Hi all,

Here is the completed pendant/joystick

The potentiometer sets the feed speed for manual move
Left joystick for X and Y
Right Joystick for Z (up and down) and baby step Z (left and right)
Button on left joystick set work coordinate X Y to 0 while right joystick button set Z to 0.
Manual move occurs only when status is "Idle" and not processing.
Cable used is an ethernet cable with 8 wires, that insert between PanelDue and Duet, so Arduino is powered by Duet 5V.

I have searched a lot for smooth movements. Pushing maximum joystick sends 5mm move at maximum feed speed.
Pushing just a bit moves % (from 0 to 100%) of 5mm move and feed speed.
There is a calculation for the move duration, and send only a new G1 code only when previous move is terminated.
I can post the code but i need to clean it before.

@resam said in Macros on control page:

just to confirm, can you try and define a dummy tool

Yessss perfect
I created tool 0 "M563 P0 H0 S"Default tool" ; Create dummy tool"
And now it works, i have the 4 macros.
Thank you

Here is the sketch, need to be fine tuned but working very good already.
The wiring for serial is on this topic just above, wiring of joystick are on the Analog pins of arduino and buttons on Digital pins.

@Olivimages Are you using a normal pot(like a 10K/20K) or a rotary encoder?

I used normal pot, these one : https://www.gotronic.fr/art-module-potentiometre-gravity-dfr0054-19304.htm

Yessss perfect
I created tool 0 "M563 P0 H0 S"Default tool" ; Create dummy tool"
And now it works, i have the 4 macros.
Thank you

@resam said in Macros on control page:

The macros you are looking for show up in the web interface?
Did you use any special folder or file name?

Yes the macros appears on web interface and macro page without any problem.

@resam said in Macros on control page:

Whats your PanelDue firmware version? You can check in the Setup page.
The "4 macros on the control page" was introduced in v1.20.

I was on 1.23.2 and now upgraded to 1.24

Hello,

I see that on PanelDue 4 macros are normally on the main page.
I have all my macros on the macro page, and refreshing perfectly but i cannot populate the main page.
There is plenty of room, it's a cnc machine and only heat bed is displayed.

How these 4 macros are displayed ? Automatically ? The 4 first in alphabetical order i think.

Hi all,

Here is the completed pendant/joystick

The potentiometer sets the feed speed for manual move
Left joystick for X and Y
Right Joystick for Z (up and down) and baby step Z (left and right)
Button on left joystick set work coordinate X Y to 0 while right joystick button set Z to 0.
Manual move occurs only when status is "Idle" and not processing.
Cable used is an ethernet cable with 8 wires, that insert between PanelDue and Duet, so Arduino is powered by Duet 5V.

I have searched a lot for smooth movements. Pushing maximum joystick sends 5mm move at maximum feed speed.
Pushing just a bit moves % (from 0 to 100%) of 5mm move and feed speed.
There is a calculation for the move duration, and send only a new G1 code only when previous move is terminated.
I can post the code but i need to clean it before.

I tried this code, without storing the data in a variable it appears to react faster than before.

void loop() {
    // read from port 1, send to port 2, transmit from Duet to PanelDUE
while (Serial1.available() > 0) {
     Serial2.write(Serial1.read());
}
  // read from port 2, send to port 1, transmit from PanelDUE to Duet 
while (Serial2.available() > 0) {
    Serial1.write(Serial2.read());
}

@FelixH
Sorry, i found that a wire was broken, so now everything work perfectly

Here is the wiring

And the complete code, simplified to make first the passthrough functioning before adding the joystick code. I will post the complete code with a photo of the joysticks when it will be finished.

@bearer
Yes i read this topic many many times, tried to understand the "passthrough" code but a bit too complicated for me.
I have build a pendant with joystick and buttons that works.
The only thing that doesn't work is the passthrough for continuing to use the PanelDue.
I also tried to weld the Duet_TX to Panel_RX (so bypassing the Arduino), it is better but have no correct return (current position, etc) so i would to implement the thing using code to be transparent.
