Page 3: Introduction And Overview
w ireless Shield-PS2 has stackable side headers which allows for more Arduino shields to be stacked on top of it. Besides, user has option to use either h ardware or software UART w ith Arduino’s main board to communication to get the PS2 controller status. Shield-PS2 reset is connected to arduino’s analog pin 1 (A1). -

Page 8: Hardware Interface
If hardware serial pin (D0, D1) is selected, user needs to u nplug t he P S2 Connector from the Shield-PS2 before start to program the main board. Programming of main board may fail if the Shield-PS2 is stacked on mainboard and PS2 controller connector is connected. - Page 9 Cytron’s website. Connect the PS2 joystick to the PS2 connector socket on SHIELD-PS2 as shown. Don’t forget about the power source for the Arduino main board too. Power source for the Arduino main board is from DC adaptor plug.

- Page 16 S hield-PS2 6. PROTOCOL By default, Shield-PS2 is in passive condition, where it waits for command from UART. If Arduino main board sends a command, it will response based on the command and the status of PS2 button and joystick. The command is simple, it is in value. Each value will request Shield-PS2 to check the particular button or joystick status on PS2 and response.
