* Pin 6 - Fire 2 - This is the standard button, used by most games.
* Pin 7 - Fire 1 - This is the extra button, used only by a few games.
 
== Y-Cable ==
For a wiring diagram of an Y-cable with which you can use two joysticks on your Amstrad/Schneider CPC, see [[Joystick Y-cables]].
 
The CPC+/GX4000 they have two digital joystick ports (which works same as with the Y-cable, including for the Y-cable-style diodes, these diodes can cause problems with peripherals that use the joystick port as bi-directional I/O port).
