* 5V and GND are exchanged with each other, and,
* on CPC+ the buttons must be connected to a "select" line (instead of to GND).

* Two analogue joysticks could be connected by using an Y-cable. The Fire signals are the same as for the normal (digital) joystick port. Joystick 1 buttons should be connected to Pin 2,4,6, and joystick 2 buttons to Pin 10,12,14. Like the digital [[Joystick Y-cables]] the analog Y-cable should have '''diodes''' in the button lines.
* The A/D inputs have an input range of 0V (data = 00) to 2.5V (data = 3Fh), and an input impedance of 180k to Vcc.
