USB
USB
Featuring USB 2.0 HID compliant interface, APEM’s USB joysticks are recognized as standard HID “game
controller” devices. Adhering to the HID specification, APEM’s USB joysticks are plug-and-play with most
versions of Windows. Joystick button and axis assignments are dependent upon the controlled application.
FEATURES
• USB 2.0 HID compliant “game controller” device
• Easy to install and operate
• Functions determined by controlled application
• Standard Male Type A Connector
CURSOR EMULATION
The Cursor Emulation option converts a multi-axis joystick into a mouse, trackball, or cursor control device.
APPLICATIONS
The Cursor Emulation option is ideal for vehicle applications subjected to dirt and high vibration which makes
operating a traditional cursor control device difficult. The Cursor Emulation option is widely used in marine and
military applications.
FEATURES
• HID compliant “pointing device”
• Plug-and-play with USB option
• Ideal for marine GPS and navigation
TERMINATION OPTIONS
0-U USB Male Type A to mini B
Cable length is 6’ from side of joystick to
USB connector
2-U USB Male Type A to vertical cable termination
Cable length is 7’ from side of joystick to
USB connector
ADDITIONAL OUTPUT OPTIONS
VOLTAGE REGULATOR
The Voltage Regulator option may be used when the operating supply voltage is 11V to 35V..
