The analog module allows an external analog signal to act as the target of another axis. This is used for joysticks controlling either position or velocity.
To use a joystick to control speed together with a tachometer requires an analog module with drive outputs; therefore, only the 16-bit modules can be used. For details on speed control, see the Speed Control topic.
For details on configuring the analog module for your control and transducer type, refer to Using Analog Channels as Velocity Inputs, and Configuring the Analog Transducer Type.
The joystick feedback can be filtered to provide smooth motion. See the Reference Axis Filtering for details.
