Title: Axis Select
Post by: chrisi123 on August 28, 2016, 03:32:11 AM
Hello,

I use a pokey to control mach3. I want to select with a button the axis for the MPG.
I want to use only one button so at the start X is selected, when i press the button Y is selected and so on

Can somebody help me to realize this idea as simple as possible

best regards

Which Pokeys do you have?

The u57 (usb) can act as a keyboard emulator, hence a button press on the Pokeys translates to a keyboard keypress.

Hence you can use the hotkeys to perform functions with any coding nessary.

If you have the Ethernet version... no idea...
