Joystick Module XY & Z-axis

PS2 game joystick axis sensor module consists of using original quality metal PS2 joystick potentiometer system For the (X, Y) a 2-axis analog output and for (Z) 1 digital output channel button.

Features

• Good quality joystick, long life, stable performance
• Two analog outputs, digital outputs
• X, Y-axis output of two potentiometers can be read through the AD converter twist angle
• Press down on the joystick, touch switches can be deployed all the way, as a digital output, has a pull-up
• Applies to two degrees of freedom, or other remote PTZ control servo proportional control
• Suitable for Arduino platform compatible

Package Content

• 1 x Joystick Module

/*
  Example sketch for the Addicore 2-Axis Joystick with push switch
  Wire the Addicore joystick to your Arduino as detailed below. Then
  Upload this code to your Arduino and open the Serial Monitor on your
  computer to see the states of the joystick axes and push switch.
  (Make sure the baud is set to 9600 in your Serial Monitor)

  Y_Axis = map(Y_Axis, 0, 1023, 1023, 0);      // invert the input from the y axis so that pressing the stick forward gives larger values

  SwitchValue = map(SwitchValue, 0, 1, 1, 0);  // invert the input from the switch to be high when pressed
