CNC Pendant

[Johnwa]

I’ve been working on a simple pendant for linuxcnc. It uses an Arduino to emulate a USB keyboard so I just had to map key codes to the numeric pad. As of today it is working. I think I will swap the y and z controls before I print up a final keypad label though.
For some reason the attached picture is upside down.

Gotta love Arduinos. More powerful than the AGC's on Apollo 11.

Lots of fun to play around with too.

Nice work John.
