It is about a Wico trackball (from an Atari cabinet). I don't know if they use the same type of optical PCB but it might be worth a try.

: Has anyone hacked an Atari optical encoder(from a
: trackball or spinner) to a PC mouse? I am attempting to
: do this, and I cannot get it to work. I tried the mouse
: hack at the Lusid's site, but that was to interface to
: a Happ's encoder, and it doesn't work.

: Rather than go into a lot of detail here, if anyone
: thinks they can help, please let me know.

: Thanks.
