Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Pendant

Hi Smoke,

This device will plug into any step and direction motor control board and
drive it in four axis by means of switches set out like a joystick. It means
that you will have a power-feed for four axis with selectable speed without
a computer.

I am designing two versions, a simple user selectable speed version and a
completely programmable one. The details for the later have not yet been set
in stone.
