Atari_Owl Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Hi Guys I've been trying to connect up a timing system to the enhanced joystick port on my STE. Circuits is essentially Pin 11 -------- o / (Switch) ------ 150 ohm ------Pin 9 (ground) Seemed to work for a while and then it stopped sensing changes.. that is it now considers Pin11 to be permanently pulled down. Have i fried the pin? Is there anything to be done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Owl Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Nevermind. It's not fried. For some reason its staying low sometimes. This may be because its simply directly connected instead of picking rows etc by sending a mask. I'm not really sure what to do about this. I made sure i'm sending no masks and it works for a while, then it just flips low and stays there until i connect up a joypad instead. Frustrating.

Atari_Owl Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Yep Nevermind. The voltage is all over the place. It knackered. Oh well. teh others are fine. I think it was the one that pulled out the pin of the joypad anyway. Nevermind the others seem much steadier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
