What is the Combination of SIBO Joystick JH40 and USB？
JH40-USB joystick integrates up to 3 channels of analog signals and 2 groups of switch signals, and transmits them via USB2.0 protocol, easily to be connected with computers with USB, either as a mouse or as a joystick for corresponding operations.
Dear friend, are you familiar with the SIBO JH40 joystick?
SIBO JH40 joystick is widely used in the industrial fields such as CMM(Coordinate measurement machines?), security monitoring and robot operation because of its compact structure, powerful functions and variable specifications. At that time, we also predicted a timely launch of the USB version of JH40.
Here’s a first look at the features of this revamped version of our popular JH40.
What are the advantages of JH40?
JH40 is a medium-sized joystick from SIBO, which can realize up to 3-dimensional operation, with advantages as follows:
1. Powerful Functions
Mechanically, JH40 can achieve 1-dimensional, 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional operation, and can be matched with different parts to realize I type , "+" type and omni-directional 360° operation;
Electrically, JH40 can achieve wide voltage input and dual signal output.
2. Mechanical Compactness
JH40 can achieve many functions while taking up minimal space. It is suitable for installation on a variety of small and medium-sized control equipment.
3.Various Optional Knobs
JH40 is available with up to 7 types of knobs, satisfying a diverse range of functional requirements and applications.
Customized knobs are also available in addition to the knobs in the JH40+USB catalog.
What are the advantages of USB?
USB (Universal Serial Bus) is the standard interface for the connection and communication between computers and peripheral equipment.
USB has the advantages of fast transmission speed, ease of use, hot plugging support, independent power supply and so on. It can be connected to keyboard, mouse and other peripherals and is also widely adopted in smartphones.
What does the combination of JH40 and USB produce?
JH40-USB joystick integrates up to three channels of analog signals and two groups of switch signals, and transmits them via USB2.0 protocol. Through the USB interface of PC, the joystick can be easily connected with computer or industrial control computer with USB peripherals. With different settings, the joystick can be identified as one of the two standard input devices: either a mouse or a joystick, for corresponding operations.
In addition, JH40+USB also has an extra port, which can connect three extra channels of analog signal inputs and three groups of switch signal inputs. That’s to say, JH40-USB can be combined with other components such as knobs, dial wheels, switches and even another joystick to form a control unit, which can quickly connect and communicate with the external host with its own USB interface.
