First generation Hall effect joysticks

The HFX Series I Joystick is designed for precision finger operated applications requiring proportional control

and long trouble-free life. Featuring non-contacting Hall effect technology for three million lifecycle

performance, the HFX Series I may be specified as a one, two, or three axes joystick. Featuring APEM

core Hall effect technology and patented joystick mechanism, the HFX Series I has been field tested and

proven for more than a dozen years. The HFX Series I joystick compact size, low operational force and high

reliability make it ideally suited for clean environment applications including coordinate measuring

machines, CCTV equipment and broadcast camera control.

First generation Hall effect joysticks ADDITIONAL OUTPUT OPTIONS DUAL DECODE Dual Decode utilizes a microprocessor to monitor two linear opposite-ramp signals for each joystick axis and provides one proportional (0.5VDC 4.5VDC) and one logical output accordingly. The dual inversed signals are continuously monitored and a logical signal of 0VDC is provided for over-range (>4.5VDC), under-range (<0.5VDC) and signal tracking (sum of both signals equals 4.5V +/-10%) error. A logical signal of 5.

First generation Hall effect joysticks ADDITIONAL OUTPUT OPTIONS VOLTAGE REGULATOR The Voltage Regulator is a multi-wired analog option used to mate to a variety of industrial control voltages. The Voltage Regulator may be used when the supply or output voltage is greater than 5V or when bipolar output is required.
