Shuttle Jog Controller (30616) Jog Shuttle Datasheet SB0021 - Jog Shuttle Manual machining is a breeze with full velocity and position control on all 4 axis (X, Y, Z, and A rotary). Far superior to a standard CNC positioning wheel, this USB connected electronic hand wheel has two concentric wheels controlling both position and velocity. The inner wheel operates as a standard CNC jog wheel and allows precise position control of any axis. Each click on the inner wheel will move an axis a specific distance. You can select 0.0001”, 0.0010”, 0.0100”, or define your own increment sizes like 1/16’s, 1/32’s, or 1/64’s. The outer wheel is spring loaded to center and can be used to control velocity of any axis, anything from a very slow crawl to full rapids. This combination of velocity and position in one control is very handy.		$76.38

Jog Pendent (30552) Jog Pendent Datasheet The pendent is great for jogging, setup, or manual operations. It comes with a 3' cord and a 6' extension. It connects to a USB port on your control computer. This is a lower cost alternative to the Jog Shuttle Controller.		$34.00

USB Bulkhead Cable (30278) USB Bulkhead Datasheet USB Bulkhead G-Code We prefer to keep the machine control computer inside the machine cabinet. While keeping it safe from chips and coolant, this makes it inconvenient when you want to plug in a USB accessory. The USB bulkhead cable allows easy access. One end of the cable can be mounted on a panel in the cabinet, while the other end plugs into one of the USB ports on the computer. Check the datasheet for details.		$17.84
