Organfreak, There is a reason each transducer on the stick has its own control mechanism, it is redundancy. That redundancy undoubtedly carries through in the software design of the "Bus" so that it can recognize a bad transducer, but don't ask me details because I don't know. At this point, all I know is that it would be extremely out of character not to cover that potential problem.
Thanks for addressing my question/speculation. I had assumed, apparently wrongly, that there was one TD for each direction of stick travel. Your contention that they are redundant rings true. Damn, and here I thought I'd come up with The Answer.
