CJ14 4 axis joystick for MC433G stepper motor control
The CJ14 is a 4 axis Joystick plus two switch peripheral that attaches to the MC433G. The CJ14 provides coarse and fine control (under switch selection) of axis motion on all four axis. MC433G's with Version 1.75 or higher GStep software running on the MC433G provides real time display of axis position on an attached PC or DRO48 Digital Read Out. The CJ14 and the GStep software running on the MC433G has a waypoint storage mode that allows the operator to move all four axis to defined positions and record the movements for later playback. All moves are stored in on chip EEPROM.
Real time joystick control of axis position quickly becomes an indispensable and powerful machining tool. You'll find that manual wheel turning or position jogging on the console is not really used. Combining the CJ14 with a DRO48 and position storage allows canned machining cycles to quickly be setup and executed. The CJ14 is a must have peripheral for the MC433G.
The DRO48 is a 4-axis Digital Read Out that attaches to the MC433G and displays the position of each axis in real time.
