The Burleigh 7003 Joystick is an ergonomic manual control device for multi-axis positioning systems, delivering real-time proportional input to compatible motor controllers. It operates across up to three axes with adjustable sensitivity for both fine and coarse motion control, supporting manual operation or TTL-based automated control in open-loop systems. Hall effect sensors provide 10-bit resolution at a 0.1 ms update rate, enabling high-speed, high-resolution positioning when paired with Burleigh Inchworm controllers.
