Can you be more specific on what you're asking? :)

What do the 'min' and 'max' values in the joystick control refer to? Any thoughts on how to set them to get the joystick to do what I describe doing above with buttons 2 and 4?

Can you screenshot what options you are referring too?

There are normally blue question marks everywhere to hover your cursor over. Perhaps I'm missing one of those on something important in the joystick control that no one has noticed yet.

I have buttons 2 and 4 currently configured as shown in the screencap and I would love to be able to have joystick 2 do the same job but not sure what the servo values mean or if that's possible without writing custom script.

Thanks

These are servo values where min=1 and max=180. You can look at it as degrees of servo movement... This is used when the joystick is controlling regular servos....

Hi. Don't want to highjack this thread, but I have a question relating to joystick 2. Is there a way of changing the servo speed so when joystick 2 is fully pressed in any direction, the servos they are controlling don't turn at maximum speed?

I know that joystick 2 has variable speed positions (the harder you press, the faster the servos spin) but I want to limit the maximum speed, like you would do with the buttons setup that change speeds using servospeed() script, as joystick 2 doesn't seem to have the scripting option (not that I have seen anyway).

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, as always. :)

Steve.

@Steve G...If you are talking about 360 deg servos then you would control speed via the modified servo movement panel....

@Richard. Sorry, I should have said but forgot to mention it sleep. No, I meant 180 deg servos.

Try setting servo speed first in a script...

servo(D0,90)
servo(D1,90)
servoSpeed(D0,3) #speed value 0 - 10
servoSpeed(D1,3) #speed value 0 - 10
#etc...

@Richard.

Thanks for that. I'll give it a try tomorrow morning. One question, may be a silly one, where abouts do I enter the servo speed script you supplied above, as I cannot see how or where to enter script in the joystick 2 setup screen when I click the gear icon?

@Steve G... Make a script called init... Make a point to run it at start up of your program... Or, what I do is use the script behind the connection control so it runs automatically when the ezb connects to ARC..

In this script you can set servo position, speed and set variables to default values as well.... etc

For the joystick script... Look at post# 5, second picture... This is where you would enter your button press script or scripts...

Thanks @Richard. But the picture in post #5 is not relivent to what I'm asking as this is for scripting buttons, and not scripting joystick 2 (unless I'm misunderstanding something).

@Steve G... see your other post

Sorry, I think I might be confusing the issue with the 2 posts. confused. To recap, Hear I want to set a max speed on servos controlled by joystick 2.

There is nothing on this page to enter scrips that I can see, only adjust "x" and "y" values.

The other post is regarding joystick buttons, not joystick 2.

Yeah, ok.... you can't adjust speed there in the joystick control... You need to do that in a generic script that you run once (if you don't want to change the speed after that again)...

Ok, thanks Richard. That sounds like what I'm after then, as I won't want to change the speed after the initial change, as I want to stay away from the maximum servo speed as it is to quick for what I need it for. So you know what I'm going to ask next, how and where do I do this?

@steve G see your other post....

Sorry for letting this go so long.

Not really resolved just haven't had time to try a couple thoughts based on this discussion.

Just wanted Joystick 2 to cause the same action I currently get with buttons 2 set to down = PWM(D1, 11) up = PWM(D1, 0) and button 4 set to down = PWM(D1, 4) up = PWM(D1, 0)
