Center on your joystick should read (approximately) 127 127.

The third and fourth numbers in the display are the joystick buttons. Pressed, they should read higher than 128, and lower than 128 when not pressed.

Hardware Buttons

There are two switches on the RetroConnector Keyboard Interface board. They are labelled "Apple" and "CTRL+RESET"

Pressing the "CTRL+RESET" switch sends CTRL+Reset to reset the system. Hold the "Apple" switch while pressing "CTRL+RESET" will reboot the computer.
