Single axis joystick with power outputs (PWM) for marine use.

MAP3 (version for marine use of MAP2) is a single axis electronic joystick with PWM outputs, capable of directly controlling a couple of PWM solenoid valves.

Joystick command is based on the measurement of magnetic field of a permanent magnet through redundant Hall effect probes, not subject to wear and tear.

Properties:

- one proportional section (A+B) direct control (2 PWM outputs max 2.5A);

- adjustable minimum/maximum current for each directions (A+B);

- adjustable PWM frequency from 50 to 300 Hz;

- adjustable rise/fall timeramp up to 25 seconds (step 0.1s);

- input for speed reduction or deadman feature or "fault" output (default);

- frictioned lever version available;

- output curve shape: linear or parabolic (selectable);

- DV digital output is activate when PWM output is on;

- all working parameters are adjustable through a serial port and the

 Windows® SepSim program using a special serial port adapter (AISR)

The version with voltage signal output is also available (MAS3).

Technical specifications: 

MAP3 joystick is designed to directly control two proportional solenoid valves (one section of an electrically controlled hydraulic distributor). The PWM command of the coils is feedback controlled, in order to guarantee the current stability indipendently to external factors (power supply voltage, coil temperature, ...).

The frequency of the PWM outputs is adjustable from 50 Hz to 300 Hz (preset to 100 Hz).

The electronic card is protected against short-circuits of the load.

The MAP3 joystick is preset for a generic 24 V proportional valve, with 250 mA minimum current and 850 mA maximum current. Fall and rise timeramps are preset to zero.

It can be necessary to modify the original preset values, in order to achieve better performances of the joystick in various applications (with different supply voltages or with different kind of proportional solenoid valves).

Setting can be changed using a PC with the SepSim Windows® program and a special serial port adapter with M8 connector (code: PISPR).
