Which Joystick Microswitch = Up, Down, Left, Right?
(1/3) > >>

Hi Guys,

Dumb question, but how do I know which microswitch to wire to Up, Down, Left Right on my MiniPac?

My ServoStiks have 4 microswitches Top Left, Bottom Left, Top Right, Bottom Right.

Which gets wired up... to down... to left... to right... on the MiniPac?

If someone could fill in the blanks below, I'd really appreciate it!

TOP LEFT MICROSWITCH =
BOTTOM LEFT MICROSWITCH =
TOP RIGHT MICROSWITCH =
BOTTOM RIGHT MICROSWITCH =

Thanks so much. I'm pretty confused here

look at where the stick his the legs:



looks like the top left would be down, bottom right would be up , top right would be left, and bottom left would be right.   Almost all sticks have very similar switch layouts.

So the Microswitch terminals point in the correct direction, yes?

That makes sense. Thanks!

dumb question, dumb answer.

Move the joystick, and see what switch it activated.

Once you do one, it'll make perfect sense.

no, pushing the joystick up will hit the bottom right switch, which points to the right.

Wire it up, start a game, like TMNT and just see where the guy moves when you hit the controller like sarver said.
