Stored even after power off unlike some other interfaces which lose all data when powered off.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eControls can be assigned to any keycode, game controller button, plus mouse buttons, power, sleep or wake.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e All joystick\/button connections easily made via screw tag strip. Connections marked on the board.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eChunky 5mm screw connectors .\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-Test LED gives an instant check of all your wiring. Can indicate which, if any, input has a problem.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e All button inputs referenced to ground - no need to re-wire separate grounds to each button.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Lead plugs into USB port.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eUsing host software, an unlimited number of keycode configurations can be stored and downloaded on-the-fly. Retained on power off.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e No separate power needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Does not use a matrix - no ghost keys.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Does not use a scanning method which causes a variable delay. Each input has it's own dedicated connection into the on-board CPU .\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Fast running interrupt-driven software gives much better response than a standard keyboard controller. Key debounce uses a state method for each key. No delays between keys depressed at the same time. (essential for fighting games).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Either uses standard MAME keys or you can program your own character set.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Shift functions. Holding \"Start1\" and pressing other buttons sends a range of codes for MAME functions such as \"escape\", \"Coin 1\", \"tab\", \"enter\". This means no extra buttons are needed on the cabinet. In programmable mode any input can be the shift key and all keys can be programmed with a shifted code.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e Special note for Windows MAME users! Shift key functions mean you can select and start games from the Windows interface without using the keyboard or mouse.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e No special drivers needed. USB drivers are generic Windows.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFully compatible with all Apple Macs which have USB ports.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSupports the Apple Mac \"command\" key and the Windows \"GUI\" keys.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eI-PAC\u003csup\u003e4\u003c\/sup\u003e and I-PAC\u003csup\u003e2 \u003c\/sup\u003eboards and J-PAC can be paired in any combination to increase the total number of inputs.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eKeycode programming is integrated directly into many popular front ends for seamless launch of emulator or other applications which require different codesets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/www.ultimarc.com\/images\/ipac2_diag.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"h2\" align=\"left\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv align=\"left\"\u003eTechnical Info.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv align=\"left\"\u003eThe I-PAC uses a high-performance microcontroller chip .
