USB

Featuring USB 1.1 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 1.1 HID compliant “game controller” device

• Easy to install and operate

• Functions determined by controlled application

SUPPLIED WIRING

USB: USB Male Type A Connector with 72” overmolded cable

CURSOR EMULATION

The Cursor Emulation option converts multi-axis joystick output into a mouse, trackball, or cursor control device. The

joystick’s internal microprocessor converts absolute axis position into a cursor velocity, which is translated as a

relative trackball or mouse position.

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 shipboard

and military applications.

FEATURES

• HID compliant “pointing device”

• Plug-and-play with USB option
