JS6000 Joystick Base

Mobile Machine Management Features

The JS6000 joystick base is an
element of the flexible, powerful, • Hall effect or long-life potentiometer position sensing
expandable, and affordable
joystick family of mobile machine • Redundant sensors
management products. The JS6000
has been specially developed • Single (Y axis) or dual axis
to meet the harsh operating
requirements of today’s mobile • Optional mechanical neutral switches
machine market. Combine
the JS6000 joystick base with • Two centering spring forces
a standard or custom grip to
configure a complete joystick • Three friction-hold forces
solution.
• Four output options:
Versatile Design –– Analog
The JS6000 joystick base is –– CAN 2.0 B, J1939 protocol
available with either contactless –– CANopen protocol
Hall effect sensors or long-life –– High current PWM
potentiometer sensors to meet the
specific requirements of your most • Operating life:
demanding applications. –– Potentiometer: > 7.5 million cycles
–– Hall effect: > 15 million cycles
Reliable Performance
Hall effect sensor or potentiometer • Environmental sealing – grip dependent
sensor options are both offered
with single or dual sensors on • Multiple grip options:
each axis for redundancy in safety –– HKN – plain knob
critical systems. Additional security –– MG – with operator trigger and hand rest
can be added with optional –– A – configurable ergonomic
mechanical neutral switches and –– No grip
an operator presence trigger
switch. See Sauer-Danfoss publication JS6000 Joystick Grips Technical
