Eding pendant alternative
Hi,
I have a eding CPU5B and was looking for a pendant. On sorotec I've seen a few different ones.
A cheap diy https://www.sorotec.de/shop/Handradb...-EdingCNC.html
And a genuine Eding for 297,- https://www.sorotec.de/shop/Wireless...l--Lizenz.html
After seeing the picture of the genuine I was pretty sure I've seen it before.
It took me a while, and then I was scrolling through aliexpress and there I suddenly saw a pendant that was exactly the same. Well after checking both pictures I noticed the FN button has a different color.

Does anyone know if that would work with a Eding CPU5B?
Thanks,

Hi Dutchy_79,
I wrote Eding-CNC with a similar question about 6 months ago.
Their answer was that:
1) I can use the pendant they offer on their website on my old CPU2 controller, so I'm assuming it should also work fine with your modern CPU5B.
2) They told me that there are a lot of pendants on the market that look the same, but are not supported.
Now I'm not sure what the difference would be, as the pendant they offer on their website and the ones from AliXpress are, to my eyes, identical up to the fonts used.

They may well be the same but one is for Mach3 not Eding it would have to be programed to suit each different control, if it was just using a cable to connect then almost any would be able to be wired to suit each control
They also have a different wireless receiver
