#AXIS T8311 JOYSTICK RECOGNIZED BUT NO MOTION SERIAL#
Import rial.* //import the Serial library Its VCC pin is connected to the 5V terminal of the Arduino and its GND pin is connected to the GND terminal of the Arduino. Other than this, the joystick just simply needs power. To read whether the joystick knob has been pressed down, we connect the SW pin of the joystick to digital pin D8 of the Arduino. For our Arduino board, we connect VRx to analog pin A0 of the Arduino and VRy to analog pin A1 of the Arduino. Now that we know everything about the module it is time to put them to use!Īs we know, in order to determine the X and Y coordinates of the joystick, we need to connect both analog outputs from the joystick to analog pins on the Arduino. Wiring – Connecting Thumb Joystick Module to Arduino UNO When the button is pushed, it will connect to GND, giving output LOW. It’s normally open, meaning the digital readout from the SW pin will be HIGH.
how far up and down the joystick is pushed. VRy gives readout of the joystick in the vertical direction (Y-coordinate) i.e. how far left and right the joystick is pushed. VRx gives readout of the joystick in the horizontal direction (X-coordinate) i.e. You can connect it to 5V output from your Arduino. GND is the Ground Pin which we connect the GND pin on the Arduino. The graphic below shows the X and Y directions and also gives an indication of how the outputs will respond when the joystick is pushed in various directions. When the joystick stays in its center position the value is around 512. So, if the stick is moved on X axis from one end to the other, the X values will change from 0 to 1023 and similar thing happens when moved along the Y axis. This change can be read by an Arduino analog pin using ADC.Īs the Arduino board has an ADC resolution of 10 bits, the values on each analog channel (axis) can vary from 0 to 1023. In order to read the joystick’s physical position, we need to measure the change in resistance of a potentiometer. In other words, if you push the stick all the way forward, it will turn the potentiometer contact arm to one end of the track, and if you pull it back toward you, it will turn the contact arm the other way. Moving the slotted shafts rotates the contact arm of the potentiometer. A potentiometer is connected to each joystick shaft that interprets the position of the rod as analog readings.
