Axis, grip and button options
According to the Makersan datasheet the MO 395 base has up to 2 axes and the grip has up to 1 axis and up to 3 buttons. The EHR Elektronik version on this page combines a 2-axis (full) base with the 388 grip with 3 buttons.
- Axis options: 2 axis full, 2 axis plus, and single axis (W-E or S-N).
- Z axis: ±45° working angle. Detent grip: ±20° working angle with 3 detent positions.
- Lifetime: up to 5 million cycles without detent, up to 2 million for the Z axis and up to 500k for the Z axis with detent.
- Grip buttons: up to 3 mechanical switches (1 mA min. – 20 mA max.) and up to 1 hall-effect low side switch (10 mA max.).
- The datasheet shows the 388, 388B and 388C grips; button symbol options include arrow, differential lock and horn markings.
- The cut-out dimensions are the same for all versions.
Operation and safety notes
Warnings from the Makersan order sheet:
- If a spring breaks, the joystick must not be used with the remaining springs.
- A joystick that has been exposed to shock or impact, or has fallen, must be scrapped and not used again.
- The safety instructions in the base and grip datasheet must be respected, and the vehicle manufacturer should take the failure modes in the datasheet into account.
Mini or midi?
The MO 395 mini joystick belongs to a family with the same manufacturer’s MO 391 & 387 midi and MO 377 fingertip joysticks. The table compares the EHR Elektronik versions on these pages.
| Model | Axes | Output | Connection | Protection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MO 391 & 387 | 2 axes (full) | CANopen | Deutsch 8-pin | IP67 |
| MO 395 | 2 axes (full) | CANopen | Deutsch DTM04-4P, 15 cm cable | IP65 |
| MO 377 | Single axis | Analog 0.5V – 4.5V | 250 mm loose cable (AWG 24) | IP6K9K / IP54 |
For all products see the Makersan page or the joysticks category.
MO 395 Mini CANopen Joystick – Datasheet (PDF)Frequently asked questions
