Replicating Buttons On A Wired Cl Board.
« on: November 02, 2013, 02:47:00 AM »

The CL isn't a common ground controller. It's uses a common line with voltage on it. Every connection you need there is on the back side of the PCB and has a nice TP spot for it, no prepping Vias.

All of those nice arrows there point to the same spot, you can trace the red to green ones and see they're connected. That's the common line connection for the buttons, so that wouldn't have done anything but shorted the common line voltage to ground when any of the new buttons were pressed.

Sorry to waste your time, after I posted this i found that thread. All i know about electronics(which is not much) has been trial and error for me. Thanks again for this wonderful set of resources and community, it truly is unique, much larger gaming/modding forums wouldnt know half of this shit.
