Device Here you can see the logical location of the device. When you have more than one joystick device, you can also select which device to configure. Position The plotted location of the X and Y axes of the joystick. Enable Show trace to plot the path of the joystick from one point to another. When the joystick cannot reach every point on this graph, or does not center correctly, you need to calibrate your device. Buttons A place to observe the pressed state of buttons on your joystick and when the buttons are mapped correctly. When a joystick button is pressed, PRESSED will appear next to the logical number (as the computer sees it) of the button which was pressed. Axes This displays the numerical values of the axis positions. 0 is centered and the maximum and minimum values depend on the joystick and the particular axis. Calibrate Selecting the Calibrate button will open a dialog to calibrate every axis on your joystick. Each axis will have to be moved to the minimum position, then the center, and finally the maximum position. A meter in the bottom left corner of the dialog will help determine which way increases and which way decreases the values.
