Can we connect a jog controller to the machine?

It would be handy if we could attach a control pad, or some other such device to the control board, to move the machine head without having to use the browser interface.

Is this possible?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi,

At the moment Ooznest doesn’t offer this. There is some details on adding a pendant here: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/11389/cnc...

You can bring the web interface up on your mobile, which is normally easier than using a computer.

Best Regards

Hi Ryan,

You mention “You can bring the web interface up on your mobile, which is normally easier than using a computer. “

Do you know if it is possible to drive an ethernet connected workbee via your mobile connected to a PC with a USB wifi adaptor?

This would allow me to jog as you suggested from my mobile rather then the PC controller.

Hi John,

This is potentially possible. Depends on what operating system you are using. On some operating systems you can pass through the internet from the Wifi to the Ethernet port. This is possible on a Mac. Potentially Windows 10.
