Code G designates joystick microswitch options.
Optional microswitch outputs can replace the low current directional potentiometer switches on the
potentiometer tracks. Microswitch outputs are on the 16 pin connector (potentiometer option). There are
two switches per axis and the microswitches are configured as normally open, with the handle centered.
The microswitch joystick shaft direction indication feature is not available with the dual potentiometer
sensing option.
Optional microswitches are also available with the Hall effect sensing option. Microswitch outputs, in this
case, are on the 8 pin connector.
Optional microswitches are only available on analog output joysticks with the spring-return-to-center
mechanical operation.
Optional microswitches are not available on BMM, CAN, CPL, or PWM output joysticks.
