Motion Control Center
The Magellan/SPACE MOUSE Motion Control
Center (MCC) can be used both to directly
configure the hardware settings and to
program the standard keyboard.

Motion Control Center Main Window

The main window of the MCC, shown below,
contains basic features for configuring the
Magellan/SPACE MOUSE.
3D Modes
Translation ON/OFF turns the translational
degrees of freedom (inputs X, Y and Z) on or
off. Turning translation off fixes the "screen
position" of the onscreen object. The default is
ON. Rotation ON/OFF turns the rotational
degrees of freedom (inputs A, B and C) on or
off. Turning rotation off fixes the orientation of
the onscreen object. The default is ON.
Dominant ON/OFF turns dominant mode on or
off. When dominant mode is on, only the input
of the greatest magnitude is registered, i.e.
the onscreen object moves in only one
direction at a time. This can be a translational
or rotational direction. Dominant mode is
especially helpful when learning how to use
the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE. The default is
OFF. Use the Changeable tickbox to fix and
unfix the current translation, rotation and
dominant mode settings.
Sensitivity
Use these slider bars to adjust various
sensitivities of the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE. As
an example, it may be useful to have faster
zoom response (Z-sensitivity) than pan
response (X- and Y-sensitivity). The bars
labeled Translation and Rotation adjust the
collective sensitivities, while the six bars
labeled with the individual degrees of freedom
