These controls provide a multi-position joystick switch ideal for medium accuracy manual positioning tasks in a two axis system. A small motion and quick, positive actuation make many of these switch models suitable for keyboard mounting.		Quick Motion/ Positive Actuation Available with Pulse Rate Output and TTL Discrete Level Switching Eight Separate Directions Fast/Slow Selection Feature

		Model 570 Series Miniature Multi-Position Joysticks A positive action, center off switch. Moving the handle in any X or Y direction will actuate a single switch. Moving the handle 45 degrees will actuate two switches giving eight separate directions. Depressing the bar switch provides a means of a fast/slow selection.

		Model 571 Series Joystick Switches with TTL Pulse Output The primary action of the joystick produces a "slow" pulse rate of 20 PPS (pulses per second). When the bar switch is pressed simultaneous to a joystick direction pressure a "fast" output rate of 200 PPS is produced.

		Model 572 Series Joystick Switches No bounce, TTL level similar in appearance to Model 571. It provides switching signals directly from a 7400 logic device.

		Model 574 Series Joystick Switches with Lock This rugged controller can be actuated in eight separate directions. The handle normally returns to center off position, but when desired, a turn of the knurled tip will lock the handle in any position. Switches are SPST-NO, snap action. Rating: 5 amp at 28 VDC Ind.

		Model 575 Series with Multi-Position Toggle Switches This model is a positive action, center off switch that can be actuated in any of eight different positions. In addition there is a thumb operated three position toggle switch mounted at the end of the handle. Switches conform to MIL-S-8834 and MIL-S-8805. Handle is 4.25 inches long. Base is 3.0 inches in diameter.
