TS Series Thumbstick Control
Proportional Miniature Thumb Controls, Non-Contacting Hall Effect Technology, Available with Backlight Option.
The TS Series Thumbstick is a proportional two-axis joystick in a miniature package.
Featuring non-contacting Hall effect technology for long life performance, the TS Series Thumbstick is available with multiple linear output options including single and dual (redundant) outputs. It is similar in size and operation to “gamepad” controls but in a rugged industrial package.
Typical applications include pendant and remote controls as well as a joystick handle and armrest integration.
Distinctive Features:
- One or two-axis
- Analog, PWM or USB outputs
- IP67 above panel sealing mounting
- Rear or drop-in mounting
- Pushbutton option
- Now available with LED backlighting
