5.5 JOYSTICK MONITOR OPERATOR STATION
5.5.1 MOUNTING
This operator station allows the monitor to be controlled by a joystick. The installer will need to mount the joystick and connect the
cables to the communication interface box or to a primary operator station. The joystick needs to be mounted in a weatherproof
location. Example: Inside the cab of the truck.
Select proper weatherproof operating location. Joystick will require 4 ½” x 4 ½” (114 x 114mm) of panel space. A depth of 4”
(100mm) will be required behind the panel. Refer to Figure 5.5.1.1 for hole dimensions.
After mounting, the installer may rotate the joystick up to 22 degrees in either direction. To rotate joystick, lift the rubber boot to
expose adjustable clamp. Loosen the clamping screws, rotate the joystick to desired position, and tighten clamping screws.

5.5.2 ELECTRICAL WIRING
The joystick operator station must be connected to the included Y4E-COMM Communication Interface Box or a separately supplied
Y4E-RP Primary Operator Station. By connecting the joystick to a communication interface box, a primary operator station is not
required and the installer has the option to enable the joystick operator station with the master override feature (see Section 6.2.2).
When a pump panel operator station is being installed, the installer can connect the joystick to the Primary Operator Station, which
will eliminate the need to install the communication interface box.
5.5.2.1 WIRING TO A COMMUNICATION INTERFACE BOX
The joystick cables will be connected to the factory supplied 10' cable from the Communication Interface Box. See figure 5.5.2.1.

wires if configured for GROUND inputs. This will result in
damage to the communication board. See section 5.7.3.
