General Mach Discussion / can i duplicate pendant buttons on my custom console?
« on: January 02, 2013, 05:06:07 PM »
I am looking to purchase a vista cnc pendant and want to run it along side a custom control.
What I am not sure on is can I have double ups of the buttons. The pendant has buttons like cycle start, pause, stop, rewind, jog and mpg and so on. So if I have those buttons on the pendant can I also have a duplicate of those buttons on my console (minus mpg)?
I am using an ipac keyboard encoder so the buttons on the console will just emulate a keyboard keystroke.
Anyone done something similar to what I am proposing?
