Built for the
Machine Network.
CAN joysticks with CANopen and SAE J1939 communication across F14, F15, H11 and H10 platforms — designed for direct integration into modern mobile and industrial machines.
A CAN joystick becomes part of the machine communication architecture rather than simply providing individual analog position signals.
CANopen and SAE J1939 allow joystick information to be transmitted directly over the machine network using established industrial communication standards.
The result is a more integrated operator control concept with configurable communication parameters and a common CAN platform across several joystick sizes and architectures.
Designed around
modern machine architecture.
CANopen + J1939
Support for two established CAN protocols used across industrial and mobile machinery.
9–36 VDC
Designed for direct integration into common mobile-machine electrical architectures.
Configurable Communication
Communication parameters can be selected according to the machine architecture and required protocol.
Integrated Controller
Joystick signals are processed directly in the CAN controller before transmission onto the machine network.
Choose the control.
Keep the interface.
The CAN platform is available across four different joystick models, allowing the mechanical control to be selected around the operator and the application while maintaining a common communication architecture.
F14
Compact finger-operated joystick platform for machine controls where panel space and direct proportional operation are important.
F15
Finger joystick solution for compact operator interfaces, radio controls and machine armrests requiring CAN communication.
H11
Modern compact hand-joystick platform with exceptionally low installation depth for space-constrained machine controls.

H10
A larger, robust modular hand-joystick platform for demanding machinery and configurable operator-control applications.
Explore H10 →CANopen or SAE J1939.
Industrial CAN communication.
CANopen provides a structured communication architecture with configurable node parameters and established CANopen services.
Built for mobile machinery.
SAE J1939 provides CAN-based communication commonly used in off-highway, commercial and mobile machine architectures.
The joystick becomes part of the network.
With CAN communication, joystick position and operator-control information can be delivered directly to the machine network.
This allows the control interface to be designed around the overall machine architecture rather than treating every joystick signal as an individual wired connection.
One communication platform.
Multiple joystick formats.
Available functions and communication parameters depend on the selected joystick and CAN configuration. Final specifications should be confirmed for the individual machine application.
CAN control for demanding machinery.
CAN joysticks are particularly relevant where operator controls need to integrate directly into an established machine-network architecture.
