Magellan/SPACE MOUSE Operation

For basic information on how to install, use
and configure the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE,
please review the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE
User's Manual. It is included on the LogiCad3D
CD-ROM and is also available on our website
at www.logicad3d.com/docs.

Manual Configuration

The various operating modes and sensitivities
of the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE may be
manually configured using the eight predefined
key combinations described below. The keys
must be pressed simultaneously . Press and
hold the star key followed by the desired
numerical key. For functions with on/off states,
switching on is indicated by a double beep and
switching off is indicated by a single beep.
K<*> and K<1>
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. Subsequently the Magellan/
SPACE MOUSE sends an "m..\r" command
without request. The default is ON.
K<*> and K<2>
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.
Subsequently the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE
sends an "m..\r" command without request.
The default is ON.
K<*> and K<3>
Dominant Mode ON/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. Subsequently the Magellan/SPACE
MOUSE sends an "m..\r" command without
request. The default is OFF.
K<*> and K<4>
Zeroing
The Magellan/SPACE MOUSE is zeroed at the
current position of the cap, as indicated by a
double beep. All subsequent inputs are relative
to this position. Subsequently the Magellan/
SPACE MOUSE sends an "z\r" command
without request.
K<*> and K<5>
Translation Sensitivity
The translational sensitivity is increased
incrementally on a scale from zero (the
default) to 7, as indicated by a single beep.
Activating this key sequence the eighth time
resets the translational sensitivity to zero, as
indicated by a double beep. Subsequently the
Magellan/SPACE MOUSE sends an "q..\r"
command without request.
K<*> and K<6>
Rotation Sensitivity
The rotational sensitivity is increased
incrementally on a scale from zero (the
default) to 7, as indicated by a single beep.
Activating this key sequence the eighth time
resets the rotational sensitivity to zero, as
indicated by a double beep. Subsequently the
Magellan/SPACE MOUSE sends an "q..\r"
command without request.
K<*> and K<7>
Zero Radius
The minimum displacement of the cap required
to cause movement is increased incrementally
on a scale from zero to 15 (the default is 13, as
indicated by a single beep. After 15 the setting
is reset to zero, as indicated by a double beep.
Subsequently the Magellan/SPACE MOUSE
sends an "n..\r" command without request.
