Thanks for updating your driver and making it publicly available. I have Andrey's pendant and tried it on my Tormach mill but had a few problems, so maybe this latest driver will help.

I have update drivers for the earlier model, the ShuttleRU LCD and ShuttleRU LCD-Status as well if anyone needs them.

Hope you don't mind if I piggy back a Q on your thread.... If you had limited funds, would you rather drop $150 on a pendant? Or a touch screen?

Pendant, no question. A pendant gives you ca level of control over the machine no touch screen can, especially for jogging. I had a touchscreen for a couple of years, and rarely used it.

I vote pendant as well without a doubt. I have both and the touch screen doesn't work well if your hands are at all wet. If any coolant drops get on the screen, the touch logic goes wacko.

Any idea if the Vista pendants will run on the older versions of Mach3?

Pendant no doubt!

All this talk of pendants got me. I order a P2-S from VistaCNC, it's great and took all of 5 minutes to get it running. I didn't know what I as missing I love this thing! I have had a touchscreen for quite a while but agree with the above. While the touchscreen was nice, with this pendant I don't see much use for it anymore.

Hi All
Got my VistaCNC iMach III ps2 today I went cheap. The PS4 was like 265.00. My hands are kind of large and the knobs are easier to move around. The blister buttons are more difficult. I don't have it hooked up yet, I'm doing some up grades to the mill right now, but I can tell it's light years better than the Xhc china unit. Thanks for the reports on the pendants everyone.
Happy Machining
