Re: puma type arm controller

David
I ran across some real easy to use "recording software" some time back
that allowed you to move steppers or servos with keystrokes and record
the movements. I do not recall how many axis. I did not have an
application for it at the time. I saved it but will need to search to
find it. Somebody here may know what I am speaking of and have it
readily available. I would work real well for your application.
