Newbie- New (from the market) Pendant!! Compatible With MACH3?

[el_tony33]

Hello everyone

I had bought this pendant in a second hand street market (mercado) jeje

(see attachment far below)

My question is if it can be posible to use it with mach3 and what may I need to get it working

All the things I wish to control is to:

JOG X + and -
JOG Y + and -
JOG Z + and -
JOG A (THETA) + and -
(This buttons are already identificated)
Spindle ON
Spindle OFF
Cycle Start
Stop Code
Use The Emergency Stop

and more?

And Maybe Use One button or several from the disponibles in the matrix to change the step size per push, continous, x1, x10, x100, x1000, or something

The LCD display could be used?like this guy in the Mach3 Forum:


The little thread is here:
http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=184.0

It will be very cool to see the axis positions in the LCD display, VERY VERY COOL

jeje

So I have googled everywhere to understand how to make inputs to MACH3, one way is via DB25, and other via a MODIO (RS232)

But, If any interested and have time, to teach a little guy how to use the VB Script or Brains to configure this inputs and more important, link it with the MACH3 controls

I have found programs like keygrabber, and others but can't figure out how to use it

Some inputs like jog of every axis could be setup from mach ports and pins, but the other functions? (spin on, off, cycle start, etc..)?

I have seen in MACH3 Customization Wiki some examples of uses but nothing that I can get fully informed,the info is somekind of trivial to me at this moment

I know to program in Visual Basic language, if is needed to program, and I'm a young engineer, so you could be somekind of condensated in your answers

I hope don't bother with a fool thead

thanks for passing by

Tony
