How to Use

Connect the joystick module to your Arduino board using the 2.54mm pin header. This analog joystick module outputs two analog signals for the X and Y axes. The joystick sensor arduino setup can read these signals using the Arduino's analog inputs. Utilize the select button by reading its digital signal, integrating these inputs into your project for custom analog and digital control solutions. Follow these steps:

1. Connect the module to a microcontroller, such as an Arduino, using the provided pins. Connect VCC to a 5V source, GND to ground, and VRx, VRy to analog input pins on the microcontroller.
2. Read the analog values from VRx and VRy to determine the joystick's position typically ranging from 0 to 1023 depending on the joystick's position.
3. Monitor the SW pin for digital input to detect button presses enhancing your joystick control arduino accuracy.
4. Use the joystick readings to control movement or input actions in your project, integrating it with motors, displays, or other peripherals as needed.
