Need help connecting Virtua Golf CP - STILL NEED HELP!!

My Virtua Golf CP has two US conenctors on it (not sure if they're mostly like that or not.)
There is also a single connector that looks to be a ground, but is a 2 slot female JST.
I've connected one of the two connectors correctly (I believe) as the buttons work in the test screen.
However, no matter what I connect the other connector to, I don't get the trackball working.
The red LED on the I/O board is on (on the CP, so I think that something's working.
Can anyone help? Pics are appreciated if possible.
Thanks,
Steve

The trackball pcb has a usb connection that you haven't mentioned. Did you connect it?

Hmm...
Didn't see that.
So, one end of the USB cable connects to the I/O on the CP, where does the other end connect to?

The other end goes to the main I/O.
So there will be an USB cable going from the Naomi mobo to the I/O, and another cable from the I/O to the trackball PCB.

Correct! The boards are daisy-chained together.

Where on the I/O does the USB connect? I already have the Naomi mobo connected to the I/O, so I'm wondering where the "out" from the I/O to the trackball pcb is.
(Or is it obvious?)
Thanks,

On the I/O board there is two USB connectors
Port A, Port B
From Naomi (Port A) should go to Port B on the I/O (Main I/o) then from Port A on the main I/O to Port B on the V/Golf I/O
So you need an extra USB A/B cable.
Remember the V-Golf I/O also needs +5V, which it should get from the 12pin connector (pin 11).

It's quite obvious. Obvious enough that it almost bit you. :smt005

It's right here:
The other is the one that connects to the Naomi(

I'm not sure if this is already connected or not.
Can you post a pic?

LOL
I actually have the other I/O instead of this one.
However, I believe that the USB connectors are still the same. I'll take a look when I get home.
Thanks!
