Quoted from Meegis:Something is tripping the switch. Have you gone into switch test mode to see what's active?
Having the exact same error and when I go into switches Opto #3 is active to start the game. Any clue how to clear it and fix? Thanks, Jay
Anyone have the Creeping Death Powerblades Mod? Got from Pingraffiix and after install my Electric Chair Opto is going nutty! It's definitely them because when I turn the switch to the Powerblades off it's totally normal but when "on" Auto plunges and immediately thinks the Electric Chair is being hit. When I test the switches I can see the Electro Chair Opto randomly triggering. Is it possible I hooked it up wrong? Thanks!
Quoted from Newtothis:I’m one of the fortunate majority who has the powerblades and loves them. I also remember this topic coming up in this forum not too long ago and I also don’t remember anyone having a solution other than to remove them. It is strange to me that people think the fact that the powerblades are lighted is causing the issue and the solution is to install the lighted pinball refinery blades. Personally I would suspect some sort of voltage bleed from the powerblades. I say that because I have a set of lighted magnetic hinge covers on my Tron and if you touch the right side hinge cover and the machine at the same time it will give you a little zap. My guess would be that there is an unidentified issue with some of the powerblades but I have nothing to back that up. It’s just my suspicion
Yep just the fact that when the power to the pinblades is turned on the Opto switch is getting hit before any gameplay (no lightning flashes). It's not a matter of the opto switch catching interference so much as the powerblades pulling some power from the electric chair opto. That was why I was wondering if I plugged it into the correct receiver or anyone figured out a workaround. Checking with Joe at Pingraffix too
