Using a USB Joystick

[Fluxanode]

Is there a method to use a logitech USB joystick on the teensy 4.1?

Maybe...

USBHost_t36 library with JoystickController (probably requires one or more USB HID objects to be included.
You should try the Joystick example sketch.

Yes I will do some trial and error with the example, thanks.
Do you, or anyone for that matter, know where to get serious logitech documentation? Like comms details or protocols for talking with the Logitech joystick via USB?

Sorry no. I end up googling to see if I find anything. Or look at Linux drivers, etc.

First thing I would probably do if the above example does not work, is to try the the USBHost example HIDDeviceInfo, and post the information
here. Also post more information, like which Logitech it is, maybe a link to it, etc.

The device is the https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/shop/p/farm-simulator-side-panel joy stick. I have built a data acquisition system using a teensy 4.1 and want to add a joystick to control a back pressure choke for manual MPD drilling control.

My guess is, that it will be some form of composite device. Joystick? Maybe keypad or not... Will be interesting to see what HIDDeviceInfo shows for it
