This is a Joystick port Switcher for Commodore 64.

It switches the digital signals from the joystick and the analogue signals for the mouse or paddles. The Green LED is turned on when the ports are being swapped.

The Joystick port Switcher remembers the last swap state when turned off and will resume that mode when the Commodore 64 is next turned on.

Provides ESD protection for the Commodore 64 CIA’s as there is no direct connection from the Commodore 64 ports to the joystick inputs.
