Re: aux analog

on the KOP white joysticks it is connected to a series of resistors that connect to the thumb switch on the handle. connect one to the OI and read the values from the dashboard.

if i had one in front of me i would look it up myself but there in storage right now

Re: aux analog

Traditionally, on analog joysticks the AUX channel was tied to a throddle control, for flight simulators. In some other joysticks, its tied to the hat switch, such as the white(current?)KoP joysticks. If you make a custom controller, linear pots still work on this channel, so your really unlimited in what you can do with it.

Re: aux analog

I'm assuming you are using the white joystick from the KOP, so here it goes. It is kind of hard to describe the positioning of them, but if I remember correctly on the top of the joystick there is a button that acts sort of as another joystick, you can push forward, left, etc. A little down and left from that, there are two buttons, above and below eachother. One of these is aux 1, the other is aux2, but I cant remember which is which. To use these buttons, assuming you have the joystick into port 1, would be p1_sw_aux1 (or aux2). That is all I can remember right now, hope it helps.

Re: aux analog

Everyone so far has been describing the WHEEL input. The AUX analog is a pin on the OI's joystick port that isn't connected to anything in either the old black CH Flightsticks or the new white A/B joysticks. You can attach your own 100K variable resistor to it if you want.
