MicroJoystick
Integration Guide
The hole/indentation should be centered on the MicroJoystick’s stick. Alternatively, a spacer can
be designed with a hole/indentation and mounted in-between the MicroJoystick and the mounting
surface. For more information on this mounting method, please refer to the Figure 4, “Using
Captuator for Registration with Opened Support Plate.”
To install the MicroJoystick, inspect the mounting surface, MicroJoystick and optional spacer to
ensure that they are clean and free of contaminants (e.g., dirt, dust, hair, etc.). Then place the
optional spacer on the mounting surface, and place the MicroJoystick on the mounting
surface/spacer and install the screws. Use care to torque the screws evenly and ensure that they
only thread into one surface (i.e., either the MicroJoystick’s base or the mounting surface,
depending on whether installing the screws from the bottom or top).
Note: When mounting the MicroJoystick to a flat surface, please carefully review the ESD
concerns described in section 5.2.
