A 6 pin Mini DIN to 9 pin D cable is available for connection to devices with this
type of switch input.
Devices with 3.5mm jack switch inputs
Unfortunately most communication aid devices have only 2x3.5mm switch
inputs. In this case the Genie joystick can be wired to the device so that a
forward deflection of the joystick activates the switch 1 input of the external
device (normally the “select”) and a backwards deflection of the joystick
activates the switch 2 input of the external device (normally the “advance” or
“step”).
A 6 pin Mini DIN to 2x3.5mm jack plug cable is available for connection to such
devices.
The GEWA PROG environmental control interface
The switch input of the GEWA PROG III is also a 6 pin Mini DIN connector
whose pin-out matches that of the Genie joystick. To operate the PROG from
the joystick it is necessary to put the PROG in joystick input mode. You can do
this by pressing “
P+5”
, followed by “
3”
on the PROG. Consult the PROG
manual for further details.
A pin-to-pin Mini DIN cable is available for connection to this device
Interfacing to GEWA Progress ECU
.
A special interface cable is required whose pin-out is described below and the
Genie joystick parameter “External Device” must be set to “3”. See Section 2
Chapter 4 for details on adjusting Genie joystick parameters. The Progress
should be set for 2 switch manual row/column scanning. When external access
is selected, downward deflections of the joystick select the row. Right hand
deflections select the cell within that row. And a final downward deflection
activates the chosen cell. It is important to carry out the sequence of deflections
as described otherwise the Progress may get out of step with the Genie. If this
happens simply exit external access mode and re-enter it.
