If it is actually being sent from the device, I'm sure the Linux kernel
is suppressing the relative axis changed by zero counts message to
hal_input. If the OS didn't take care to do this (something that always
makes sense with a device that is actually a relative axis) I'm sure it
would work a
Here at the CNC workshop I had an opportunity to plug in a device which
identifies as
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0b33 Product=0020 Version=0117

The bottom of the device says

Model No. S-XPRS

and there doesn't seem
It seems that others were seeing this behavior from the shuttlexpress as
far back as 2004:

Based on the vendor and product you showed me, I would try creating

John,
I can't make any promises, but I believe that hal_input, which will be
a part of emc 2.2, will support most HID devices recognized by Linux.
How's your Linux and emc expertise level? You should be able to try out
this driver with emc 2.1 by copying a few files from the development
version:

Yes.
Can EMC II use a jog wheel yet?
If so what is required?
A jog wheel. The ability to count the pulses it makes. Hardware pins
to get the pulses into the system. A few lines of HAL code to hook

Sure, but only if you want to use it for spindle speed override,
feedrate override, or axis jogging :) It's probably possible to use one
for single-stepping through
Thanks for the help John, now all I need to do is get emc II up and
running on my machine :-)

Well, that's the easy part ;)
Download the EMC2-Ubuntu liveCD and install away. It's available at
http://linuxcnc.org/iso/emc2-ubuntu6.06-desktop-i386.iso. The liveCD
has pretty big memory requirements - most people have found that you
need 256-512M RAM in the machine for the install. You
I will try that, thanks Steve

If you rich and have three wheels, you can hook one to each axis
permanently.
Yeah, rich we aren't. There is another product, whose link escapes me
ATM, with similar definition, but it can be had for as little as $29
ship, and has a USB output. No idea
