HORI Fighting EDGE

Tech Talk
929

I just wanted to compile a list of information in case anyone comes across this thread. I have modded my PS3 Fighting edge with the Brook UFB. All of the LEDs work, all of the touch panel buttons work, and I installed a toggle switch to flip between the red and blue side LEDs.

I’ll only be listing the things needed to make the stick completely work. As a bonus, I’ll explain how to wire the side LEDs to a toggle switch.

****************** I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DAMAGE YOUR HORI FIGHTING EDGE *****************

CN3: Touch Panel Buttons

Red = VCC(make sure to use a 100ohm resistor if soldering to the board)
White = CNF on the touch panel
Black = X on the touch panel
Yellow = Select on the touch panel
Green = Start on the touch panel
Orange = Ground

CN15: Touch panel LEDs

White = Touch panel LEDs(Solder to 100 ohm resistor then solder that to VCC)
Black = Lockout(‘X’) touch panel LED(Solder to 100 ohm resistor then solder to VCC)
RED = Ground
The rest are not used

CN5: Buttons

Gray = L2
White = L1
Orange = R2
Purple = R1
Green = O
Yellow = Triangle
Red = X
Blue = Square
Black = Ground

CN13: Guide button

Red = Guide
White = Ground

CN1: Joystick lever

Red = Down
Orange = Up
Yellow = Left
Green = Right
Black = Ground

Side LEDs:
Purple & Blue Wires = Red LEDs
Black Wires = Blue LEDs
White Wires = Ground

In order to switch between the blue and red side LEDs, I used a SPDT toggle switch the I picked up from the auto parts store. I don’t know how to write electrical schematics so here’s a super basic guide:

Middle pin -> 100ohm resistor -> VCC

Left Pin -> Tie the purple and blue wires together then connect to the left pin. You will need extra wire to do this.

Right pin -> Tie both black wires together and connect them to the right pin. You will need extra wire to do this.

Connect both white wires to ground.

And there you have it. A complete guide to wiring the Hori Fighting Edge to the Brook UFB. If you have any questions, shoot me a pm.

pictures please solodus

The new PS4 Fighting Edge is right around the corner.

932

Sexy. One please.

933

Yup , Im need pics too

I have this Hori Fighting Edge with a new UFB waiting to get finished. I have resistors too.
I wish to get the touch LEDs & the side LEDs working but no F’n clue what to do & I couldn’t understand it in the forums . mine is the 360 ver

Hey guys sorry for the super late response but here’s how you wire the side LEDs to a toggle switch:

Hey guys here is how you wire the side LEDs

936

Here is a picture of the touch panel wiring.

Red goes to ground.

White goes to VCC with a 10 ohm resistor.

Credit to Hori, I might be biased but I think the white fighting edge is one of the best looking sticks to have been released. I still drool at their VLX as well, but that’s just based on the vewlix, I feel like the fact that this is an original design makes it somewhat more impressive.

@Solodus hi, can you post or send me a picture off you FE wire to the UFB. I’m kind of stuck on my ps3 and my english is not very good (sorry I’m french)

939

Thank you very much !!!

940

I finally added some pics.

941

Hi, i Have some questions about the wiring, can you help me?

942

Yeah man, no problem. What’s up?

I have replaced pcb on anothers fightsticks like te2+ and it works very well, but the hori fe it its Just too perfect XD, Have you taken and measure the voltages on the main pcb suplying the touch pcb?? As well the voltage that the blue/red led recibes?

944

I did at the time but I’m not sure what they are at the moment. Are you having trouble following my guide?

I have al ready purchase the resistors but i am wonderin if boths pcbs work under 5v tensión and, why using resistors?
Also i want to ask you, it is possible use the red and blue led wires to1p, 2p led on the brook ufb?

Thanks you for answering my questions, i appreciate a lot

946

To understand why you need resistors for wiring up LED’s, read this article.

It is possible but I have ran my LEDs to an SPDT toggle switch in order to choose what color I want on at any time.

947

Thanks, i was wonderin if was a lowering tensión thing or something, because in the te2+, i dindt use resistor to light up the rgb led in the main panel or the mcz red logo light,

Last questions, after installing the ufb pcb, it still enters in tournament Mode? I mean the whole led shows

One more time i am very glad for your information.

948

I’m not sure. I was going off an earlier guide. I just wanted to make a quick and simple guide for people to follow.

If you wired the touch panel buttons, they will always be active.
