Re: Ch MVP Trackball

Will do that later. By the way, you're welcome to register there. As for stuck bearings - don't discard them! They're of fine quality, and relatively easy to restore with some patience and basic tools: https://forum.trackballs.eu/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=12 Done registering. Will check that out. Thanks

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

Meanwhile, out of curiosity I've finally discovered who is that MVP your trackball was OEMed for: https://www.visionpro.com/wp-content/themes/mvp/img/logo_mvp.png Good to know. Now I'm curious what machine my trackball has been connected to. Meanwhile I haven't got the time to make it working, thou...

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

I doubt you'll be able to find a converter: Sun always was a "niche market", and prior to your CH it was only ITAC known to me who made compatible trackballs... I'm pretty sure your best bet is to replace the controller. Not a big deal BTW, and if you don't want to deal with Arduino and similar thi...

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

Very unlikely indeed. Never owned SGI, but on old Apple machines serial pointing devices were not normally supported, at least by MacOS itself. That doesn't mean it can't be done, though: during my Mac-addiction period, it was impossible to find ADB trackball in my country - so being a baller, I've...

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

By the way, what does "MVP" mean? On your trackball it seems like abbreviation of company name: do you have any information about it? The reason I'm asking is, I have "Curtis MVP Mouse" trackball - but never was able to find meaning of MVP letters... https://forum.trackballs.eu/viewtopic.php?f=17&t...

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

Yeah, though I'm not familiar with the symbol. Kindly see below. It's just manufacturer's logo: stylized "CH" letters. Thanks for pointing that now. Just realized it now. lol I've never seen PS/2 or ADB devices with non-standard connectors. AFAIK MiniDIN-4 and MiniDIN-6 were integral part of these ...

Re: Ch MVP Trackball

Maybe it is for Sun Keyboard/mouse . Like Apple keyboards, Sun keyboards had a port for a mouse, but unlike Apple's ADB which used an addressable protocol, keyboard and mouse signals used different pins. If you have a multimeter, you could check continuity to see if Sun's pin assignment for mouse m...

Ch MVP Trackball

Got today another DT225 variant. At first I thought it's a PS2 as the outer shell of the socket has the same cutout, only to realize it has different pins. I searched everywhere and I can't find the same variant of this DT225. Does anyone information on this variant? The only thing I know that the s...

Re:

I just picked up one of these in ps/2 off of craigslist about 2 hours ago. I got it for 15 bucks. Needless to say I'm pretty damn happy right now :) . I bought the ADB variant lately too and will do a converter when I have some spare time. Did you happen to make a converter for your ADB variant? I ...
