The controller is plug-and-play, meaning no additional software drivers are required for its basic functionality once connected to a compatible CNC machine.

6. Instrucións de funcionamento

The MPG Pendant Handwheel Controller provides intuitive manual control over your CNC machine's axes and movement speed.

6.1 Axis Selection

Use the left rotary knob to select the desired axis for operation:

  • OFF: Disables MPG control.
  • X: Selects the X-axis for movement.
  • Y: Selects the Y-axis for movement.
  • Z: Selects the Z-axis for movement.
  • 4, 5, 6: These options are typically invalid or reserved for advanced multi-axis systems not supported by standard 3-axis CNC routers like the Genmitsu 3018 series.

Selección de 6.2 velocidades

Use the right rotary knob to select the desired movement speed multiplier:

  • X1: Low speed movement.
  • X10: Medium speed movement.
  • X100: High speed movement.

6.3 Manual Handwheel Control

Once an axis and speed are selected, rotate the large silver handwheel to move the selected axis. The speed of the axis movement will correspond to the selected speed multiplier and the rate at which you turn the handwheel.

7. Consellos de usuario

  • Verificación de compatibilidade: While designed for Genmitsu 3018-PROVer and 3018-MX3, compatibility with other CNC models (e.g., Genmitsu 4040pro) is not explicitly guaranteed. Always verify the connector type and pinout requirements of your specific CNC machine before purchasing or connecting.
  • Montaxe segura: Utilize the adsorption magnet or hook feature to securely mount the handwheel controller near your workspace for convenient access and to prevent accidental drops.
  • Gradual Speed Adjustment: When making fine adjustments, start with the X1 (low speed) setting and gradually increase to X10 or X100 as needed for faster movements.

8 Solución de problemas

  • O controlador non responde:
    • Ensure the DB15 connector is fully and securely plugged into the CNC control board.
    • Verify that the CNC machine is powered on and functioning correctly.
    • Check the axis selection knob on the handwheel controller to ensure an axis (X, Y, or Z) is selected, not 'OFF' or an invalid axis.
  • Incorrect Movement Speed:
    • Adjust the speed selection knob (X1, X10, X100) to match your desired movement increment.
    • The actual movement speed is also dependent on how quickly you rotate the handwheel.
  • Conexión intermitente:
    • Inspeccione o cable para detectar calquera dano ou dobraxe visible.
    • Ensure the connector screws (if present) are tightened to prevent accidental disconnection.

9. Mantemento

  • Limpeza: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the controller. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the surface or internal components.
  • Almacenamento: When not in use, store the handwheel controller in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and excessive dust.
  • Coidado do cable: Evite curvas bruscas ou tirar demasiado do cable en espiral para evitar danos internos no cable.

10. Garantía e soporte
