Yours has to work the same since we both had 573s. On mine, by unplugging and jumpering the wires together, the neons would come on, and there was only 5VDC at 5ma flowing. The red/black wire connector on the back of the 573 controls the neons directly from the 573, without going to the light/amp box. With the PC and LED monitor, the whole machine takes 120VAC at 2.3amps when running driving all of the original lights. Whoever said that is nuts - unless you have a bad light/amp box and have no alternative. Yeah, I read lots of stuff about having to replace all of the lights with LEDs in the whole machine so the PACdrive's combined 1 amp through the ULN2803s would drive them directly. I could use the PacDrive Demo app to push signals out to the cab but as far as using Open ITG itself it refuses to connect to the PacDrive without the LibUSB driver.

I even tryed every trick in the book to run the install with higher permissions with no luck.

One other thing: I was trying to get open ITG up and running with lights but to do so they require the use of the Win 32 Lib USB driver, I managed to get this working on my Win 7 laptop when I was bench testing the outputs, but when I tried to get it running on my Win XP mini-tower that actually runs on my cab the driver refused to install throwing some error about not being able to use admin privs, despite the fact that I was in-fact using an admin account. Unfortunately it seems I blew out my Bass Neon inverter too so I've got to find a replacement for that before I can find a solution to switch it. I might built a little Opto-Isolator circuit for the bass neons instead. I'm going to avoid using a relay for these as I don't really like using a mechanical devices for something that switches so frequently. Since the neon inverter taps it's own power from AC completely separate from the DC circuitry that powers the rest of the cab lights coupling the earth ground from the Bass Neon with the Digital Ground from my PacDrive is probably what blew out my PacDrive last time. As I stated before, there is no relay on Japanese cab, the switching is internal to the Neon Inverter. So for anyone who wants to drive pad lights, and marquee lights and still has the original PAD I/O boards and the original Amp-Box all of those light write ups online that state you need to use relays or Mosfets is complete B/S

Coupled with the ground mod on the PacDrive this works great. I decided to measured the current draw on this circuit and they all drew about 1.3-1.7 milliamp. Specifically a circuit containing an inverting Schmidt trigger (74HC14) and a Mosfet (K2232). The dance pad lights, the control panel lights and the marquee lights are all driven from circuitry in the cab: So yesterday I modded a Pac Drive to output ground through the + pins and it worked great for driving MOST of the lights.
