How do I use an I-PAC board?

Booth Junkie works with an I-PAC controller from Ultimarc, letting a workflow step switch an external device on or off – commonly used to control lighting in a mirror-style booth.

Setting it up

Connect the I-PAC to your machine over USB before launching Booth Junkie.

In the Workflows tab, open the workflow you want to use the I-PAC with (Singleshot, Multishot, or Strip Print), and decide which step should trigger it.

On that step, select Function, then iPac, then choose either Port 0 On or Port 0 Off. Port 0 is currently the only port available.

A tip for mirror booths

If you’re using the I-PAC to control an LED ring lighting the guest’s face for the camera, turn the LED off just before triggering the photo rather than leaving it on – otherwise it can reflect off the inside of the mirror glass and show up in the shot.
