Setup

Joystick screen

The Joystick screen contains fields calibrating and

configuring overall joystick motion.

Enabling joystick motion

Check an axis Enable box to enable joystick motion, or

clear the box to disable joy-

stick motion on that axis.

Specifying a joystick deadband

A deadband area of joystick inactivity is specified around the zero position of each axis to eliminate er-

roneous axis motion due to joystick vibration or noise. The default values are expressed as percentages of

total motion and will satisfy the requirements of most environments, however these values can be increased

or decreased by selecting the deadband field and entering the desired

value.

Specifying axis direction

The direction of motion controlled by the joystick on an axis is reversed to accommodate different joystick

and system hardware by checking the Reversed axis box.

Specifying normal and fine axis velocity

The normal and fine axis velocities controlled by the joystick are specified by selecting a Normal or Fine

velocity field and entering the desired percentage of maximum axis velocity.
