Lord of the Rings
Stern, 2003Is there anyway to enable a virtual ball lock for the sword ramp on LotR? I have tried adjusting the second switch on the sword ramp and the problem keeps coming back. Before I go digging into the manual I just thought I would even check to see if it were possible. New switches are on the way, but we have a tournament on Sunday and having to wait on the ball saver every time there are two balls locked on the sword ramp is pretty obnoxious.
What's the prob exactly? If the switches work, it's likely just an adjustment to get them working, not always mind you.
Sounds like a connection issue below the PF. Look to the switches on either side and up and down in the matrix as well, could be a daisy chain issue with another switch.
Quoted from Gov:I have adjusted the switches several times and the 2nd one in line will work intermittently no matter what I do.
Microswitches can wear out. Just replace it... You might be able to steal a microswitch off of something less important in the mean time.
Quoted from Atomicboy:Sounds like a connection issue below the PF. Look to the switches on either side and up and down in the matrix as well, could be a daisy chain issue with another switch.
OP could always swap switch #2 with #1 and see if the problem follows the switch.
