Quick questions for minipac owners/users


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Received a minipac today from ozstick and wouldn't you know with easter etc no ones around to answer some fairly easy questions.

 

I am not sure what way around I am meant to connect the wiring loom to the minipac. I "think" its black wire ground to pin 2 etc. but not sure. Can anyone confirm?

 

Also all the ground wires. Am I meant to put the last connector anywhere. Since its in a series I would think it has to be grounded somewhere?

 

Or do I just leave it as is.

 

Sorry for the stupid questions. Just trying to make sure I am not making any mistakes

If you look at the connector on the mini pac, at one end there is a post by itself [.:::::::::::::::::::] ie, not in a group of two. This is the ground pin (black wire). The black wire is the connected to each button in series. There is no need to earth this wire.

Hi,

 

I'd reckon that the black wire in goes to PIN2 on the MINIPAC..

 

Its all coming along well. Except I don't have a ps2 connector in any of my computers here. doh!!!

 

So tomorrow its off to get a ps2 to usb connector

 

You have to hate it don't you :x
