Title: PoKeys and KeyGrabber
Post by: thedoctor on August 18, 2009, 05:46:35 AM
I would have thought that the PoKey55 would have played well with KeyGrabber to make analog inputs and joysticks very easy for those of us who are
familiar with KeyGrabber. However, I cannot get the config screens in keygrabber to save. If I go through the config and start Mach from the KeyGrabber screen it works quite well. Also the joystick config screen is very jittery/unstable. It takes patience to get all the boxes filled in without errors. It likes to do an auto-select of some kind and jump the info entered in a right hand column to the leftmost column. It helps if I jump all the pots to ground. I tried doing the config with the PoKey unplugged but the PoJoystick config tab doesn't show up. Maybe someone else has gotten this to work.

Hi!

PoKeys joystick and keyboard emulations are produced strictly under specifications, so if there is a problem it is on the keygrabber side.

For jiterry analog inputs: almost every analog inputs is jiterry when it is floating. Connect it to the voltage between 0 and 3.3V. After that it should be stable.
