Title: Led & Button on same pcb
Post by: Zizza on March 15, 2013, 01:34:02 pm

I guys
I'm creating my new GT/Rally wheel but I need a little help. Basically I need to be able to connect in the same pcb, buttons and LED. Any advice?

Hello.
Do you know what product you want to use?

The Pro-Shift can drive LEDs, but can only handle 4 buttons.

The DLC-247 can handle LEDs too, but not the buttons. it requires a separate controller for that, like the JC24 or JC32.

Regards
Cristiano

I thought I was as an alternative to connect the Pro Shift and the JC24 in a usb hub and then via a single USB cable to PC...
but I don't know if a single USB has enough power for both controllers

Using an usb hub to connect pro shift and JC24 should work fine.
I am working on a new version of the pro shift that will have 8buttons instead of 4.
At the moment I have only received the pcbs. I need to upgrade the firmware and that will take some time.
