Chuck will post a typical hard wired MPG(s) to AcornSix specific schematic here tomorrow.

are you doing dual handwheels on a lathe? or?

for the Wireless pendant the WMPG-4/6 is selectable in the AcornSix Wizard, easy peasy.

Any luck with ths yet?

The joystick jog inputs have not yet been added to the wizard but will be soon.

Thank you

I have it working but I don't know how to setup the joystick in the wizard. I show it working on the diagnostic screen.

with v5.04 you need custom plc code to link the joy stick inputs to jogging.

soon (maybe later today) we will be posting a v5.06 release candidate that has the Joystick input logic preprogrammed for you and the input selections are in the Wizard, so all you will have to do is drag and drop the joystick input definitions to their corresponding input numbers that you have them wired to.

Great News Thank you. Also one thing is the AcornSix have Optoisolated output signals?

No, the AcornSix does not have optically isolated outputs. It provides open collector and 5V buffered outputs for motor drives and general purpose 16 relay outputs. If you need isolated outputs, use the relays.

However, the AcornSix inputs are optically isolated.
