There are only 4 parts required to build a RING DETECTOR:
1) A phone wire to connect to your phone line.plug-in type is best.
2) A joystick replacement cable.Gemini VG150 or equivalent.
3) A 125 Volt AC relay.Radio Shack # 275-217B or equivalent.
4) A 20 MF or greater Capacitor of at least 70 Volts.
5) OPTIONAL: A plastic box. Do NOT use metal.
THIS IS A ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM OF THE RING DETECTOR.

1) Connect the Green phone wire to pin 7 of the relay coil.
2) Connect the + end of the 20mf Capacitor to pin 8 of the relay coil.
3) Connect the Red Phone wire to the (-) end of the Capacitor.
4) Connect the unit to the phone line and test to see that it responds.
5) REMOVE IT FROM THE PHONE LINE!
6) Connect the Orange Joystick wire to the Common Relay Contact Pin 4.
7) Connect the Black JOystick wire to the N.O. Relay contact Pin 6.
8) With a meter or circuit tester, check that NO CONNECTION BETWEEN THE PHONE WIRES AND THE JOYSTICK WIRES!.Cross check all 4 wires!
9) Package up, to protect the unit and install into Joystick port 2.
10) Plug the unit into the phone jack. You may need a Y-Connector.
11) You are now ready to run your software.
