single wire from the KeyWiz ground to the switch. Then start your loop from the switch to the buttons and back to the same point on the switch.
Below are two images showing a ground loop switched and not switched.
Kaytrim:
Here is the complete circuit for the player 1 and 2 buttons and coin mechs. Black wire is ground, green wire is credit/coin for player 1 and blue is for player 2.

Hey Kaytrim, Couple of questions. What exactly do you need the wire I outlined in red for? And I like the idea of not having the kids run up the credits. This circuit doesn't allow any credits to be added unless the switch is on right? Do you have that hidden or keyed or what?

This is very nice and very cool. I think I have seen those kind of switches at Radio Shack as well. Very cool. I would love to do that for my cab when my son gets older. My marquee says free play on Saturday. So I figure never tell him about the switch secrets, and then on everyday it is not Saturday he would have to use his own quarters. Then on Saturday give him some free play. LOL! Make me some cash!

IG-88, the loop on the ground is extra protection against faults in the line. This could be caused by a bad crimp or a break in the wire. It can be omitted if you choose. I plan on using a switch inside the coin door. Seeing as the coin door is locked there is no need for a keyed switch though that is an option. If the switch is on then credits can be added from the button or coin mech. If you want only credit buttons or coin mechs working then connect the ground line to the mechs on the post opposet from the button ground line. See the image below.
