Hey...need some help with custom switches. We are making the Operator Switch Box but I can't seem to find the pinout chart for where the 3 wires go. I know that we gotta plug it into Port 3 or 4 cause using P1 and P2 for joysticks. Does anyone know where I can find a pinout chart for switches. Thanks.

If you download the control system manual from www.innovationfirst.com, the pinouts for all four ports are there...

Check out the Innovation First Web site and download the control system users manual. You will find what you are looking for in seciton 4.3, pages 14-17.
