Sharing with this community. I have the MegaV 19x19 w/ Aluminum Bed, controlling it from a 6 years old laptop running Win10. I was able to rig up a pendant control by using an old PS3 game controller, it is wired via usb cable to my laptop. I'm using UGS Platform, but to get everything working, I had to load the driver ScpToolkit, then Joy2Key, and spent about an hour mapping the keys to the PS3 Buttons. I've also spent some time applying labels to the keys. Overall, the PS3 controller works very well with this setup. Jogging the MegaV is so much better now.

This is great. I've been wanting to do this, as using my laptop to jog gets really old quick.
Any chance of you doing a small write up on this?

That is awesome! Are the ScpToolkit and Joy2Key drivers open source?

I use XPadder and an XBox 360 controller. Very Happy with it. Took about 20 minutes to set it up.

No I’m not wireless. But that is just because I had a wired controller. It will work wirelessly if you have one of those Xbox wireless receivers plugged in.
