Thanks Gerry,
The pendant you pointed out does indeed look good! however the designer is in the process of making a new type and cant supply at the moment.
The wireless pendant arrived and has some good features, but at the moment the jogging is very jerky and I will have to persevere to see if I can resolve the issue which seems like lag somewhere in the system. Ill be able to enlarge a little later.

The ShuttleRU-LCD is what I am using as well. I like it a lot, (especially after he sent me the source code to the plugin and I fixed a few things and enhanced a bunch of others...).
By the way, anyone wanting the latest version, i added a safety double click option where you can assign a double key press requirement for any one of the buttons.
The new version he is working on has a very cool customizable screen, and a few more buttons. On the down side some of the buttons are now located surrounding the mpg and it will be hard to squeeze in a label for those buttons.

Did you get this issue resolved? You are talking about the wireless pendant of the type that salecnc sells right?

thanks,

Hi Brendin,
No, I had a brief dialogue via email with salecnc when they seemed to lose interest and I havent had a lot of shed time of late to follow it up. However based on my experience I certainly wouldn't recomend this particular pendant to anyone.

Phil,
Which plugins are you currently running? I've made a bunch of enhancements to the plugin for Andrey. Are you referring to the inner ring or the outer ring?

I just received the ebay version of this. It's the wired usb one called the Xhc; no lag. Does anyone have a problem with G73 peck drilling cycles after you install the plugin? The peck seems to be reversed, like it would rapid down then slowly retract. I disabled the plugin, and the problem went away. I don't know how a plugin can break drilling cycles, though.

I think from what I have read and seen in videos the lag is on the inner crank wheel. Does this issue exist anymore with Andrey's pendant?

[skmetal7]

He has a video showing the new plugin version and it has no lag.

The video I saw shows the outer wheel. Is there one that shows the inner hand crank wheel?
