## Overview

The A-PAC Analog Arcade Game Controller Interface with USB Cable offers gamers a versatile and precise control solution, featuring 4 analog axes, easy USB connectivity, and compatibility with various input devices, making it ideal for both casual and serious gaming enthusiasts.

## Description

Working on a Racing MAME machine with a steering wheel and gas pedal? The A-PAC is the interface you to need as it supports up to 4 analog (potentiometer) inputs, as well as pushbuttons. Or you can still use those same inputs for regular joysticks! The A-PAC is an analog/digital interface which emulates two gamepads. It can be used for buttons only, or various combinations of buttons and analog potentiometer (pot) devices. It can be used in any of these configurations: - 32 Buttons - One analog axis and 30 buttons - Two analog axis and 28 buttons - Three analog axis and 26 buttons - Four analog axis and 24 buttons

## Features

- Please check our site for availability: https://www.arcaderenovations.com/apac-with-usb-cable.html
- Can use 1,2,3 or 4 analog axis, or the directions can be digital,using buttons.. One-to-one-one mapping means that connecting pots or buttons for the player 1 and 2 directions is easy.
- Precision analog conversion is immune to variations in pot resistance, owing to the ratio comparison method used, so no calibration of the center position will normally be needed for analog joysticks.
- As well as using analog joysticks, any other pot devices can be useds uch as pedals, steering wheels etc.
- Ideal for flight-sim panels which require a large number of control-type buttons.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the polling interval for the analog/pot inputs? And do they work with ground-less devices like force-sensitive resistors?**
A: Both our site and Ultimarc's will have more details about the product:
https://www.arcaderenovations.com/apac-with-usb-cable.html
Regarding polling interval - "The A-PAC uses interrupt triggering rather than polling for maximum accuracy and speed."
Regarding ground-less devices - These may not work, we have no experience with them and there is no mention of them in the docs provided by Ultimarc. Their docs show a pot wired to 2 inputs plus ground, so maybe you can wire them to ground and 1 input and get half the functionality of a pot, but we can not confirm.

**Q: How do you use this for a racing cab wgen you need wheel , gas and brake on one side? Can you have it recognized as 1 player instead of 2?**
A: This supports up to 4 analog (potentiometer) inputs, so if that is how your wheel/gas/brake all work then it will work with them.  If your gas/brake are just switches then they would use the button inputs instead of the joystick inputs.  It supports up to 2 players, you can remap the inputs to be all player 1 if needed.  Sample wiring diagram and additional details are here:
https://www.arcaderenovations.com/apac-with-usb-cable.html

**Q: What driver does it use in windows 10. does it show as a hid (human interface devices) or a keyboard? vmware supports keyboards better than hid.**
A: The A-PAC is used for analog inputs, so it appears as 2 Gamepads, or "HID-compliant game controller".  If you need a keyboard input device you would use the Ultimarc I-PAC 2 instead of this board.

**Q: Will it work with spinners?**
A: This does not have a Spinner input like the I-PAC 2 has (https://www.arcaderenovations.com/ipac2-with-usb-cable.html) which can support the pulsing inputs from a spinner or trackball.  This does has 4 analog inputs, so if you were to build a spinner using a potentiometer, that would be possible, but it would act more like a steering wheel with stops, and not something that can spin continuously.

    Using it with X-Plane; works great
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2020*

This item works great, was very easy to set up. Windows 10 identified the board right away with no fuss. X-Plane recognized it as well. I used three of the four analog inputs for engine controls. I plan to use the fourth for home made rudder pedals. The button inputs work great as well.  My only complaint is that there was no literature at all in the package and I had to email the seller (who responded promptly) for a link to the wiring manual.

    Does NOT work with Hall Effect devices.
  

*by L***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2021*

I'm giving this board 4 stars because it's a beautiful board, and I have no doubt it works as designed. BUT - I bought it based on a vendor's response to my question, stating it would handle Hall Effect pots. It won't. I've been on email with Andy the expert at Ultimarc. He simply said it's not designed to handle the Hall Effect device.So my fault for relying on what I thought was correct advice from the vendor. Amazon Prime will likely deal with the return just fine.
