In Reply to: Pole Position Steering Wheel posted by Tony on 28, 2001 at 2:30 PM:

:
: I am working on Interfacing an Arcade Machine steerring wheel "POLE POSITION" thru my Mouse port on my PC.
:
: The original Wteering wheel uses what appears to be a magneto sensor with a disk in the middle with holes therefroere interrupting or allowing a magnetic current to go thru the holes.
:
: Serial mice use a very similar concept with an LED emiter & receiver with a small disk with holes.
:
: problem I have is that I have No technical specifications on what I believe to be the magneto sensor, I do not know what the proper name for this device is, what current is required uto use it or what kind of signal it puts out.

: all attempts to patch his into the mouse circuit have failed miserbly
:
: do you recognize this device? do you know where I can get some specifications for it, or how I can adapt it thru a mouse/trackball ??
:
: Any info appreciated
: PLease feel free to E-mail me at Tony@tervo.com

: Regards
