Digital Joystick Interface

Archiver

Has anyone had any luck integrating a digital joystick with a BS2? I
have worked with the older style potentiometer based analog ones, but
I am interested in the newer digital joysticks or gamepads. Thanks
for any help.

This may be similar to the project I am working on. I am using four contacts
(momentary switches) to simulate a computer mouse. Give me some more info on
the "digital joystick" and I will see if what I have done is applicable!

There is a very similar topic inside Jan 2000 Vol.21 Nuts&Volts. The title
of the article is "Building a Better Mouse Trap - Part1". However, those are
for SX chips. Feb and March 2000 have some further example of interfacing a
mouse / keyboard to BS. Still waiting for the Feb and March issues, though.

Check it out here ... http://www.ctips.com/game.html
it is under digital joystick

actually, the main problem I am having right now, is that I have the
gamepad hooked up to a 5V supply without the PC and I was trying to
measure the output signals, and I don't seem to be getting anything
out.
