Hi Ippie,

Jtspin is correct.

You also need to enable the IRQ under the device manager. The IRQ is disabled by default.

Ar, OK.
Let me do that when I get home tonight.
I would remove the exsiting setting and add it again with your instruction!

Million thx.
Hope it will be working as I had crashed mine last night...

Krisma,

Do you hear the "BZZZZZZZZZZZ" that changes when it's in Debug mode under PPJOY ?
(Click options, then DEBUG).

If not, then you're not getting the interrupt.

1. Set interrupt in BIOS.
2. Set Interrupt as Assigned in Device Manager.
3. Manually set interrupt IRQ in Configuration under Device Manager.

i hear a bzzz, but it seems like it's from transmission interference from the controller. when I unscrew the antenna the hmmm/bbbzzzzz goes away.

what about on yours?

Hi Krisma,

You have to put PPJOY in DEBUG MODE first.

BTW, remove the XTAL from the transmitter. It will reduce the battery load by disabling the Transmission.

If you can't get PPJOY to work in DEBUG MODE, then you've most likely set up the parallel port on your computer incorrectly.

Heh I just did this for a friend a few days ago.

The pins are as marked in the photo earlier in this thread.

If you want to use FMS, then use PPJOY to convert. Same circuit as above.

Once you do this, the control sequence under FMS is 4,2,3,1 with 2,3 and 1 inverted.

David.




Hey guys!

I have got some functions of the movements work.
But only tail left, left and up.
What exactly the sequence I need to put here?
I have tried to put as what David had mentioned.
But there's 8 spaces not only 4...

Please help...

Hi David,

I have done it and the "BZZZ" has gone!

There is supposed to be a buzz. You don't need to "check" the Playstation debug mode. It sounds like your cable may not be any good. Recheck that you have everything connected to the correct pins.

Has anyone been able to get this to work in G2? I have it working great in FMS, but in G2 I only get 3 of the 4 axes to work (the left/right motion of the right joystick does nothing). Everything works in FMS and in the Control Panel game controllers setup/calibrate.

Jaskel,
Did you have to change any of the Mappings/Timings from the PPjoy setup?

Krisma,
Ippie was speaking of the buzz that's caused by RF interference of the TX. I had to remove my antenna to completely get rid of that. You'll get a buzz/clicking from you PC speaker (not your sound card speakers) when the cable is working properly and you have the "Debug PPM RC interface" checked. It's really annoying! I've noticed that sometimes my controller will stop working (like if I let FMS sit for a while) and the only thing that seems to get it to start working again is to reboot.

I've attached a screenshot of my FMS settings that work for me.

Good luck!
-JT
