IF so then you'll need to either find a 5 pin wire or make one by inserting the bare wires you have into a 5 pin connector. Sounds like you got the ones designed for US type joysticks that use the same microswitch wiring as the buttons rather than the 5 pin. Normally the ZD encoder comes with the wiring for the buttons and joystick - so when ordering you need to make sure you get the one that comes with the 5 pin wire for japanese joysticks if that is what you intend to use.

is there anywhere on the web where some one has exactly outline how to use the extra functions/ what they are used for. but is there a couple of slots that I could solder some header pins into to all the encoder to support a couple extra buttons?ДЇinally. My thought was connect the joystick up via 5 Pin connection and then use the other joystick port sockets for the pinball buttons? Also, I'm a novice on this stuff. As my bartop arcade will include 3 buttons on each side (call them pinball buttons) as well as 8 buttons and a joystick up top, I'm trying to determine the best way to use 1 encoder to support 14 buttons. My other questions pretain to how many buttons the encoder can support. What is my best way to go about connecting this joy stick to the USB encoder (Note - I must connect it via the 5-pin connection on the USB encoder) On the ZD USB encoder there is a socket to plug in the other end of the 5pin wire harness except that my harness doesn't have it, just bare wires!

The 5 pin harness that the controller came with has a clip on the one end to easily connect to the joystick itself however the other end of the wire harness is just bare wires. I recently purchased all the bits for my controls including a Zero Delay USB controller however I have a couple of questions regarding how to connect the Sanwa Joystick (JLF-TP-8Y-SK) via the 5 pin wire harness. Hi there - I'm working on building a bartop arcade using RetroPie.
