SWITCH

Expand a PKONE build with a numbered switch bank and dedicated 48 V coil outputs.

Monitor more playfield devices, drive pulse or flipper mechanisms, connect directly by USB, and extend the system over CAN bus.

PKONE Switch expansion controller

More playfield connections

Switch expands the PKONE system with numbered switch inputs and high-voltage coil control. USB and CAN bus connections support direct setup or integration into a wider board chain.

Inputs, coils and expansion

Numbered switch bank

Inputs are numbered 1–30 across the board, making cabinet and playfield wiring easier to plan, trace and service.

Coil control

Two 48 V outputs support single-coil pulse or pulse/hold devices and dual-coil flipper wiring as shown on the board map.

Host and expansion

Connect a PC through USB-B, receive CAN bus data through P1 and continue the PKONE chain from P2 using standard RJ45 cabling.

Addressable setup

An onboard Address ID selector allows multiple compatible boards to operate within the same PKONE system.

Diagnostics

5 V and MPU activity indicators make board state visible, while the CAN bus termination jumper supports reliable end-of-line setup.

Compact installation

The board measures 125 × 75 mm, with 115 × 65 mm mounting-hole centres and R4 corner detail shown on the supplied map.

Every switch and coil connection in one view

The map identifies switch banks, 48 V power and coil outputs, USB, CAN bus, board addressing, status indicators and mechanical dimensions.
