7.6.4 Calibrating the Joystick
Calibration of the individual joystick axes is recommended after connecting a joystick to the C-
863.12 for the first time.
Calibration involves the following steps:
▪ If corresponding operating elements are on the joystick: Adjusting the joystick axes
mechanically.
▪ Calibrating the joystick axes in PIMikroMove
The lookup table type to be used is selected or the lookup table is filled with custom values
when calibrating the joystick in PIMikroMove. To do this, a positioner does not need to be
connected to the C-863.12.
Calibration is necessary for proper joystick control in the following cases:
▪ After activating joystick control, the positioner moves even though you are not moving
the joystick.
▪ The response behavior of the joystick does not correspond to your requirements.
▪ You are using the Z axis of a C-819.30 joystick.
