Hall effect sensing technology. The CAN+ version of the JS6000 base allows the value and state of up to eleven digital or seven digital and four analog inputs from external-to-the-joystick sources to be broadcast along with joystick Controller Area network (CAN) messages.
Product configuration model code Use the JS6000 product configuration model code to specify particular features when ordering a JS6000 joystick. The model code begins with the product family name: JS6000. Fill in the remaining fields to configure the product with the desired features.

2.2 to 3.6 Warning Potential uncommanded machine movement. When a JS6000 joystick with the 25% to 75% potentiometer output option (designated Q or T) is used to directly drive a PVG valve, if the power or ground side of the joystick is lost, there is a risk of the valve going full on in one direction or the other. To avoid the possibility of unintended machine motion, the PVG valve must have Active Fault Monitoring.
One version of the JS6000 PWM joystick is available. PWM (configuration model code PWM) The PWM version of JS6000 joystick has two bi-directional PWM channels and six digital ouputs. The PWM option joystick base has an 18 pin DEUTSCH connector.
J S 6 0 0 0 H M M Code E designates hardware configuration. JS6000 joysticks have a square gate pattern as the standard configuration. This is designated as S in the configuration code and includes a standard label. Gate selection...
Code F designates joystick mechanical options. JS6000 joysticks are available with a friction-hold option. With this option, the joystick handle position will remain in a position set by the operator and will not automatically return to center. This option is only available in a single (Y) axis configuration.

Button 11 Warning Potential uncommanded machine movement. JS6000 CAN+ Joysticks fitted with an operator present switch have an internal connection between the operator present switch and pin 6. The operator present switch status is broadcast in BJM1 and BJM3. Unintended machine motion may result if an external DIN is applied to pin 6 with a joystick that has a grip with operator present switch.
SAE J1939 basic joystick message The JS6000 joystick uses the SAE J1939 basic joystick message to transfer information about the measured status of the X and Y axes of a joystick, the state of switches on the joystick grip, and the state of external-to-the-joystick digital inputs.

Warning Potential uncommanded machine movement. Per the SAE J1939-71 standard, if the JS6000 joystick internal diagnostics detect a shaft position measurement error, the joystick output will be set to a value of 1022 counts regardless of shaft position. Application software should be written to recognize this error condition to avoid the possibility of unintended machine motion.
Not available (no button installed) SAE J1939 extended joystick message The JS6000 joystick uses the SAE J1939 extended joystick message to transfer information about the measured status of up to 3 additional proportional input functions on the joystick grip, and external-to-...

(static). However, JS6000 joysticks are compliant with SAE J1939 address claiming protocol (in the unlikely event another node on the SAE J1939 bus claims an identical source address to the JS6000, the JS6000 may cease communication on the bus, depending on the message priority of the other node).

Take steps to detect and manage joystick and system failures that may cause an erroneous output. For safety critical functions Danfoss recommends you use an independent momentary action system enable switch. You can incorporate this switch into the joystick as an operator presence switch or can be a separate foot or hand operated momentary switch.
