Spent a little more time on this project.
First, I did just add an incremental/continuous button for single step jogging by the d-pad (which for whatever reason it still allowed continuous jogging by the sticks). I tried adding a button to the Mach3 screen to single step for each direction, but it wouldn't allow "G91 G0 .001 G90" to single step, and the screen editor doesn't allow for two lines of G-code (to put the G90 on a second line). So I'm still screwing around with that idea.
Also, the jog on/off only turns on and off the jogging of the d-pad, not the sticks, so I'm still looking for an "enable/disable" game pad button.
All-in-all, the $25 gamepad and mapping of buttons will be very beneficial to me. |
