# Connect the Grove Thumb Joystick to analog port A0
# GrovePi Port A0 uses Arduino pins 0 and 1
# GrovePi Port A1 uses Arduino pins 1 and 2
# Don't plug anything into port A1 that uses pin 1
# Most Grove sensors only use 3 of their 4 pins, which is why the GrovePi shares Arduino pins between adjacent ports
# If the sensor has a pin definition SIG,NC,VCC,GND, the second (white) pin is not connected to anything
# If you wish to connect two joysticks, use ports A0 and A2 (skip A1)
# Uses two pins - one for the X axis and one for the Y axis
# This configuration means you are using port A0
