Hi,

I had two identical bodnar joystick bu0836: one for the encoders of nav1 
and nav2 and the other for the radio stack.
Here is the xml file for the first joystick


<PropertyList>

  <name>Leo Bodnar BU0836X Interface</name>

  <!--Encoder1A -->
  <button>
   <name>Encoder1A</name>
   <number>
    <unix>0</unix>
    <mac>0</mac>
    <windows>0</windows>
   </number>
   <desc>Encoder1 fase A</desc>
   <repeatable>true</repeatable>
   <binding>
    <command>property-adjust</command>
    <property>/instrumentation/nav/radials/selected-deg</property>
    <step type="double">-1.0</step>
   </binding>
  </button>

  <button>
   <name>Encoder1B</name>
   <number>
    <unix>1</unix>
    <mac>1</mac>
    <windows>1</windows>
   </number>
   <desc>Encoder1 fase B</desc>
   <repeatable>true</repeatable>
   <binding>
    <command>property-adjust</command>
    <property>/instrumentation/nav/radials/selected-deg</property>
    <step type="double">+1.0</step>
   </binding>
  </button>

  </PropertyList>

But how do I distinguish the second joystick? Is there any option to 
enter for example the serial number of the joystick?
Any ideas?

Thanks.
