snux:

Config file section

Valid in machine config files	YES
Valid in mode config files	NO

The snux: section of your config is where you configure the snux platform.

This is an example:

hardware:
    platform: virtual        # use your platform here
    driverboards: wpc
    coils: snux

system11:
    ac_relay_delay_ms: 75
    ac_relay_driver: c_ac_relay

snux:
    flipper_enable_driver: c_flipper_enable_driver
    diag_led_driver: c_diag_led_driver
    platform: virtual        # use your platform here

coils:
    c_diag_led_driver:
        number: c24
        default_hold_power: 1.0
    c_flipper_enable_driver:
        number: c23
        default_hold_power: 1.0
    c_ac_relay:
        number: c25
        default_hold_power: 1.0
    c_side_a1:
        number: c11a
    c_side_a2:
        number: c12a
        default_hold_power: 0.5
    c_side_c1:
        number: c11c
    c_side_c2:
        number: c12c
        default_hold_power: 0.5

This example is tested to be valid MPF config. However, it is not integration tested.

    platform: virtual        # use your platform here
    driverboards: wpc
    coils: snux

system11:
    ac_relay_delay_ms: 75
    ac_relay_driver: c_ac_relay

    flipper_enable_driver: c_flipper_enable_driver
    diag_led_driver: c_diag_led_driver
    platform: virtual        # use your platform here

    c_diag_led_driver:
        number: c24
        default_hold_power: 1.0
    c_flipper_enable_driver:

        default_hold_power: 1.0

    c_side_c2:
        number: c12c
        default_hold_power: 0.5

Required settings

The following sections are required in the snux: section of your config:

diag_led_driver:

Single value, type: string name of a coils: device.

The coil to use to drive the diag LED on the snux board.

flipper_enable_driver:

Single value, type: string name of a coils: device.

System 11 does not support any rules in software since the CPUs were too slow at that time. Instead, they use a relay to enable flippers, pop bumpers and slingshots. Configure the driver to use to enable the flipper enable relay.

Optional settings

The following sections are optional in the snux: section of your config. (If you don’t include them, the default will be used).

prefer_a_side_event:

Single value. The name of an event that will make the AC relay sit on the ‘A’ side when at rest. Default: game_ended Generally when the game is idle, the AC relay should be de-energised, so it sits on the ‘A’ side.

prefer_c_side_event:

Single value. The name of an event that will make the AC relay sit on the ‘C’ side when at rest. Default: game_starting Generally when the game is in play, the AC relay should be energised, favouring the ‘C’ side which generally handles the flashers. This means they respond quickly without the need to wait on the relay being energised.

platform:

Single value, type: string. Default: None

WPC Platform to connect to the SNUX board.
