Can you virtually control the pendant remote while programming in offline?

Hi guys...

I've been trying to find a feature that allows me to virtually move my probe when programming offline using the pendant.

I am having no luck. Is there a feature that allows me to do this or would this be a feature worth adding to future builds of the software?

Instead of using clearance planes and clearance cube,
I want to be able to quickly insert move points in space and I find the easiest way to do that would be to virtually control the machine and then use ctrl-m to add a move point.

I basically want to be able to move the CMM virtually instead of physically using the physical pendant remote.

Anyone know if this is do-able?

Thank you.

  • I asked at Hxgn Live this year (2022, a couple months ago) and there is no method (at present) for a virtual jog box.

    I'm more wanting a virtual EStop than virtually moving the probe about, but it comes to the same thing.



    You're going to need to do some of the work arounds listed above.


    I whined like a little baby, so maybe in the future. But not as of today.
