Tormach shuttle jog controler and MSM

[Dave.Sohlstrom]

Has any one had success getting Tormachs shuttle jog controller to work with MSM. I am a new owner of a Tormach 770. I hate there screens. I have MSM screens on my converted mill and love them. The one thing keeping me from changing the 770 to MSM screens is getting the shuttle working with MSM.

Hi,
I don't know any reason the Tormach shuttle control would not work. I've never owned one, but from what I've read online, they are just a normal shuttle control with some custom silk screening run via a plug-in for mach. I think I remember that Art did the original shuttle plug in and then Tormach made some mods to the software for their use (probably to match the silk screened labeling etc).

MSM doesn't know or care about mach plug-ins so my suggestion is to install the plugin, plug in the tormach shuttle and give it a go with MSM. it'll probably just work...

I have a Tormach PCNC-1100 and Tormach's Shuttle controller and it works Great under MSM--only thing you need to do is Copy the "PCNCShuttle.dll" over to the PlugIns directory where you have MSM. This is a Great Shuttle controller.
