Well guys; I BLEW IT "Big Time". Steve asked me to design a
new 2120 board. But this time, let it have enough inputs to
easily attach 31 Toggle Switches to ONE Board. Jumping at
this opportunity; I said "Sure Steve, No Problem". All was fine
until I received the PC Board order from the manufacturer,
and to my surprise, there were 12 open copper traces on the
board. Ahhhh! Well, we can't sell these boards as perfect
items (31 toggle switch inputs with 1/4 second output pulses),
but I can offer you the boards, as is, with 19 inputs. But, here
is the Good News, All the open copper traces go to the 17x2
male header connector, so if you are good with a soldering
iron, I'll show you where the open copper traces are and you
can solder a short jumper wire to complete the circuit. What
will you then have? A fully functioning 31 toggle switch input,
2230 board at an unheard of price of only $47.00 (+ Shipping). If these circuit boards were in perfect condition; the 2230 will be selling on our website right now for $67.00 each. So if you have a knowledge of soldering, why not take a change on a STRONG possibility of including 31 SPST Toggle Switches to your flight sim setup and save $20.00 to boot? But, PLEASE don't tell Steve or Coy that I'm selling the boards to you at this deep discount. If Steve finds out, I'll be in BIG Trouble.
Even with the open copper traces, the 2230 is 100% operational. It will be sensed by your computer as a Joystick device and will load the appropriate Driver Software. The board measures 3 1/8 inches by 2 1/2inches. The board also includes a small Perfboard area to mount additional components or to be used as a common connection point for other flight sim switches or panels.
Instructions for the simple repair can be found HERE

For the proper operation on the Encoder Board, you need to Download the Encoder Utility Program. This program allows you to adjust "Pulse Timing" and "Pluse Width" on each of the 6 Available Rotary Switches on the 2090 Board. The program will also allow you to connect a number of Rotary Encoder Boards to the USB Port of same computer while
allowing you to keep track on timing pusles on each and every Rotary Switch available on your system. This is accomplished by the unique Serial Number programmed into each 2090 Board. Add up to ten 2090 Boards to your Computer's USB Port. More can be added but it is advised that a Power USB Hub be used to prevent a current drain on your computer
system.
To the left is a photo of the Encoder Utility Program showing suggested settings for the first six Rotary Switches.
Please note that the Utility Program shows 16 available Rotary Switches, these aditional settings are for future expansion and is not available on the
2090 Board.
