Help with AV7000 controller build

Post by denson »

Hi,

I have an AV7000 supergun with a faulty 9000tb joystick, so I’ve decided to use a couple of old Madcatz T.E. sticks with it instead.

I have located the pin out for the 13pin din connector of the AV7000, and while it has pins for every direction and 6 buttons, it has no ground?

It has a +5v pin (which I don’t know what to do with) but I don’t know what to connect the grounds to...

Should it be as simple as connecting the stick and buttons to the corresponding pins and away we go, or is it more complicated than that?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks 8-)

Sorted now. Ground needed to be sent to the 13pin Din shielding, and +5v is only used for the auto fire circuit (which I’m not using) ;)

Now to wire the second stick up :D
