badbrad Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I got this NIB the other day and was just wondering what all the little adjustment knobs were for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I have that same joystick but for the PC, great analog stick. Wish I had it for Atari, altough I do play 5200 games with it through an adapter On my stick, those small side knobs allow you to specify each buttons' function. Like you can switch button 1 and button 2 assignments. The bigger knobs on the front and back are to set the degree of self-centering, and to adjust the analog reading.

oesii Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 here's a pic of the one I have, again, high quality stick. Where did you pick yours up from? If it was an online dealer I would love to see if they had any more. Thanks. edit: Hey I just noticed that it tells you what those knobs are for right on the box: Adjustable sensitivity, adjustable spring self-centering, push button control selectors!

Are you using a self made adaptor? or a bought one? If you made it yourself(I've seen instructions on the net) maybe you could help me out when I try to make one. The instructions looked a little too confusing for me(I have basic soldering skills, that's just about it ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
