Well I left my camera with my parents, so I've been unable to make some pictures and movies on the progress. Which eventually makes it less interesting to update.
But I've become further, the setup which you've seen underneath, has been a little modified. The 25V AC made the signal of 5V to my computer vibrate at 100hz. This wasn't very useful for my computer to understand what was happening. So I needed to build a more complex circuit with condensators and rectifiers to make things happen. Also I reconnected most of the relais from the 25v AC to 5V DC from my wiring interface. Only the parts that work with coils did I leave on the 25V AC.
I've constructed the most beautiful multicables, which themselves need to be photographed. And by now I've got every single target talking to the computer as an indivdual. Not flawless though, I receive the input from the coils somewhat in a ratio of 23 against 30. But I'm working on it.
Today is to try to decapitize the pinball machine. Made a start yesterday, disconnected 40 from the 50 wires. But those 10 are essenstial, I hope I'm able to shortcircuit them all.
That's it for now, I should try to recover the camera and make so new footage.
