In a device (1) for generating control signals that can be evaluated electrically, which are generated by the manual actuation of a joystick (4) inserted in a housing (3) of the device (1) and which can be deflected in various movement directions, it is intended to ensure that exclusively intended control movements of the joystick are transferred without imposing any physical strain on the user when the user operates the joystick. Furthermore, the operating safety of the device or the electrical circuit should be capable of being checked and guaranteed throughout the entire service life. This task is accomplished in that one or more sensor switches (11) are integrated in the outer jacket surface of the joystick (4), each of these can trigger a check signal (13) and the device (1) can be activated by the check signal (13) or check signals (13).
