Up to two UltraStik 360's can be used in combination with the QuadStick at the same time.  The XY position of the UltraStiks can be used in a Game Configuration file just like the Mouth Operated Joystick position itself.   This allows a user with some arm movement to map an UltraStik as one of the Analog sticks while the using the mouthpiece as the other.
 
The UltraStiks and the QuadStick must all be connected over USB to a Windows PC running the QuadStick Manager Program.  The QMP relays the data from the UltraStiks to the QuadStick, where it is used in a game configuration.  The output from the QuadStick can be used by the PC or through a CronusMax, to a game console.  See below for a wiring diagram.
 
A single UltraStik can be connected directly to the USB-A connector on the back of the Quadstick, but a CronusMax or Brooks Super Converter may be required for the PS4 or XBox One.  A PS3 or Nintendo Switch can be used without any converters.
 
 
The QMP can relay the values from one or two pointing devices to the Quadstick.  The values can be transmitted to the Quadstick over the USB connection or via a serial connection (Bluetooth or cable).
 
The scenarios are:
 
  • Single UltraStik 360
  • Two UltraStik 360's
  • An UltraStik 360 and a mouse
  • A mouse.
 
The mouse pointer can be controlled by any mouse or mouse substitute, like a TrackIR or Tobii Eye Gaze system.
