XP series

Product catalog summary

Mechanical Specifications:
The joystick features a break out force of 3-5 N and an operating force up to 12 N. It can handle a maximum vertical load of 1000 N and offers a mechanical angle of movement of +/- 17.5° on both X and Y axes. The expected mechanical life is 10 million cycles, and it weighs 500 g.

Electrical Specifications:
The joystick provides an analog output voltage range of ±10% x V to ±50% x V, with the output at center being V/2 ±(5% x gain). It requires a power supply of 5 V ±0.5 V transient free or 3.3 V ±0.1 V, with an output impedance of 10 Ω and a maximum overvoltage of +20 V.

Distinctive Features:
It supports one or two axes, dual and dual inverse analogue and PWM outputs, and is compatible with CAN J1939 & CANopen. The construction is all metal.

Environmental Specifications:
The operating temperature ranges from -30 °C to +70 °C, and storage temperature from -40 °C to +85 °C. It has an IP66 sealing, EMC immunity level of EN61000-4-3, and EMC emissions level of EN61000-6-3:2001, CPSPR 32:2015, Class B 30 MHz-1GHz. ESD compliance is EN61000-4-2.

Materials and Construction:
The shaft is made of stainless steel, the boot of neoprene, the body of zinc, and the handles are either anodised aluminium or reinforced nylon.

Configuration Options:
Various handle and bezel options, multiple gain settings, and custom cable and connector options are available.

Mounting Instructions:
It requires a drop-in mount with M5 bolts, spring washers, and nuts. Panel cut-outs should be free from sharp edges to avoid damage.

CAN Interface Specifications:
The joystick is CAN 2.0B compliant with a baud rate of 250 kbps and a transmission repetition rate of 50ms. It does not include a terminating resistor.

Voltage Output Options:
Single and dual output configurations are available, with various percentage voltage outputs.

Overview:
The document outlines the technical specifications and operational guidelines for the XP series mid-size flexible proportional joystick, which uses non-contacting Hall effect technology.

Configuration:
The joystick can be configured to output 0V when inactive and 5V when operated, though this is not recommended for safety features.

Mechanism:
It features a robust ball-socket pivot mechanism, resistant to vertical impact and capable of withstanding high forces.

Center Detect (CD) and Center Tap Reference (CT):
The joystick can output a center reference voltage at 50% of the supply voltage, useful for checking power supply integrity and eliminating inaccuracies due to supply voltage variations.

Output Impedance:
Voltage outputs are specified across an infinite load with no current flow. A load resistance of less than 10 K Ohms is not recommended.

Springing and Guided Feel:
The joystick is sprung to center with a standard force of 3-5N and features a guided feel, moving more readily towards the poles (N, S, E, W).

Power Supply:
Designed for a regulated 5V ± 0.5V power supply, the outputs are ratiometric, requiring a stable, noise-free supply.

Magnetic Immunity and System Design:
It includes internal magnetic screening and should not be mounted near strong magnetic fields. Proper EMC shielding is recommended.

Gain Options:
The gain determines the voltage output at full deflection, expressed as a percentage of the supplied voltage.

Exterior Components:
APEM offers a range of control components, with basic options included in the standard XP configuration. Custom configurations are available.

Mid-size flexible proportional joystick • non-contacting Hall effect technology MOUNTING When mounting the joystick, consideration should be given to the position so that unnecessary risk of damage is minimised. If the joystick is intended for use in a mobile enclosure then care must be taken to protect the joystick from damage caused by dropping. Basic precautions such as mounting it at the lightest end of the enclosure so it doesn’t hit the ground first or by protecting it with a guard should always be implemented for long term reliability.
