    Thanks Gerry,
    The pendant you pointed out does indeed look good! however the designer is in the process of making a new type and cant supply at the moment.
    The wireless pendant arrived and has some good features, but at the moment the jogging is very jerky and I will have to persevere to see if I can resolve the issue which seems like lag somewhere in the system. Ill be able to enlarge a little later.

    The ShuttleRU-LCD is what I am using as well. I like it a lot, (especially after he sent me the source code to the plugin and I fixed a few things and enhanced a bunch of others...).
    By the way, anyone wanting the latest version, i added a safety double click option where you can assign a double key press requirement for any one of the buttons.
    The new version he is working on has a very cool customizable screen, and a few more buttons. On the down side some of the buttons are now located surrounding the mpg and it will be hard to squeeze in a label for those buttons.

    Did you get this issue resolved? You are talking about the wireless pendant of the type that salecnc sells right?

    thanks,

    Hi Brendin,
    No, I had a brief dialogue via email with salecnc when they seemed to lose interest and I havent had a lot of shed time of late to follow it up. However based on my experience I certainly wouldn't recomend this particular pendant to anyone.

    Phil.

    Phil,
    Which plugins are you currently running? I've made a bunch of enhancements to the plugin for Andrey. Are you referring to the inner ring or the outer ring?

    I just received the ebay version of this. It's the wired usb one called the Xhc; no lag. Does anyone have a problem with G73 peck drilling cycles after you install the plugin? The peck seems to be reversed, like it would rapid down then slowly retract. I disabled the plugin, and the problem went away. I don't know how a plugin can break drilling cycles, though.

    I think from what I have read and seen in videos the lag is on the inner crank wheel. Does this issue exist anymore with Andrey's pendant?

    The video I saw shows the outer wheel. Is there one that shows the inner hand crank wheel?

    I have the basic model ShuttleRU (no LCD) and it has no lag.

    From what I have seen the lag was only an issue on the LCD model and has been fixed for quite some time now.

    I am really happy with mine; unbelievable quality for the price.
    I had a bit of trouble getting it to work initially due to a computer problem on my end. Andrey, the seller, was extremely helpful in diagnosing my issue.

    If I was to re-purchase I would probably pay a bit more and get the LCD enabled version but the basic unit is great.

    I have a video of using the outer/inner wheels at:
