yes, I will do so,

many thanks in advance!

I checked all connections for short circuits using the resistance meter, but I can not find any shorts.

(however, I am a newby so maybe i have done something wrong)

What remains to try?

Thanks,

Wouter

ok,

what to do now, what should I also measure to get the full story?

what should the oscillator indicate? Does this mean there is something wrong with the chip (that i cannot fix) or could it be in the 'wiring' somewere (that i can fix)?

thanks,

Wouter

the usb lines gives a voltage of 2.9 volts
the oscillator gives about 0.01 volts

Hi,

Sorry for the slow response. I needed to get a multimeter. I am a newby so sorry for any stupid questions or remarks.

I checked the voltage both on the USB port (on the plug) and on the chip. Both indicated a 4, 38 volt. This seems ok to me, is it?

If the voltage is both at the beginning of ...

Hi,

I just finished my new IO warrior 40. If I plug it, it does not show up under the usb list (in about this mac-> more info). If I play a demo it says that no IO warrior available.

If I use the USB prober I get the following errors after plugging the IO warrior:

Ok, thanks, so for me, not being too handy the JW24A8-x module would be the best solution.

Still something not clear,...is the JW24A8-x a complete module with a chip, or do I need to get a separate joywarrior chip ? e.g. is the JW24A8-x plug and play (with switches on the one end, and usb on the ...

ok thanks.

hum. how about the joy warrior, is this sold as a kit? (with instructions etc.) or also only as a chip?

Thanks,

Sorry, another question. If i need just 3 switches, maybe even easier is the keywarrior, as this device will generate 'keysignals'. Thus I don't need to build an Xtra for acces in macromedia director, as director itself recognizes 'keyinput'. Nor use a joystick Xtra.

Or am I mistaking ...

Thanks, I indeed only need the joYwarrior then.

Could you advise me which type I would need? What i intend to do is have tree simple switches (on/off) that need to be read by my application. For me the most easiest solution would be nice in terms of soldering and programming, etc.

Thanks for the ...

Hi,

(beginners question). How difficult is it to have tree simple low voltage switches attached to IO warrior, to connect this to software that just sees if a switch is on or off?

Can I just have the swithces connected to the plate and 'plug and play'? Is there some manual with a similair thing ...

Hi,

I am new to this stuff and not a great electrotechnic either...

however, does anyone have any experience with connecting io warrior to director? Do I need an Xtra, does it exist or do I have to write it myself?

Thanks,

W.
