Mechanisms

Logical assemblies with their actuators, sensors and observed behaviour. Click a chip to jump to the address it refers to.

Six-ball trough

mechanism.trough

Kicker

The physical trough has six ball-position sensors 17-22 plus jam opto 23. The working VPX script creates six balls but configures cvpmBallStack slots as 23,22,21,20,19,18, omitting physical switch 17 and occupying the jam position; this exact script behavior is recorded because it is the proven controller integration, while authors should construct the seven physical sensors shown by the manual. Output 1 ejects from the right end and the script pulses switch 22 after firing.

Auto launcher

mechanism.auto-launcher

Kicker

Output 2 fires the automatic plunger for a ball resting at shooter-lane switch 47. The working recreation fires at force 8 and then pulls the plunger back when the output de-asserts.

Drives
2Auto launch

Right scoop

mechanism.right-scoop

Kicker

Switch 43 remains active while a ball is held in the right scoop. Public output 59 is auxiliary-board transistor Q41 and ejects toward 185 degrees with nominal force 20, Z 0.4, and force variation 2 in the working table. Its optional erratic-scoop helper briefly captures the entering ball with a script-only magnet before enabling the physical scoop; it is recreation behavior, not another PinMAME output.

Right captive-ball assembly

mechanism.captive-ball

Toy

One nailed ball moves between back switch 8 and front/rest switch 9. The working script uses force transfer 1, minimum impact force 7, and travel/captive parameter 10, then returns the ball toward switch 9.

Mid raising ramp

mechanism.mid-ramp

Motorized

The physical ramp has dual power/hold outputs 3 and 4 and down sensor 49. The working script uses output 4 as the sustained position signal: asserted lowers the modeled ramp from height 60 to 0 and enables its upper collision surface; de-asserted raises it back to 60 and disables that surface. It does not drive switch 49, so physical switch placement comes from the manual and runtime polarity needs to follow the ROM diagnostic if a native geometry model is used.

Upper raising ramp

mechanism.upper-ramp

Motorized

The upper ramp has dual power/hold outputs 5 and 6. The working script uses output 6 as the sustained position signal: asserted lowers the modeled ramp from height 120 to 60, removes the blocking collision surface, and clears switch 50; de-asserted raises it to 120, restores the collision surface, and activates switch 50.

Rotating Mustang car turntable

mechanism.turntable

Rotary

Output 22 runs the turntable continuously. The working script rotates the car by 0.1 degree per timer tick, pulses index opto 52 across seven broad sectors with narrow clear gaps, and activates home opto 53 from about 352 degrees through wraparound before clearing it between 3 and 5 degrees.

Left and right single drop targets

mechanism.single-drop-targets

Drop Target Bank

Right switch 56 and left switch 57 stay active while their targets are down. Outputs 53/54 raise/lower the right target and 55/56 raise/lower the left target; the working script updates each sustained switch state directly when those outputs fire.

Left-ramp diverter

mechanism.ramp-diverter

Diverter

Public output 60 is auxiliary-board transistor Q42. While asserted, the working script enables the diverter and routes a ball hitting its trigger to the alternate ramp path; it disables that route when de-asserted. There is no position sensor.

Spinner

mechanism.spinner

Other

Each spinner rotation pulses switch 48. The manual identifies assembly 180-5010-04.

Identity and variants

This definition covers the shared Premium, Limited Edition, and Boss playfield used by PinMAME mt_*h, mt_*hb, and mt_*hc drivers. Boss changes the presentation package; c changes ROM display colorization. Non-h drivers are the physically different Pro machine and belong to a separate partial definition.

Evidence precedence

The known-working VPW table script Mustang (Stern 2014) v1.27.vbs is authoritative for controller-facing addresses, callbacks, initial runtime state, active polarity, ball routing, and mechanism causality. The official Stern manual is authoritative for physical device inventory, construction, wiring, part numbers, and diagnostic numbering. Pinned PinMAME source is authoritative for SAM controller topology, custom-solenoid routing, display shape, and driver identity. Static analysis of exact Mustang 1.45 LE firmware supports ROM-resident diagnostic semantics but never overrides observed working-script behavior.

Switch topology

Matrix switches 1-64, dedicated D1-D8 at public 65-72, flipper switches D9-D16 at public 81-88, D17-D24 at public -7 through 0, and DIP D25-D32 are all enumerated. Switches 49 and 50 are the mid-ramp-down and upper-ramp-down positions shown by the manual; the working script only actively updates 50. Switches 52 and 53 are the turntable index and home optos. Single drop targets are 56 right and 57 left. The normally-closed EOS contacts are 83 left and 81 right.

Lamp addressing

Physical service-manual diagnostic numbers and PinMAME callback channels are not identical for the 64 Board-5 LED channels. The JSON therefore keeps the physical number as manual.address while binding the public ChangedLamps address. Standard lamps 1-80 are direct. Diagnostic 98 Toolbox is public 103 and diagnostic 99 New Car is public 102. Diagnostic white arrows 109-112 are public 98-101; 113-116 remain public 113-116. RGB channels serialize in G/B/R-style groups: for example physical arrow-1 diagnostics 117/118/119 map to public 119/117/118. Physical action-button white 141 is public 129, and red/green/blue 142/143/144 map to public 144/142/143. Bind the controller to JSON addresses, not the printed diagnostic number.

Coils and auxiliary driver board

Main outputs 1-32 use the SAM I/O Power Driver board. The 12-transistor board 520-5326-02 is split by PinMAME into public addresses 51-56 for physical Q51-Q56 and public 59-64 for physical Q41-Q46. Thus the right scoop printed as manual output 41 is public 59, the diverter 42 is public 60, backbox flashers 43-45 are public 61-63, and unused Q46 is public 64. Public holes 57, 58, 65, and 66 are enumerated as unused so the complete 16-custom-solenoid SAM space remains explicit.

Trough and shooter lane

The manual defines six ball-position sensors 17-22 plus jam opto 23. The working script creates six balls but calls InitSw 0,23,22,21,20,19,18,0, so its proven runtime model occupies 18-23 and omits physical sensor 17. Recreate all seven physical inputs, preserve the script-compatible runtime ordering until a ROM harness proves a better mapping, and keep this discrepancy visible. Output 1 ejects from the right end and the script pulses switch 22; output 2 auto-launches from shooter-lane switch 47.

Raising ramps

The mid ramp uses power output 3, hold output 4, and physical down switch 49. The working script keys motion from hold output 4 but does not update 49: asserted lowers its modeled height from 60 to 0 and enables the upper collision surface, while de-asserted raises it and removes that surface. The upper ramp similarly uses power 5 and hold 6; asserted hold lowers from 120 to 60, removes its blocker, and clears switch 50, while de-asserted raises it, restores the blocker, and activates 50. Follow this working-script polarity even though the printed Upper Ramp Down label makes the active raised state counterintuitive.

Turntable and car

Output 22 runs the Mustang car turntable. The working recreation advances the car by 0.1 degree per timer tick. Index opto 52 is active across seven broad sectors separated by narrow clear windows. Home opto 53 becomes active above roughly 352 degrees through wraparound and clears between approximately 3 and 5 degrees. The car and opposite decorative disc rotate in opposite directions; sample current turntable angle for any attached visuals rather than assuming a fixed home-only animation.

Drop targets and gates

GEARS switches 34-38 latch while down and output 7 resets the entire five-bank. The right single target uses switch 56 with outputs 53 up and 54 down; the left uses switch 57 with outputs 55 up and 56 down. Their switch states are sustained. Public outputs 51 and 52 open the left and right orbit gates while asserted. Public output 60 selects the alternate left-ramp route and has no separate position sensor.

Scoop and captive ball

The right scoop holds a ball on switch 43 and public output 59 ejects it. The working table uses direction 185 degrees, force 20, Z 0.4, and force variance 2. Its optional erratic-scoop helper momentarily applies a script-only magnet to make settling look natural; do not invent a PinMAME magnet output for it. The captive-ball assembly contains one nailed ball, uses back switch 8 and front/rest switch 9, and in the working recreation uses force transfer 1, minimum impact force 7, and captive travel parameter 10.

Standard mechanisms

Four pop bumpers pair switches 30-33 with outputs 9-12. Slingshots pair switches 26/27 with outputs 13/14. Lower flippers use outputs 15/16, buttons 84/82, and normally-closed EOS inputs 83/81. Spinner rotations pulse switch 48. Standups 1-5, 41-42, and 54-55 pulse; lane, orbit, outlane, trough, scoop, ramp, and target-position switches remain active while occupied or positioned as described by the JSON.

Recreation checklist

  • Build every physical input and output listed in the JSON, including explicit unused controller addresses, the seven trough/jam sensors, 12-transistor board, standard matrix lamps, Board-5 LEDs, and native 128x32 DMD.
  • Initialize the five-bank and both single targets raised, the turntable at home, ramps according to the working callback states, and the captive ball at front/rest switch 9.
  • Use public callback bindings from the JSON for node-board LEDs and auxiliary outputs; retain printed numbers as diagnostic aliases only.
  • Preserve separate power and hold windings for both ramps even though the working VPX animation keys primarily from hold outputs.
  • Treat VPX force, angle, travel, and timing values as proven authoring starting points; refine geometry against physical measurements without changing controller causality.

Spatial coordinate model

Every physical playfield input, actuator, lamp, and GI socket has a normalized player-view placement: x=0 left, x=1 right, y=0 rear/backglass end, and y=1 apron. Exact object centers come from the known-working VPW table only after script/manual reconciliation. The seven trough contacts, ramp-position sensors, implicit EOS contacts, white-arrow companions, and 25 playfield GI callouts use explicitly disclosed assembly or drawing projections with practical uncertainty; cabinet, service, speaker-panel, backbox, virtual, unpopulated, and DIP devices are explicitly outside playfield space.

The official lighting drawing proves 32 physical GI emitters across four physical circuits behind one PinMAME transport channel: seven GI-3 and eight non-spot GI-1 wedge lamps, two separately called-out GI-1 spot assemblies, eight GI-0 bayonet lamps, and seven red GI-2 rear bayonet lamps. The seven rear red centers additionally reconcile to exact VPW geometry. The VPW GI_ALL collection contains 52 render lights and broad GI field helpers; those are excluded from the physical count. Public lamp 98 remains manual white-arrow diagnostic 109 even though the table also uses that state as a render trigger for GI_ALL.

The service manual proves trough switches 17-22 plus jam 23, but provides only one assembly callout. Their seven distinct points are calibrated projections within that region and preserve physical ordering. The proven VPW shortcut initializes 18-23 and omits physical 17; this is retained as a runtime discrepancy, not promoted into a false hardware inventory.

Evidence

Every claim above traces to one of these. When they disagree: a known-working VPX script wins on controller addresses and causality, the manual wins on wiring and construction, pinned PinMAME wins on emulator routing and display layout.
