Hello,
I am using the Teensy 3.5 as the controller for my custom joystick.
For this I am using the USB type: Flight Sim + Joystick
The first prototype worked well but when I ordered a second AND third Teensy board, the same USB type no longer works.
Same code/USB type still works on my first Teensy board but not on my other two.
To solve the problem I select USB type: Keyboard + Mouse + Joystick
Uninstalling / re-installing everything produces the same results.
To be a bit more clear, this is what happens when I try to use USB type: Flight Sim + Joystick on the latest Teensy boards.
- The code compiles without any errors.
- Windows detects "Teensy Flight Sim Controls" and it appears in "Devices and Printers"
- When I open "Teensy Flight Sim Controls" Properties, nothing shows up in the test page
- Same results on different OS and different computer
With the original Teensy board when I open "Teensy Flight Sim Controls" Properties, I am able to see the axis and buttons so I can test them and make sure everything works correctly.
Stating the obvious, my end user software doesn't recognize the joystick when this problem is occuring.
If I load USB type: Keyboard + Mouse + Joystick, windows detects everything and I can use my joystick but its loaded as a keyboard in devices and printers and I need to select the joystick from a drop down menu which is not as "nice"
I really do not understand what is going on.
Am I using a counterfeit Teensy?
Did something change from an older Teensy revision to this newer one?
Does the library need to be amended to make it work using Flight Sim Control + Joystick?
Cheers,
E.
