As near as I can tell this is basically a repackaged ShuttleXpress, but the packaging as a pendant is much more suited to the way I use it. My concerns or desires are noted in the video. My way isn't necessarily the best way, so if you see some way you think it could be better let Peter know what you would do. He is going to do that he thinks is best or will sell best. Not necessarily what you or I think is best, but he might not think of the little things you or I do.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the review. Addressing a couple of your questions:
1. Step Button. I agree with your assessment that changing the jog step is not really required as coarse movement is done with the speed wheel, with the fine movement done with the jog dial. I leave it at 0.01mm.
I could remove the button, but the intent was to make it compatible with the ShuttleXpress as it can also be used with other CMC software such as Mach 3/4, CNCDrive, LinuxCNC, Centroid Acorn, etc. The plan is to make stick on overlays to relabel the buttons.
I could put an internal jumper that disables the step button. That would give the user the choice.
2. Axis selector switch: - I thought about putting an axis selector switch in place of the four axis selection switches. The issue is that if the switch hold the input in the on state, it means that the selection of the axis can’t be done via the touch screen or display.
If there is demented for it I can certainly provide that configuration.

Essentially the goal was to make the pendant as compatible with the ShuttleXpress as possible.

I’m also planning to sell just the ShuttleJogger dial so people can make there own pendants, or mount the dial into an existing control panel.

I had not thought about the touch screen as I don't use one. Of course you have to think about all possible customers. Not just one.

I'll let you know if I think of anything else, or run across any problems.
