connorsdad Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 How can I test everything? I have a contactor wired upto SL, both boards connected to the ledwiz. Tried out "Simple LED test" from ledblinky and nothing happens. I've found lwsend.exe but can't seem to get anything to work with that either. I want to make sure I know how things work before I install everything into my cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 How would I go about adding undercab rgb to my setup? https://www.dropbox.com/s/b1cwhpbwn924c42/Screenshot%202014-07-26%2011.24.08.png Would I have to lose 3 of the first 4 ports?

mikekim Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 easiest solution without sacrificing any led wiz ports.. Sound to light controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 easiest solution without sacrificing any led wiz ports..Sound to light controller I've tried sound activated leds before using the pacled and ledblinky on my arcade cab, I wasn't that impressed tbh, it would be better tied to a table event. I'll probably just link them to an external remote and use them just for decorative purpose like those on my arcade cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebulon Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 just use the exit, extra ball and spare outputs. Exit was never implemented as a rom controlled light, extra ball is redundant and the spare is just that, a spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebulon Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 on the upper board there is a spare output. have you read the documentation on the kit? There is a couple of diagrams in it that label the outputs and what one corresponds to what terminal on the ledwiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebulon Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Well, if you've maxxed out the ports and there is nothing that you can shift to a fixed/constant output by bypassing the board then your options are to hardwire the leds and use a controller (they usually come with a remote) or add a second ledwiz into the mix.

connorsdad Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 So I finally got my ledwiz and dof working But.. When running led blinky simple led test and I run through the ports to test I get some strange behaviour, I thought each port would be one colour. 31 = led1 blue 30 = led1 green 29 = led1 red 28 = led1 white, led2 blue 27 = led1 white, led2 green 26 = led1 white, led2 red 25 = led1 white, led3 blue 24 = led3 green 23 = led3 red 22 = led4 blue 21 = led4 green 20 = led3 yellow, led4 white 19 = led3 yellow, led4 cyan, led5 turquoise 18 = led3 yellow, led4 cyan, led5 turquoise 17 = = led3 yellow, led4 cyan, led5 red RGB Led bar came straight from zeb so cant see it being the led soldering, the ledwiz is soldered to the adaptor so no loose connections, no connections have been soldered together by using too much solder, any ideas?

connorsdad Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Screen placement and surround completed today. The black screen surround is from here http://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Angle-Black-PVC-15mmx15mm-x1m/p/188241 . 15mm on three sides and 20mm on one side due to the metal surround being larger on one side. Yes my garage is like a building site at the minute lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Anyone know if this will cause me trouble, having zebs boards next to the sub ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Photos from today Power socket soldered and fitted, neutrik usb fitted, rear fan+guard fitted and all hardware installed (after a little customisation to the cab to fit the shaker where I wanted it) Where should I mount my final contactor bumper jet - back (less noise)? As you can see from this photo my options are limited, too far back and its position won't relate to what's happening on screen. What about under the cross member that has the other bumper jet contactors fixed to it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 And I'm almost done Buttons to be wired to ipac and cab graphics to do.

connorsdad Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 I've started work on the artwork, my wife has again come up with the name for my cabinet "Mistress Pinball" due to the amount of time I spend with her away from my wife Please note the side rails will be above the artwork shown here, this image is what will be in view when installed. Please critique, too plain, too dark etc. Thanks Higher Res here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7794786/Pinball%20build/Prototype.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connorsdad Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 So I changed my mind regarding the artwork, after seeing Stuzzas Tron Composition I decided to reproduce it myself.

senseless Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 wOw that looks great. Congratz on (almost) finalizing your cabinet. I'm still not sure which theme I will use for my cab but Tron is definitely one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing the artwork, much appreciated!
