Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Found a commercial CNC pendant

Carlos:

Master5 does use a joystick, it uses a USB joystick so any joystick with
a profiler program will do. The joystick, although hard coded into Master5's
keyboard jog, also operates almost any function, simply by running a gamers
profiler and telling it what button is equal to what keypress. Any windows
CNC program will give at least the "hot keys" functions of this. It works
well and is pretty cheap to implement. When you consider how many buttons
and wheels are on a modern joystick it seemed a handy function to implement.
