Adding a second monitor to the workstation

You mean to lift the controller off the back and set it down so you can work in the cabinet? Yes. Easy peasy.

If you mean on your monitor, no clue. You'd have to look at the cable you have, maybe get an extension if you want to run the cable down the back and bring it in the bottom, reach over the PC and plug it in.

The controller isn't heavy, but it is a bit unwieldy. I used a second person so we had good control in case a cable pulled. No cable pulled.

This is the way a single Hex tech put it together, after all. They can't have made the cabling too short or he wouldn't have been able to hang the controller on the cabinet in the first place.

But I still used two people to take the controller off and put it back on. Both times.

First I took a new CMM out of that cabinet because it didn't fit (the cabinet) in the space I have for that new machine. I hung a controller from an old CMM on there.

Then a second CMM, I needed to get the networking put in (didn't have IT here when the CMM was installed), and I didn't feel like trying to break my arm reaching around the PC from the front, so I pulled the controller, connected LAN and then re-hung the controller.

Both CMM's, both points in time, two people to remove and hang the controller. Better safe than sorry.
