What slots do you plug your admin buttons to? I am using 7 out of the 8 SW slits for player buttons so I only have SW8 and 1A and 1B but that’s not working well for me.

Great video! I’m after a little more help if possible. I’ve bought buttons with internal switch and LED. These buttons have four connectors but don’t have any instruction or markings as what wires go to where. I’m wanting to wire this so I have two buttons doing the same action. The top RT will be used in arcade games but another side RT button will be a flipper in virtual pinball. In total it will be a two player top console with 8 buttons each and a coin and P1 and P2 start each plus right and left flipper buttons a nudge button and a ball launch on the front. Just need help on how to wire these four pin buttons so they work and light up.

Can you talk about the admin buttons? are those all linked the 1st player? or are they linked to the 2nd player as well on the usb encoder?
@ravewolfhighborn6705

Admin buttons would be things like, Shutdown, Exit Game, M.A.M.E Menu (like pressing 'Tab'), maybe Pause, or Mute... I suppose anything you want it to be or need.

I like to put mine centered in the panel. It's really up to you where you would like it to go, but in the center makes the most sense to me. Balances out the incoming wires.

Great explanations! I wish my high school math teacher were as good! :) Never seen this 4-way setup before - that's quite genius. Do you know if there's a restrictor plate or other solution for Q-bert which ONLY uses the diagonals? (maybe a way to physically rotate a 4-way joystick to and from a 45-degree rotation?)

That was awesome thanks dude!!! I like the idea of admin buttons and also an accessible volume wheel potentiometer and the various on/off buttons. Also seen people use smart switches to fire it up via google/Alexa. I notice some units also have the pinball side buttons which are cool - any ideas on an extension to this video would be well received. New sub, cheers.

Can the iPac 4 also support LED buttons? If not how would you wire one? Just with a 12V power cord for example?

Hi, can you customize your layout? I don't see an 8 button layout option on your site for the full 32? Also what encoder is best if you want to play PC fighting games? I think the keyboard encoders have a problem with 2 players and need an xinput emulator.

Great video. Just got your 4 player pedestal cabinet and been having some questions come up. This is perfect. One issue I did have is the connectors for the sanwa sticks are too short to reach the ipac no matter where I place it. What is the best way to extend these wires?

How would you change your joy stick when playing Qbert? That is a 4 way but goes diagonally? I am building an arcade machine and I was not sure if there is a way to change that joystick for that game. I will be playing so many other games that do not use the 4 way diagonal only.

Thanks for explaining this basics. That is very good :-) My questions as beginner are: I am more a casual gamer. I am searching for a button layout for playing virtual pinball games (1 player), racing games (1 player) and some other casual games for 1 or 2 players?. Is it also possible to have a wheel for racing games (vertical would be best) that can be attached or detached? (to have more space, if you play a fight game or pac man)?

Didn’t help at all, I got referred to this video from game room solutions about a lot of my games not working with the mod kit that they sent to me. Now they are trying to make me do all the technical crap that I have no clue about. This company has not treated me well and I will not be conducting business with them after this. I would still love to know how to play all the games that they promised me that I would be able to just plug in and play. False advertisement at it’s finest

Also the customer support is less than desirable, they are little to no help and will send you mis-colored buttons. I order 4 different color buttons but I received green and blue buttons. All in all horrible experience and do not recommend doing business with them, unless you want a headache dealing with them.
