    Need Help pyvcp,halui,pendant jogging

    Hi having some newbie difficulties
    I'am trying to setup axis to allow jogging from keyboard,pyvcp panel and my
    pendant (gamepad). i can get both pyvcp and input(gampad) to function along with keyboard jogging but cant get all three to function. is there a way i can logic the gampad or pyvcp using maybe gamepad button or pyvcp choice. have used what i can find on the wiki page. tried hal joystick w/encoder sigs prior and found it to be a bit sluggish. have been working with halui and input at this point. my gamepad only offers x,y and i think 7 buttons so i will need to do some creative coding for a Z or use buttons to select axis to jog or something.

    example code only not the exact syntax:

    my pyvcp
    net remote-jog-plus halui-jog-plus <=pyvcp

    my gamepad
    net remote-jog-plus halui-jog-plus <=input-jog-plus

    thanks gads

    I don't think you are allowed to hook two writing HAL pins to a reading pin ?

    So you need a mux somewhere that switches between your gamepad, keyboard, and pyvcp panel.

    it should work like this...

    net remote-jog-plus halui-jog-plus <= pyvcp.my-button
    net remote-jog-plus <= input-jog-plus

    take a look on this page for an example
