[[File:RedJoystick.jpg|thumb|200px|The Red Joystick]]
There are two types of joystick available for our social sciences researchers:
*[[#Red Joystick|TSG Red Joystick]], a custom built, unimaginatively named, single-axis joystick with a bright red base.
*[[#Logitech Attack 3|Logitech Attack 3]], a commercial multi-axis joystick controller.
== Red Joystick ==
=== Settings ===
=== Installation ===
The Red Joystick is a [[wikipedia:plug and play|plug and play]] USB device.
=== Configuration ===
When connected to a PC via USB, the Red Joystick will emulate a serial port. The following COM port settings should be used:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|}
|}
=== Python ===
===Presentation===
'''Example PCL code you can program a handle to send a marker:'''
active_buttons = 0;
begin;
picture {
text { caption = " "; font_size = 16; } t_Text1; x = 0; y = 0;
} P_Text;
begin_pcl;
joystick stick = response_manager.get_joystick( 1 );
loop int i = 1
until false
begin
stick.poll( );
t_Text1.set_caption("coordinates: " + string(stick.x()) + ":" + string(stick.y()), true);
P_Text.present();
