Yes the buttons are the same.  The next updat that will appear today or tomorrow renames Run File to cycle start and Pause to Feedhold.  Once you are up and running the button options will soon become clear.

Jog Override appears on different screens depending upon which screenset you have.  You will usually see 100% and a plus and minus button near it.  The default is 100% and at that point the triggers do not do anything.  I use the Insomniac screen and the jog override is on the second tab.

If you check the Wiki under Resources on this site you will see documentation that lists all the codes.  There are also some good manuals describing all about how Mach works.

Hi Troy,

You should see some options such as "Jog - Right Stick SideToSide","Jog+ Right Stick UpDown", etc.  Try those.  If that doesn't do what you want, let me know.

Lee,
 Was wondering if the "Jog+ Right Stick UpDown" & "Jog- Right Stick UpDown" could be added to the Right Jog stick Left ,Right movement?
Or make the Jog sticks be able to toggle from Step to Continuous and so forth?

Thanks,
Troy

Hi Troy,

Look at the other options.  You will find everything you need (Left, Right, Up, and Down).  You will also find a choice to allow you to press a button to shift the right thumbstick in and out of incremental mode.

Hi Troy,

Try this option "Jog Mode Inc/Cont/MPG".  Assign that to a button.  Each time the button is pressed it will change Mach to the next mode ( Incremental - continuous - MPG).  It effects all axes.  Let me know if that does what you want.  I am away from my computer until next Tues.  So, if it does not meet your needs then please wait until next Tues to post a response so that it will be at the top of my email when I return.

Hello Lee,
  I tried the above and it has no affect on the jog sticks. Iam using a wired Xbox 360, does this matter?
Thanks again,
Troy
