Joystick Routines for Motor Speed and Position Control

Learn to implement joystick control for Galil motion control systems using analog input monitoring. This application note covers speed control, X-Y jog control, deadband implementation, nonlinear velocity functions, and position control routines. Examples demonstrate how to read analog voltages from joysticks and convert them to proportional motor speeds or positions, including practical considerations like deadband zones and programmable control ratios.
