Hi everyone, I seem to have hit another wall in this electronic jungle. I have a set of joysticks, that are connected to a USB port of a computer(PC) home desktop, and everything works great. My problem lye's in, when I take the same joystick and driver board, and hook it up to a new Panasonic Toughbook, and start pressing button 9 on the joystick, I get two buttons 9 and 11, that go on simultaneously. What could possibly do this??? I checked the cable and all connections.
Is the USB port on a laptop, different then the one on a desktop??
Can USB port be setup differently?
I've tried everything, even try to eliminate stray capacitance on this four layer board. (the board is just multiplexing all the switches, 12 of them).
Remember, everything works well on the desktop.
This probably isn't the best place to post this question, but it's not a project, I'm just trying to make things a little more portable here.
P.S. I tried another laptop, and same result.
