We really like it. You plug it right into an analog input on the RoboRio and just read the input voltage. The resistor network (similar to ILAMtitan's second photo) is internal, and there's a nice blue LED for visual feedback too. Plus, it's cheap! |
We ended up buying this exact one, but the problem is that there only seems to be a handful of values the NI Joystick Explorer sees which are .094, .1, .11, and .12. This is a problem because we really want to use all 12 parts of the switch. We are using the 3.3V rail. Is there something extra you have to do in order to make it so it reports very precise voltages? Thanks!
