Gets/sets the minimum joystick input [value] in mV for [axis].


The JMIN[axis] command can be used to define the minimum analog input value for the specified axis. This parameter has units of millivolts (mV) and a range of 0 to 3300. This value defines the analog input value in which the maximum joystick speed occurs in the negative direction. This command is only available in ASCII mode.

Example 

Read        

JMINX                * Returns the value of the minimum voltage on the X-axis analog terminal.

Write        

JMINY=5         * Sets the minimum voltage value to 5 mV for the Y-axis analog terminal.


Notes

  • The ASCII command JTOL[axis] can be used to define the zero-tolerance (or dead) zone around the MID value. No movement will occur while the analog input value is within the zero-tolerance zone. This parameter has units of millivolts (mV) and a range of 0 to 3300. The zero-tolerance parameter will be on the positive and negative side of the MID point to define to the zero-tolerance zone. See the figure below for details.

  • Example The zero-tolerance zone at JMAX = 3,250 mV, JMIN = 10 mV, JTOL = 50 mV is
  • 1580 mV ~ 1680 mV since ((3,250 – 10) ÷ 2) +10 = 1,630 mV
  • 1,630 mV ±50 mV
