Technical Details
Mechanical
Internal mechanical parts are anodized aluminum and stainless steel.
Electrical
The force applied to the joystick is measured by silicon strain gauges, which provide output voltage through a signal conditioning amplifier. The centering repeatability error is less than 0.5%. Switches provide a closed contact to a common input.
Mounting & Connectors
The joystick is mounted with four 1/4” bolts on a 4.45” bolt circle in a 3.8” cutout. Alternative mounting with 5mm bolts on a 122 mm bolt circle is available. Under panel depth requirement is 2.5”, including the connector. The connector is either a DB-15 or a high density DB-26, which carries power to the stick and the output signals.
Reliability
With no moving parts the life of the mechanical system has no limit. The switches used are rated for 1,000,000 cycles.
Warranty
The JFf joysticks carry a 2 year warranty from the date of installation in customer equipment.
