go to 3dconnexion.com. It should have some info there.
well hell. got myself there. i was looking at the applications list for a different controller. mastercam's right there on the list for the Spaceball.
Settings - Configure - Start/Exit.
Notice the "Enable 3D Connexion device", already checked.
Buy one, plug it in and your ready to go...

I recently bought a 3DConnexions Space Pilot from this guy...

I love it. Highly recommended. Much cheaper than new.
I own 4 units can't work without them. you will find in design and programming this will speed it up and save time.

That's a great setup you've got there! Dual monitors, spacepilot and all... Do you use both space ball units together or are they from two separate systems?
Sorry one is for the laptop station on the right and the other for the dual screens.
Just was showing my old office but really just showing the two different one I had on the desks . I have one more being the Space Traveler.

Yep at home I have the dual 22" actually I have 6 of them total.
But at the work office I use this Mac 30" monitor on my Mac system.
I now have two macs running windows one using VMware on the desk top and My Macbook Pro I use bootcamp. then I have the other dell Precision m6300 and my M390 desktop plus others. Bottom line two many computers now.
Picture is my desk at the office just got my new space pilot here now.
PS mine did not come with the hand pointer like yours did.

You can send me one of those PC's but don't forget to send a SIM with X3 and a full license transfer .
I love the big monitor. I bought this 24" on sale for $689.00 from Dell. Mainly because of the viewing space, but also for the 4 extra USB Ports, xD/SD/MS/MMC and CF ports on the side. Two DVI-2, HDMI port, Display Port, one VGA, S-Video, and Audio ports, all on the bottom Easy access
Plus it does the Precision M4400 justice. I have the smaller of the Precisions which has the 15.4" wide screen.
I use the cheapo Inspiron for online and for work. The Precision stays home. BTW: it's LowJacked too
I have to start getting rid of a few things too. Maybe sell a few to a friend. He really needs a better PC. He is using an eMachine with TurboCADV16 I think. Too Slow!!!
