Hello
I am a 13 years old and new to the EZ-B concept. Along with other things, I need to ask a few questions relating to joystick connectivity.
I was ready to buy a wireless controller for the EZ-B and then realised that I could use one of my wireless PS3 remotes. I plugged it it using the charger cord and started up the EZ Builder. When opening the joystick panel it registered the PS3 remote. I don't know what to do from here on and am unable to make it register me pressing the buttons. I will be really grateful if anyone knows how to make it work.
Thanks

To get it to register movement, I believe all you need to do is place a movement window that best suits your robots method of movement. Ex: H-Bridge for DC motors, or Modified Servo.
Hope this helps!

When you are in the Config screen for the joystick control, any buttons you press will be highlighted. I know the PS3 doesn't have numbers (it has symbols if i recall from my gaming friends). They are technically still numbered internally, you just see symbols on the buttons. When you press the button, the appropiate number will highlight.
You'll need a Movement Panel (either servo, hbridge, or roomba) that is controlled by the direction pad. Or you can specify servos to be controlled by the analog joystick.
There are no dumb questions dude
Good Luck hope this helps
so if i connect the ps3 controller to the pc, i cant use the joysticks?
boooooo
It is possible to use a PS3 joystick with the EZ-B. It is simply rather difficult. You must first install a PS3 driver and then connect the joystick to the computer using the charger cord. But even if you are able to make it work there are still a number of difficulties. I would advise just buying a wireless joystick from E-Bay. I bought a Rapoo joystick, with which I have had no difficulties
