3Dconnexion mouse to move the robot

Hi all,

Is it possible to use a 3Dconnexion mouse to move the robot, similar to how the FlexPendant joystick operates?

Any research online only shows a manual of an add-in (poly-robotics) but I am unable to find the add-in anywhere.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg

    There was an addin for this, but it's no longer available.

    Wasn't that addin only for jogging axis by axis, i.e. no reorient or linear jog?

    Thank you both for your feedback :smile:

    Thats unfortunate, it seems like it would be a great feature to be more efficient when programming offline.

    If you move the robot to teach targets in the 3D environment, I think you can work more effectively :wink:
