Configuring and Enabling Flippers/Pop Bumpers/Slingshots in LISY
Related Config File Sections:
System 1/80 does not support rules in software for flippers/pop bumpers/slingshots because CPUs were not fast enough at that time. Instead, they installed a hardware relay to enable flippers/pop bumpers/slingshots by connecting them physically to the corresponding switches (similar to fliptronics).
All you have to do is to configure the game_over_relay (which is
connected as light) in LISY1 and LISY80:
digital_outputs:
game_over_relay:
number: 1
type: light
enable_events: ball_started
disable_events: ball_will_end
In LISY35 the same relay is connected to a driver. You can use this example to enable flippers:
digital_outputs:
flipper_enabling_relay:
type: driver
number: 16
enable_events: ball_started
disable_events: ball_will_end
This config will automatically enable the flippers on ball start and disable them on ball end. You can add more events to enable/disable them during the game.
