Phone as pendant

Pair your phone and use it at the machine to jog, set zero, watch and stop.

With your phone you stand right at the machine and still have everything in hand: jog, set zero, watch the progress and stop. The PC stays connected to the machine; the phone only sends requests, which the PC checks.

The phone while pairing
Type the six-digit code from the PC or scan the QR code with the camera.

Pairing

  1. On the PC open Machine → Phone as pendant … and switch it on.
  2. Scan the QR code with the phone, or open cnc.mywerkzeug.de there and enter the six-digit code.
  3. Sign in with the same account.
  4. Allow the new phone on the PC.

Paired phones then connect by themselves as soon as the PC is reachable. On the same Wi-Fi the connection is direct and fast. If that fails, it continues via the server (Via server at the top): jogging in steps up to 10 mm, setup, start, pause and STOP work; only continuous jog, the handwheel and photos need the direct connection. The phone keeps trying to connect directly in the background and switches over by itself.

Direct only works when phone and PC are on the same Wi-Fi. Guest networks and some routers keep devices apart; on Windows it helps to set the Wi-Fi to Private network. On mobile data it always runs via the server.

Using it

  • Jog: jog pad with 0.1, 1 and 10 mm or continuous. Continuous jogging only while your finger is on the button.
  • Handwheel: choose an axis and turn the wheel; each detent moves 0.01, 0.1 or 1 mm.
  • Setup: zero X/Y and Z, probe Z, homing, go to zero, park. These buttons must be held so nothing happens by accident.
  • Job: top view with the part already cut, percent, remaining time, overrides for feed and speed.
  • At the bottom always Pause/Resume and STOP.

The speaker button at the top chooses the start and end sound on the phone.

Starting from the phone

A job is only started when you allow it on the PC: in the last step of the carve wizard choose Allow start from phone. The permission lasts 10 minutes and only for this program. On the phone you then slide to start.

Safety

  • If you operate the PC, the PC has priority for three seconds.
  • If the connection drops, any continuous jog stops immediately. A running job continues unless you chose Stop on connection loss on the PC.
  • The phone is not an emergency stop. Radio and software can fail. The emergency stop switch on the machine remains mandatory.
