3-use these wiring diagrams to help along with your install




if you are confident installing t0pfire with only the diagrams there is no need to read on..

but if not heres a step by step guide for you.

extra buttons


First take your to buttons bend the legs flat (be carefull not to snap them off) and solder about 3-4 inches of wire to 2 of the legs (make sure they are 2 on the same side) then twist the first 5-10 mm of wire together for strength


Now decide on your button placement and carefully drill 2 holes for them
glue the buttons in place and route 1 wire from each button to either side of the controller shell.

ok so thats the buttons installed. i will show you where to connect them later in this tutorial.

The chip

F4thAcE:
gar... im rapidfire retarted failed 555 and finally got it to work got my programmer and chips and now i can't do this either   :cry2: anyway

Heres my problem: i followed this very well i would think and i tryed it twice on different pads (not matrix) its all clean no shorts nothing is broke but when i turn it on my bottom two leds are on but VERY dim i am using a .05-Amp spst momentary trigger ( http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062546 )

i hold them down and my led goes on and then my LEFT trigger does some crappy rapid fire (like 3 shots a sec) and if i hit the trigger again my lights go dim.. so is it my triggers do i need a true tact trigger like you have or is my code wrong because i am using the programmer that came with my usb-pic programmer give me your thoughts.

the only reason i am using those triggers is because my radioshack does not stock them so i have to order them

thanks in advance :D

lakrulez14:
the only thing i can think of is u wired your push buttons wrong when u had to connect them to ground.

as for the led not excatly sure, r u using the rite resistor?

spurgurgle:
hmmm not sure sounds to me like you may have the pins mixed up..... or the wrong sort of switch...

FastBrad:
Quick question: I have got everything working and tested all modes on cod5+6. My only issue at this stage is i get a very dim light on pl4 led and when i press tact to turn right trig on the light goes out.The press and hold fuction to swicth between modes works fine but with very faint and dim led.

The left hand side works fine
