Ps2 controller analog stick problem

Help & Support Robot Parts

hello everyone,

I have built a qudrapod and everything has gone well so far. I am having one problem that I need some help with. Whenever I press the analog sticks on the ps2 controller, the robot does nothing. Everything else seems to be okay. When I press the buttons of the ps2 controller they make noises on the botboarduino. And im sure the botboarduino is communicating okay with the SSC-32 because I was able to complete the servo offsets in the serial monitor screen. And the phoenix code compiled and uploaded okay prior to that. I am using a Quad version of the software and also included The Bill Porter PS2 library. Again everything seems okay, just the robot does not respond to any analog joystick movements @ the ps2 controller. Any thoughts on the issue or issues?
Best regards,
Adam

Hey @abeauchot

I would suggest you in this case to use the serial monitor from the Arduino IDE to verify if the PS2 controller is sending values with you do move the joystick. This would help you confirm if the analog sticks are working well.
