    7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. NSTALLATION ECHANICAL In spring return models, do not operate the joystick if the internal spring has broken. Unexpected operation could result. Ideally, the joystick should be mounted in a central location at each station on-board the vessel to control steering operation.
  • Page 9 When the joystick is pushed off centre approximately 24° the switch corresponding to that particular direction will be moved to a closed-circuit position. The default wiring provided by the Kobelt factory is shown in Figure 2. Customers can connect their electrical cables to the terminal strip as desired to achieve the joystick directionality suited for your application.

  • Page 11 7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. 3.2.1.2 Non-wired joysticks ‘-G’ models Customers who order a ‘-G’ joystick without the ‘-E’ combination will not have a terminal strip or have the microswitches prewired. They therefore have the option of customizing their electrical circuit functionality.
  • Page 12 7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. 3.2.2 ‘-D’ or ‘H’ Analog output Potentiometer controlled joysticks For customers that select a ‘-D’ or ‘-H’ joystick, it comes with a 1k-ohm or 5k-ohm rotary potentiometer respectively. This configuration will give the joystick the ability to behave like an analog output device, capable of a variable voltage output within the range of the potentiometer.

    Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. PERATION The Kobelt 7165L operates on one axis of rotation. As shown in Figure 6, the joystick can be pushed either left, direction B, or right, direction A. Depending on the manner in which the joystick is configured, the outputs will be varied. A brief description of the expected joystick operational behavior is given in section 5.1 and 5.2.
  • Page 15: Electrical Configurations

    7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. 5.1.2 7165L-B, Spring return to neutral For models selected with a spring return, there is a tension spring inside the joystick that holds it in the neutral position. When the joystick is moved to either position ‘A’ or ‘B’, the spring will provide a resistance force that tries to pull the joystick back to neutral.

  • Page 27 7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. Installation instructions: Note, both old microswitches must be replaced with the new style if the retrofit is being performed. Note the connections of all wires going to the old microswitches prior to disconnecting. It will be imperative to ensure the wires go to the same microswitch as before so that the joystick will behave in the same manner as prior to the retrofit.
  • Page 28 7165L Single axis joystick Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. Desolder the wire connections on the old microswitches. Remove and discard the old microswitches. Refer to Figure 16, drill out the two threaded holes that were used to secure the old microswitches with a No.41(.096”) or 3/32(0.0937”) drill bit.
