jrhodes Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I have a texelec joystick adapter on the way from ebay. I was wondering if, since it allows you to use c64/atari joysticks, would it also work for lightpen and mice? The seller says it should also work for sega genesis controllers.

+Ksarul Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Light Pens and Mice both require 5V to operate. The TI Joystick port does not provide that, so you would need to put something between the joystick adapter and the device to inject the necessary 5V on the correct input pin of the device. The TI Trackball from WICO has to do the same thing (It gets the 5V from a directly connected power supply).. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
