Dpad interface questions.
« on: September 07, 2006, 06:25:01 PM »
Iinstalled a Dpad (cheap wired type) on my Mach3 machine for jogging table and Z.
that part was easy with Keygrabber since they are specific keys.

I would like to program the following functions into this dpad, can someone tell me the Key sequence to
JOG speed +
Jog speed -
E stop

TO Art

I found the keyscan codes for the above functions.  estop=192,  jogs speed - = 112, jog speed + = 111.
How can i get these into Key Grabber.  It appears to be looking for a Keypress and will not let me do manual entry.
Is there a workaround.  Sorry to be a problem but i'm learneing a lot.

If I was you I would just reprogram it to what you would like it to be... You can reprogram the hot key in Screen 4


Hope that helps

it will stay that way as long as you keep using the same screen set.

BTW
112=F1
111 = / (this is the / on  the numeric part of the keyboard)
192 = '
