SLIDE 21

Features of Note:

Case design is much more complex.

Thursday, November 17, 11

SLIDE 22

Features of Note:

DMD is reflected of the playfield glass. This requires special mirrored glass.

Thursday, November 17, 11

SLIDE 23

Features of Note:

Relay board for force feedback in this implementation expected a common ground and +5V trigger But the LEDWIZ used a common +5V and ground as the trigger. Should consider this when using LEDWIZ

SLIDE 33

Features of Note:

LEDWIZ needed relays to interact with force feedback solenoids

Thursday, November 17, 11

SLIDE 34

Features of Note:

Builder discovered that solenoids get very hot when left engaged for longer than 10 seconds - a reasonable activation time for flippers. Also found that solenoids were also sometimes left engaged when exiting a table in software.

SLIDE 35

Final Remark:

The Wildfire project page had numerous solutions for feedback motors, LEDWIZ timings, and wiring.
