1000 Series
 |
Low Profile Switch Joystick
The
1000 series are robust, switch joysticks. Based on industry
standard V3 and V4 micro-switches, they can switch 6A, 10A or up to
15A. Available with either single or two poles, the 1000 series are
ideal for general machine control type applications where the user
is directing equipment at a predetermined speed. Supplied with
user-changeable limiter plates, the 1000 Series
can be configured to operate in either single or dual axes mode. The
range is designed to mount in either screw or bush style
configurations and is offered as a low cost solution for
non-proportional control. The above panel appearance of the 1000
Series may be customized by selecting either
of the mounting
styles and also choosing from the range of fully interchangeable
handles and accessories.

The 8000 Series is a new range of microswitch
joysticks. Based on the proven mechanics of the
9000 Series, the 8000 Series utilises high
quality microswitches to provide a range of
possible outputs, including the option of
progressive switching on a single axis for dual
speed control.
The microswitches have changeover contacts and
are rated to a maximum of 1 Amp, whilst having
gold plated contacts for reliable switching at
lower current levels.
With six possible switching configurations
offered as standard, in either single or dual
axes formats. The 8000 Series also introduces a
number of new handle options including a larger
push button handle, and a multi-function two
button handle.

3000 Series
 |
Industrial Contactless Joystick
The 3000 Series is the very latest generation in
high precision contactless joysticks. With a
class leading installed depth of<19mm, it is
available in one, two or three axes formats.
Long trouble-free life is assured with the
latest hall effect technology, providing a range
of analogue signals or custom PWM output
options. The 3000 Series also delivers a
radically improved mechanism construction, that
is specifically designed for increased
robustness, strength and performance.

4000 Series
 |
Industrial Potentiometer Joystick
The 4000 Series is a range of highly versatile, single, dual or
tri-axial, proportional joysticks. Unlike many other
potentiometer-based joysticks, the 4000 Series has a metal mechanism
for maximum possible robustness and performance.
over life. The range employs high quality, plastic conductive film
potentiometers as standard, and is designed as a sub-panel
mount unit. Available with many different above panel options,
the 4000 Series is ideally suited to medium duty applications
such as electric vehicle control. This series remains the
preferred choice for applications, which require greater then
five million life cycles and absolute immunity to RFI

|
5000 Series
 |
Light Duty Potentiometer Joystick
The 5000 Series is a family of cost
optimised, potentiometer joysticks. With a low installed depth
these joysticks are ideal for light to medium duty applications such
as CCTV keyboard control.
Configurable in up to three axes for pan, tilt and zoom control,
these joysticks are also offered
with a range of handles, gaiters and bezels to ensure they blend
seamlessly into the control panel.

9000 Series
 |
Contactless Industrial Joystick
The 9000 Series offers a range of
single, dual or tri-axial products, utilizing contactless sensing to
give highly repeatable proportional signals that do not degrade with
use. The 9000 Series builds
on the well-proven traditions of the earlier 7000 Series, yet
introduces significantly improved
mechanics to deliver a shallow installed depth without compromising
functionality.
The 9000 Series can be mounted as a drop-in or sub-panel fixing
product and offers a range
of electronic features including dual decode technology providing
for electronic “at centre” or
“internal fault” detect, which makes it the ideal user interface for
complex and safety critical
applications such as materials handling or power chair control.

Contactless Paddle Joystick
The BF Series Paddle is the very latest
generation in high precision contactless
controls. It combines the features of a
contactless single axis joystick and a switch in
one control.
Long trouble-free life is assured with the
latest hall effect technology, providing a range
of analogue, switched or custom
PWM output options. The all-new design with its
innovative mechanism and ergonomic styling is
specifically designed for
robustness, strength and performance.  |

USB Interface The Apem Components USB
Joystick Interface is designed to connect a
joystick with up-to 3 axes and 8 buttons to a
USB port on a PC or MAC
We have utilised a "JoyWarrior" controller
chip from Code Mercenaries for controlling the
USB interface.
The interface is Fully USB V1.1/2,0 and HID
compliant. It is compliant. Its is compatible
with standard system drivers, so no special
drivers are required
There are 3 analog inputs for X, Y and Z axes
with 10 bit resolution and connectors for up to
8 pushbuttons.
