5. Label each of the leads coming from the PC cable. If it is still connected to

a joystick, the following pic will help identify each lead:

PC Joystick

(15-pin male connector)

[1]--------------- +5V

[2] -------------- Button 0

[3] -------------- X-axis

[6] -------------- Y-axis

[7] -------------- Button 1

[4] and [5] ------ Ground

If the cable is still connected, snip the the leads once they are all labeled.

If both Ground ([4] and [5]) leads are present, twist them together and treat

like a single Ground lead.

FINISHING UP

6. You have six labeled wires in the Apple2 joystick case: +5, GROUND, B0, B1,

X, and Y. The same six leads are labeled on the PC cable. Splice each Apple2

wire to the corresponding PC cable wire. Use heat-shrinkable tubing to cover

each connection.

7. Seat the new cable in the joystick case, arrange leads to avoid mounting

posts, etc., and close up the case. Viola!

CHECKS

If you have an Ohm meter here are some checks you can do:

X (Horizontal) Check- check R between cable pins 1 and 3. As you move stick left

to right R should go from 0 to about 100k.

Y (Vertical) Check- check R between cable pins 1 and 6. As you move stick up to

down R should go from 0 to about 100k.

Button 0 Check- (Button 0 is the main, "Fire" button.) cable pins 2 and 4 or 5.

It should be very high and go to 0 when Button 0 is pressed.

Button 1 Check- check R between cable pins 7 and 4 or 5. It should be very high

and go to 0 when Button 1 is pressed.

TRYOUT

Plug in the stick and try it with a game.

Some games (such as Elite Plus) will claim no joystick is present if the stick

is badly out of adjustment. If this happens, try the stick on a game which is

less picky and includes pre-play stick adjustment.
