Connecting to the 8758 Hand Control Pad

The model 8758 hand control pad facilitates local (non-computer) control of positioners connected to
8742 Picomotor controllers. It draws its electrical power from the Picomotor controller via USB
interface and, hence, does not require a separate power supply.
IMPORTANT: 8742 controller must run firmware version 2.2 (or later) to be compatible
with the 8758 hand control pad.
NOTE: Read the 8758 User's Manual completely before connecting it to the 8742 controller.
The 8758 hand control pad connects directly to the 8742 controller's USB port. Therefore, only the
controller's Ethernet and RS-485 port will be available for computer interfacing, if needed.
