Our current OI includes 3 joysticks. We have a need to use Port 4 to wire in some toggles switches that are not on the current joysticks. I can obviously figure out how to wire up to 4 switches with the base port. Our design requires almost double that. What is the best way to wire a big switch panel to a joystick port.

The only thought I came up with was running each switch through a different value resistor and using an axis. My problem I run in to is sensing multiple switches at a time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
