Art,  I cannot get mine to run with the plugin.  I have enabled the plugin and conigured some of the buttons,  but the only thing that works is the inner ring moves the x axis,  but I cannot select other axis neither do any buttons work.  I also noticed that the drop downs for the inner and outer rings are blank in the plug in config.  I am using the original Shuttle Pro with the latest version of 1.90.x

What am I doing wrong?


Thanks


David

Hi David:

  The inner and out rings being blank are normal.. We dont use them as yet. But the other buttons should work. You have to restart after checking the enable box though..

  Do you get a "ding" when you press a button?

Just a thought,  I do have the contour software loaded although I removed the specific config I did originally for the shuttle.   Could that be interferring with the plugin?

David you don't need any software for the shuttle on your computer :) So take it all off and I think it will start working right :)

I tried uninstalling the contour software, but the only difference this made was that the shuttle now does nothing.

Just to be sure I have also removed all references to Contour in the registry on my PC.

PLugin is enabled and I have setup a couple of buttons to test (run file and select each of the 3 axis).

I also plugged the shuttle into a different UBS port.

Still no response from Shuttle when in Mach Mill.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

I tried the plugin on a second computer with the same result.  Am I missing a step to use the pluging?

couple quick questions,

The handwheel will work on this like a MPG right? acurate and all?

Will it work on a NON usb2.0 computer?


Nice find and nice item!

David,
Yes it should just work.. did you set it up on the settings page? and do you have a shuttle Pro 2 or one of the other ones?


Jon,
Yup it works like an MPG every click is at the inc that you have set if you are in Inc mode :) if you turn it to fast it will not keep up but it has a good feel..

I think it should work on a non usb2 but I done have one here that I can check that on :(
