The panel does not allow you
to enter a device number
greater than the DEVICE
USED without first displaying
a decision box. This box asks
you to decide whether you
accept the new selection or
default to the previous value.
Note
Joysticks actually use two
level numbers. The first is for
the X-axis and the second is
for the Y-axis. You only need
to specify the first level.
