1. A method for mapping functions of a multi-dimensional input device, operatively connected to a monitor, the method comprising the following steps:
- displaying a graphical representation of a button or an other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150), displaying at least one available driver function for the input device (130, 140, 150), and mapping a selected function to a button or other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150) by graphically associating the specific function with the button or degree of freedom.

Abstract
A method for mapping functions of a multi-dimensional input device is proposed, wherein a graphical representation of a button or an other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150) is displayed on a screen or monitor. Furthermore at least one available driver function for the input device (130, 140, 150) is displayed. A selected function can be mapped by a user to a button or other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150) by graphically associating the specific function with the button or degree of freedom.

17. A multi-dimensional input device having a mapping configuration module (200), the mapping configuration module (200) comprising:
-
a feedback interface (297) for controlling a display device (120) to display a graphical representation of a button or other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150), and to display at least one available driver function (220) for the input device (130, 140, 150), and a configuration file (265) for storing mappings of a selected function to a button or other degree of freedom of the input device (130, 140, 150), the mapping being effected by graphically associating the specific function with the button or degree of freedom. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
