XK-12+Joystick Specifications
for XK-0983-UAJ12-R and XK-0983-UAJ12-B
The X-keys XK-12+Joystick controller features 12 keys with independent backlighting plus a precision three axis
joystick. A pair of snap in feet give the X-keys a slight angle on the desktop.
MacroWorks 3 software for Windows and ControllerMate software for Mac OS X combine ease of programming
with a wide and flexible range of options. P.I. Engineering’s Pi3 firmware supports direct communication for the
software developer and our new reflector feature sends messages to even the most reluctant software.
The joystick defaults to USB standard 3 axis joystick but may be configured as an independent X, Y, Z position
controller. Our SDK shows the developer how to access data reports for the position of the joystick as well as
the state of each key.
