Kirk, Hey! That worked perfectly! Thanks!
I inserted: setp axis.0.jog-vel-mode TRUE setp axis.1.jog-vel-mode TRUE setp axis.2.jog-vel-mode TRUE into the hal file right after the: setp axis.0.jog-enable TRUE setp axis.1.jog-enable TRUE setp axis.2.jog-enable TRUE commands and now when I let go of the stick, the axis stops moving. Now I have to figure out how to map the buttons the way I want. - Michael On Apr 17, 2009, at 11:30 AM, Michael Jones wrote: > Kirk, > > That looks promising..
