I have 2 buttons I want to use on an arcade cabinet. One is a power button linked to a PC motherboard that powers the PC on and lights the power button led while it is powered on. Button B will be wired to a pcb to trigger an exit signal. Based on my attached diagram the the power button and led work fine, but I want Button B's led to only come on when the power button is pushed and the PC is powered on.
I know I could do this by wiring both buttons to the 5v LED header on the motherboard, but I'm not sure if there would be adequate power to light both button LED's nice and bright. I'm wondering if there is an easy way to wire them up using a separate power supply for button B?
Thanks for your time and thoughts.
