Analog Joystick with Two VXMs
ThejoystickprovidesanalogoutputsfortwoVXMcontrols. AconnectiontoeachVXMis
accomplishedwithaspecialVelmex “Y”cable.
TheanalogjoystickhasabuttonswitchconnectedtoInput2fortogglingbetweenthe
primaryandsecondarysettablejogspeeds.
ThereisalsoasecondbuttonswitchconnectedtoInput3foralternatingbetweenmotors
1,3and2,4.
Thedefaultprimaryandsecondaryspeedsarebydefaultbothsetto0(disabled
joystick.)
NOTE: Itispossibletodisable/removethebuttonswitch(es)ifInput2andInput3are
neededforanotherfunction. Todisable/removethebutton(s),withthebuttonintheout
position,useplierstopullthebuttoncapofftheswitchactuator.Theswitchactuator
shouldnowbebelowthesurfaceenoughtopreventunintendedinput. Analternate
methodtodisablethebuttonswitchesisbyclippingoffpin6andpin7onthecables
connectors.
ThejoystickwillnotoperateVXM2ifthe“Y”cableisnotconnectedtoVXM1orif
VXM1isoff.Thisisbecausethecommon+5Vreferencevoltageforthejoystick
comesfromVXM1(pin2.)
