I'm looking at some bits and pieces for some experimentation. I'm trying to work out what I need to wire up an analog joystick with pots (~5k) to emulate a mouse movement or X/Y axis for Mame control. I'm not very good at this electronics stuff, so if you keep it very basic I'd appreciate it. I do own an optipac if that's usable for this situation. Here's the pins on the stick pots 1) x-axis output 2) +5V 3) y-axis output 4) gnd Thanks for any help |

Joystick to emulate a mouse?... Just plug it in to the USB port. |

I believe you would need an A-PAC (or similar device), rather than an Opti-PAC. |
