Ultimarc I-PAC 2 Controller with USB Cable
Working on a MAME of Virtual Pinball machine? The I-PAC is the ideal interface for connecting arcade controllers such as pushbuttons and joysticks to your computer!
The I-PAC2 has 32 inputs which are all programmable and are marked as 2 joysticks, 8 buttons each, plus coin1, coin2, start1, start2 and MAME control keys. Any inputs can be assigned as a shift key to access an alternate code set.
- I-PAC is the ONLY keyboard encoder where each input inputs has it's own dedicated microprocessor pin. No interaction or delays, vital for multi-button games such as fighting games.
- I-PAC is much more than a keyboard encoder! Pins can be configured as mouse buttons or game controller buttons, plus power and volume control.
- I-PAC is the ONLY keyboard encoder which emulates a USB keyboard and yet breaks through the USB simultaneously-pressed-switch limit of 6 switches (plus ctrl,alt,shift) which afflicts all USB keyboard devices.
- I-PAC is the ONLY device to have a shift function which allows ANY input to be assigned to a shifted secondary keycode and the shift button can have it's own function too so no need for a dedicated extra control panel button.
- I-PAC is the ONLY device to have a self-test LED which not only gives an instant visible check of your installation but also can indicate which connection (if any) is causing a problem.
- I-PAC retains it's programming after power off. Not all keyboard encoders do this!

Ultimarc just works
01/15/2020
I started out with MAME a long time ago. My first interface board was built using a broken keyboard. I then switched to an Ultimarc i-PAC (the first version with a PS2 interface). That one lasted a long time until it got crushed during a move. I looked at the cheap ones that have become available, but I just did not want to deal with low quality. I know exactly what I am going to get when I buy an Ultimarc product, and I know who to email if I need support.
Save yourself some time, and buy high quality Ultimarc products from a great dealer like T-Molding.

Ordered this usb version to update an older ipac with keyboard type connection that was giving me difficulty. This new version is performing rock solid and plays nice with newer versions of windows. Highly recommend!
Service and response to a shipping problem was handled exemplary by T-molding. Will order from them again in the future without hesitation. Thx!!
Great product, great service

The IPAC works great, and is easy to set up/configure as advertised. The terminal blocks make the wiring very easy and the software allows for joystick/button customization.
Delivery was fast, and at a better rate than other vendors. I will definitely be shopping T-Molding.com for future arcade parts.
