The Pinscape Controller is a special-purpose software project that I wrote for my virtual pinball machine.

New version: V2 is now available! The information below is for version 1, which will continue to be available for people who prefer the original setup.

What exactly is a virtual pinball machine? It's basically a video-game pinball emulator built to look like a real pinball machine. (The picture at right is the one I built.) You start with a standard pinball cabinet, either built from scratch or salvaged from a real machine. Inside, you install a PC motherboard to run the software, and install TVs in place of the playfield and backglass. Several Windows pinball programs can take advantage of this setup, including the open-source project Visual Pinball, which has hundreds of tables available. Building one of these makes a great DIY project, and it's a good way to add to your skills at woodworking, computers, and electronics. Check out the Cabinet Builders' Forum on vpforums.org for lots of examples and advice.

This controller project is a key piece in my setup that helps integrate the video game into the pinball cabinet. It handles several input/output tasks that are unique to virtual pinball machines. First, it lets you connect a mechanical plunger to the software, so you can launch the ball like on a real machine. Second, it sends "nudge" data to the software, based on readings from an accelerometer. This lets you interact with the game physically, which makes the playing experience more realistic and immersive. Third, the software can handle button input (for wiring flipper buttons and other cabinet buttons), and fourth, it can control output devices (for tactile feedback, button lights, flashers, and other special effects).

Documentation

The Hardware Build Guide (PDF) has detailed instructions on how to set up a Pinscape Controller for your own virtual pinball cabinet.

Update notes

December 2015 version: This version fully supports the new Expansion Board project, but it'll also run without it. The default configuration settings haven't changed, so existing setups should continue to work as before.

August 2015 version: Be sure to get the latest version of the Config Tool for windows if you're upgrading from an older version of the firmware. This update adds support for TSL1412R sensors (a version of the 1410 sensor with a slightly larger pixel array), and a config option to set the mounting orientation of the board in the firmware rather than in VP (for better support for FP and other pinball programs that don't have VP's flexibility for setting the rotation).

Feb/March 2015 software versions: If you have a CCD plunger that you've been using with the older versions, and the plunger stops working (or doesn't work as well) after you update to the latest version, you might need to increase the brightness of your light source slightly. Check the CCD exposure with the Windows config tool to see if it looks too dark. The new software reads the CCD much more quickly than the old versions did. This makes the "shutter speed" faster, which might require a little more light to get the same readings. The CCD is actually really tolerant of varying light levels, so you probably won't have to change anything for the update - I didn't. But if you do have any trouble, have a look at the exposure meter and try a slightly brighter light source if the exposure looks too dark.

Downloads

  • Config tool for Windows (.exe and C# source): this is a Windows program that lets you view the raw pixel data from the CCD sensor, trigger plunger calibration mode, and configure some of the software options on the controller.
  • Custom VP builds: I created modified versions of Visual Pinball 9.9 and Physmod5 that you might want to use in combination with this controller. The modified versions have special handling for plunger calibration specific to the Pinscape Controller, as well as some enhancements to the nudge physics. If you're not using the plunger, you might still want it for the nudge improvements. The modified version also works with any other input controller, so you can get the enhanced nudging effects even if you're using a different plunger/nudge kit. The big change in the modified versions is a "filter" for accelerometer input that's designed to make the response to cabinet nudges more realistic. It also makes the response more subdued than in the standard VP, so it's not to everyone's taste. The downloads include both the updated executables and the source code changes, in case you want to merge the changes into your own custom version(s).

    Note! These features are now standard in the official VP 9.9.1 and VP 10 releases, so you don't need my custom builds if you're using 9.9.1 or 10 or later. I don't think there's any reason to use my 9.9 instead of the official 9.9.1, but I'm leaving it here just in case. In the official VP releases, look for the checkbox "Enable Nudge Filter" in the Keys preferences dialog. (There's no checkbox in my custom builds, though; the filter is simply always on in those.)
  • Output circuit shopping list: This is a saved shopping cart at mouser.com with the parts needed for each output driver, if you want to use the LedWiz emulator feature. Note that quantities in the cart are for one output channel, so multiply everything by the number of channels you plan to use, except that you only need one of the ULN2803 transistor array chips for each eight output circuits.
  • Lemming77's potentiometer mounting bracket and shooter rod connecter: Sketchup designs for 3D-printable parts for mounting a slide potentiometer as the plunger sensor. These were designed for a particular slide potentiometer that used to be available from an Aliexpress.com seller but is no longer listed. You can probably use this design as a starting point for other similar devices; just check the dimensions before committing the design to plastic.

Features

  • Plunger position sensing, using a TAOS TSL 1410R CCD linear array sensor. This sensor is a 1280 x 1 pixel array at 400 dpi, which makes it about 3" long - almost exactly the travel distance of a standard pinball plunger. The idea is that you install the sensor just above (within a few mm of) the shooter rod on the inside of the cabinet, with the CCD window facing down, aligned with and centered on the long axis of the shooter rod, and positioned so that the rest position of the tip is about 1/2" from one end of the window. As you pull back the plunger, the tip will travel down the length of the window, and the maximum retraction point will put the tip just about at the far end of the window. Put a light source below, facing the sensor - I'm using two typical 20 mA blue LEDs about 8" away (near the floor of the cabinet) with good results. The principle of operation is that the shooter rod casts a shadow on the CCD, so pixels behind the rod will register lower brightness than pixels that aren't in the shadow. We scan down the length of the sensor for the edge between darker and brighter, and this tells us how far back the rod has been pulled. We can read the CCD at about 25-30 ms intervals, so we can get rapid updates. We pass the readings reports to VP via our USB joystick reports.

    The hardware build guide includes schematics showing how to wire the CCD to the KL25Z. It's pretty straightforward - five wires between the two devices, no external components needed. Two GPIO ports are used as outputs to send signals to the device and one is used as an ADC in to read the pixel brightness inputs. The config tool has a feature that lets you display the raw pixel readings across the array, so you can test that the CCD is working and adjust the light source to get the right exposure level.

    Alternatively, you can use a slide potentiometer as the plunger sensor. This is a cheaper and somewhat simpler option that seems to work quite nicely, as you can see in Lemming77's video of this setup in action. This option is also explained more fully in the build guide.
  • Nudge sensing via the KL25Z's on-board accelerometer. Mounting the board in your cabinet makes it feel the same accelerations the cabinet experiences when you nudge it. Visual Pinball already knows how to interpret accelerometer input as nudging, so we simply feed the acceleration readings to VP via the joystick interface.
  • Cabinet button wiring. Up to 24 pushbuttons and switches can be wired to the controller for input controls (for example, flipper buttons, the Start button, the tilt bob, coin slot switches, and service door buttons). These appear to Windows as joystick buttons. VP can map joystick buttons to pinball inputs via its keyboard preferences dialog. (You can raise the 24-button limit by editing the source code, but since all of the GPIO pins are allocated, you'll have to reassign pins currently used for other functions.)
  • LedWiz emulation (limited). In addition to emulating a joystick, the device emulates the LedWiz USB interface, so controllers on the PC side such as DirectOutput Framework can recognize it and send it commands to control lights, solenoids, and other feedback devices. 22 GPIO ports are assigned by default as feedback device outputs. This feature has some limitations. The big one is that the KL25Z hardware only has 10 PWM channels, which isn't enough for a fully decked-out cabinet. You also need to build some external power driver circuitry to use this feature, because of the paltry 4mA output capacity of the KL25Z GPIO ports. The build guide includes instructions for a simple and robust output circuit, including part numbers for the exact components you need. It's not hard if you know your way around a soldering iron, but just be aware that it'll take a little work.

Warning: This is not replacement software for the VirtuaPin plunger kit. If you bought the VirtuaPin kit, please don't try to install this software. The VP kit happens to use the same microcontroller board, but the rest of its hardware is incompatible. The VP kit uses a different type of sensor for its plunger and has completely different button wiring, so the Pinscape software won't work properly with it.

//
// The Pinscape Controller
// A comprehensive input/output controller for virtual pinball machines
//
// This project implements an I/O controller designed for use in custom-built virtual
// pinball cabinets.  It can handle nearly all of the functions involved in connecting 
// pinball simulation software on a Windows PC with devices in the cabinet, including
// input devices such as buttons and sensors, and output devices that generate visual
// or mechanical feedback during play, like lights, solenoids, and shaker motors.
// You can use one, some, or all of the functions, in any combination.  You can select
// options and configure the controller using a setup tool that runs on Windows.
//
// The main functions are:
//
//  - Nudge sensing, via the KL25Z's on-board accelerometer.  Nudging the cabinet
//    causes small accelerations that the accelerometer can detect; these are sent to
//    Visual Pinball (or other pinball emulator software) on the PC via the joystick
//    interface, using the X and Y axes.  VP and most other PC pinball emulators have 
//    native handling for this type of nudge input, so all you have to do is set some 
//    preferences in VP to let it know that an accelerometer is attached.
//
//  - Plunger position sensing, via a number of sensor options.  To use this feature,
//    you need to choose a sensor and set it up, connect the sensor electrically to 
//    the KL25Z, and configure the Pinscape software on the KL25Z to let it know how 
//    the sensor is hooked up.  The Pinscape software monitors the sensor and sends
//    readings to Visual Pinball via the joystick Z axis.  VP and other PC software
//    has native support for this type of input as well; as with the nudge setup,
//    you just have to set some options in VP to activate the plunger.
//
//    The Pinscape software supports optical sensors (the TAOS TSL1410R and TSL1412R 
//    linear sensor arrays) as well as slide potentiometers.  The specific equipment
//    that's supported, along with physical mounting and wiring details, can be found
//    in the Build Guide.
//
//    Note that while VP has its own built-in support for plunger devices like this
//    one, many existing VP tables will ignore it, because they use custom scripting 
//    that's only designed for keyboard plunger input.  The Build Guide has advice on
//    adjusting tables to add plunger support when necessary.
//
//    For best results, the plunger sensor should be calibrated.  The calibration
//    is stored in non-volatile memory on board the KL25Z, so it's only necessary
//    to do the calibration once, when you first install everything.  (You might
//    also want to re-calibrate if you physically remove and reinstall the CCD 
//    sensor or the mechanical plunger, since their alignment shift change slightly 
//    when you put everything back together.)  You can optionally install a
//    dedicated momentary switch or pushbutton to activate the calibration mode;
//    this is describe in the project documentation.  If you don't want to bother
//    with the extra button, you can also trigger calibration using the Windows 
//    setup software, which you can find on the Pinscape project page.
//
//    The calibration procedure is described in the project documentation.  Briefly,
//    when you trigger calibration mode, the software will scan the CCD for about
//    15 seconds, during which you should simply pull the physical plunger back
//    all the way, hold it for a moment, and then slowly return it to the rest
//    position.  (DON'T just release it from the retracted position, since that
//    let it shoot forward too far.  We want to measure the range from the park
//    position to the fully retracted position only.)
//
//  - Button input wiring.  24 of the KL25Z's GPIO ports are mapped as digital inputs
//    for buttons and switches.  The software reports these as joystick buttons when
//    it sends reports to the PC.  These can be used to wire physical pinball-style
//    buttons in the cabinet (e.g., flipper buttons, the Start button) and miscellaneous 
//    switches (such as a tilt bob) to the PC.  Visual Pinball can use joystick buttons
//    for input - you just have to assign a VP function to each button using VP's
//    keyboard options dialog.  To wire a button physically, connect one terminal of
//    the button switch to the KL25Z ground, and connect the other terminal to the
//    the GPIO port you wish to assign to the button.
//
//  - LedWiz emulation.  The KL25Z can appear to the PC as an LedWiz device, and will
//    accept and process LedWiz commands from the host.  The software can turn digital
//    output ports on and off, and can set varying PWM intensitiy levels on a subset
//    of ports.  (The KL25Z can only provide 6 PWM ports.  Intensity level settings on
//    other ports is ignored, so non-PWM ports can only be used for simple on/off
//    devices such as contactors and solenoids.)  The KL25Z can only supply 4mA on its
//    output ports, so external hardware is required to take advantage of the LedWiz
//    emulation.  Many different hardware designs are possible, but there's a simple
//    reference design in the documentation that uses a Darlington array IC to
//    increase the output from each port to 500mA (the same level as the LedWiz),
//    plus an extended design that adds an optocoupler and MOSFET to provide very
//    high power handling, up to about 45A or 150W, with voltages up to 100V.
//    That will handle just about any DC device directly (wtihout relays or other
//    amplifiers), and switches fast enough to support PWM devices.
//
//    The device can report any desired LedWiz unit number to the host, which makes
//    it possible to use the LedWiz emulation on a machine that also has one or more
//    actual LedWiz devices intalled.  The LedWiz design allows for up to 16 units
//    to be installed in one machine - each one is invidually addressable by its
//    distinct unit number.
//
//    The LedWiz emulation features are of course optional.  There's no need to 
//    build any of the external port hardware (or attach anything to the output 
//    ports at all) if the LedWiz features aren't needed.  Most people won't have
//    any use for the LedWiz features.  I built them mostly as a learning exercise,
//    but with a slight practical need for a handful of extra ports (I'm using the
//    cutting-edge 10-contactor setup, so my real LedWiz is full!).
//
//  - Enhanced LedWiz emulation with TLC5940 PWM controller chips.  You can attach
//    external PWM controller chips for controlling device outputs, instead of using
//    the limited LedWiz emulation through the on-board GPIO ports as described above. 
//    The software can control a set of daisy-chained TLC5940 chips, which provide
//    16 PWM outputs per chip.  Two of these chips give you the full complement
//    of 32 output ports of an actual LedWiz, and four give you 64 ports, which
//    should be plenty for nearly any virtual pinball project.  A private, extended
//    version of the LedWiz protocol lets the host control the extra outputs, up to
//    128 outputs per KL25Z (8 TLC5940s).  To take advantage of the extra outputs
//    on the PC side, you need software that knows about the protocol extensions,
//    which means you need the latest version of DirectOutput Framework (DOF).  VP
//    uses DOF for its output, so VP will be able to use the added ports without any
//    extra work on your part.  Older software (e.g., Future Pinball) that doesn't
//    use DOF will still be able to use the LedWiz-compatible protocol, so it'll be
//    able to control your first 32 ports (numbered 1-32 in the LedWiz scheme), but
//    older software won't be able to address higher-numbered ports.  That shouldn't
//    be a problem because older software wouldn't know what to do with the extra
//    devices anyway - FP, for example, is limited to a pre-defined set of outputs.
//    As long as you put the most common devices on the first 32 outputs, and use
//    higher numbered ports for the less common devices that older software can't
//    use anyway, you'll get maximum functionality out of software new and old.
//
//
//
// STATUS LIGHTS:  The on-board LED on the KL25Z flashes to indicate the current 
// device status.  The flash patterns are:
//
//    two short red flashes = the device is powered but hasn't successfully
//        connected to the host via USB (either it's not physically connected
//        to the USB port, or there was a problem with the software handshake
//        with the USB device driver on the computer)
//
//    short red flash = the host computer is in sleep/suspend mode
//
//    long yellow/green = everything's working, but the plunger hasn't
//        been calibrated; follow the calibration procedure described above.
//        This flash mode won't appear if the CCD has been disabled.  Note
//        that the device can't tell whether a CCD is physically attached;
//        if you don't have a CCD attached, you can set the appropriate option 
//        in config.h or use the  Windows config tool to disable the CCD 
//        software features.
//
//    alternating blue/green = everything's working, and the plunger has
//        been calibrated
//

// LedWiz emulation, and enhanced TLC5940 output controller
//
// There are two modes for this feature.  The default mode uses the on-board
// GPIO ports to implement device outputs - each LedWiz software port is
// connected to a physical GPIO pin on the KL25Z.  The KL25Z only has 10
// PWM channels, so in this mode only 10 LedWiz ports will be dimmable; the
// rest are strictly on/off.  The KL25Z also has a limited number of GPIO
// ports overall - not enough for the full complement of 32 LedWiz ports
// and 24 VP joystick inputs, so it's necessary to trade one against the
// other if both features are to be used.
//
// The alternative, enhanced mode uses external TLC5940 PWM controller
// chips to control device outputs.  In this mode, each LedWiz software
// port is mapped to an output on one of the external TLC5940 chips.
// Two 5940s is enough for the full set of 32 LedWiz ports, and we can
// support even more chips for even more outputs (although doing so requires
// breaking LedWiz compatibility, since the LedWiz USB protocol is hardwired
// for 32 outputs).  Every port in this mode has full PWM support.
//


// Current starting output index for "PBA" messages from the PC (using

// Accelerometer (MMA8451Q)
//

// The MMA8451Q is the KL25Z's on-board 3-axis accelerometer.
//
// This is a custom wrapper for the library code to interface to the
// MMA8451Q.  This class encapsulates an interrupt handler and 
// automatic calibration.
//
// We install an interrupt handler on the accelerometer "data ready" 
// interrupt to ensure that we fetch each sample immediately when it
// becomes available.  The accelerometer data rate is fiarly high
// (800 Hz), so it's not practical to keep up with it by polling.
// Using an interrupt handler lets us respond quickly and read
// every sample.
//
// We automatically calibrate the accelerometer so that it's not
// necessary to get it exactly level when installing it, and so
// that it's also not necessary to calibrate it manually.  There's
// lots of experience that tells us that manual calibration is a
// terrible solution, mostly because cabinets tend to shift slightly
// during use, requiring frequent recalibration.  Instead, we
// calibrate automatically.  We continuously monitor the acceleration
// data, watching for periods of constant (or nearly constant) values.
// Any time it appears that the machine has been at rest for a while
// (about 5 seconds), we'll average the readings during that rest
// period and use the result as the level rest position.  This is
// is ongoing, so we'll quickly find the center point again if the 
// machine is moved during play (by an especially aggressive bout
// of nudging, say).

// TV ON timer.  If this feature is enabled, we toggle a TV power switch
// relay (connected to a GPIO pin) to turn on the cab's TV monitors shortly
// after the system is powered.  This is useful for TVs that don't remember
// their power state and don't turn back on automatically after being
// unplugged and plugged in again.  This feature requires external
// circuitry, which is built in to the expansion board and can also be
// built separately - see the Build Guide for the circuit plan.
//
// Theory of operation: to use this feature, the cabinet must have a 
// secondary PC-style power supply (PSU2) for the feedback devices, and
// this secondary supply must be plugged in to the same power strip or 
// switched outlet that controls power to the TVs.  This lets us use PSU2
// as a proxy for the TV power state - when PSU2 is on, the TV outlet is 
// powered, and when PSU2 is off, the TV outlet is off.  We use a little 
// latch circuit powered by PSU2 to monitor the status.  The latch has a 
// current state, ON or OFF, that we can read via a GPIO input pin, and 
// we can set the state to ON by pulsing a separate GPIO output pin.  As 
// long as PSU2 is powered off, the latch stays in the OFF state, even if 
// we try to set it by pulsing the SET pin.  When PSU2 is turned on after 
// being off, the latch starts receiving power but stays in the OFF state, 
// since this is the initial condition when the power first comes on.  So 
// if our latch state pin is reading OFF, we know that PSU2 is either off 
// now or *was* off some time since we last checked.  We use a timer to 
// check the state periodically.  Each time we see the state is OFF, we 
// try pulsing the SET pin.  If the state still reads as OFF, we know 
// that PSU2 is currently off; if the state changes to ON, though, we 
// know that PSU2 has gone from OFF to ON some time between now and the 
// previous check.  When we see this condition, we start a countdown
// timer, and pulse the TV switch relay when the countdown ends.
//
// This scheme might seem a little convoluted, but it neatly handles
// all of the different cases that can occur:
//
// - Most cabinets systems are set up with "soft" PC power switches, 
//   so that the PC goes into "Soft Off" mode (ACPI state S5, in Windows
//   parlance) when the user turns off the cabinet.  In this state, the
//   motherboard supplies power to USB devices, so the KL25Z continues
//   running without interruption.  The latch system lets us monitor
//   the power state even when we're never rebooted, since the latch
//   will turn off when PSU2 is off regardless of what the KL25Z is doing.
//
// - Some cabinet builders might prefer to use "hard" power switches,
//   cutting all power to the cabinet, including the PC motherboard (and
//   thus the KL25Z) every time the machine is turned off.  This also
//   applies to the "soft" switch case above when the cabinet is unplugged,
//   a power outage occurs, etc.  In these cases, the KL25Z will do a cold
//   boot when the PC is turned on.  We don't know whether the KL25Z
//   will power up before or after PSU2, so it's not good enough to 
//   observe the *current* state of PSU2 when we first check - if PSU2
//   were to come on first, checking the current state alone would fool
//   us into thinking that no action is required, because we would never
//   have known that PSU2 was ever off.  The latch handles this case by
//   letting us see that PSU2 *was* off before we checked.
//
// - If the KL25Z is rebooted while the main system is running, or the 
//   KL25Z is unplugged and plugged back in, we will correctly leave the 
//   TVs as they are.  The latch state is independent of the KL25Z's 
//   power or software state, so it's won't affect the latch state when
//   the KL25Z is unplugged or rebooted; when we boot, we'll see that 
//   the latch is already on and that we don't have to turn on the TVs.
//   This is important because TV ON buttons are usually on/off toggles,
//   so we don't want to push the button on a TV that's already on.

            // We use the synthetic reports during a release event because the
            // physical plunger motion when released is too fast for VP to track.
            // VP only syncs its internal physics model with the outside world 
            // about every 10ms.  In that amount of time, the plunger moves
            // fast enough when released that it can shoot all the way forward,
            // bounce off of the barrel spring, and rebound part of the way
            // back.  The result is the classic analog-to-digital problem of
            // sample aliasing.  If we happen to time our sample during the
            // release motion so that we catch the plunger at the peak of a
            // bounce, the digital signal incorrectly looks like the plunger
            // is moving slowly forward - VP thinks we went from fully
            // retracted to half retracted in the sample interval, whereas
            // we actually traveled all the way forward and half way back,
            // so the speed VP infers is about 1/3 of the actual speed.
            //
            // To correct this, we take advantage of our ability to sample 
            // the CCD image several times in the course of a VP report.  If
            // we catch the plunger near the origin after we've seen it
            // retracted, we go into Release Event mode.  During this mode,
            // we stop reporting the true physical plunger position, and

            // immediately shooting forward to a position in front of the
            // park position that's in proportion to how far back the plunger
            // was just before the release, and we then report it stationary
            // at the park position.  We continue to report the stationary
            // park position until the actual physical plunger motion has
