Hi There,

I'm at a bit of a loss on how to connect my DeskCNC ready Pendant I have just received.

From the SYS-3A instructions I received with it, I figured out the white connector goes to the Encoder connection, and the black one seemingly goes to the Input I/O? Is that correct? I don't have a SYS-3A machine, I'm using the 2nd Gen card to drive my own machine.

I simply cannot figure out how it should be done, does it mean I now lose my X, Y and Z auto homing switch inputs, limit switch input for my toolsetter/probe, and the pause/cycle start functions?

Should I maybe have to make up some or other Y-lead, and plug in the existing functions, as well as the pendant, and the software switches between the two?

I would appreciate some clearer instructions when using it with a stock DeskCNC 2nd Gen card, without making references to the SYS-3A system.
