Manually controlling machine using EMC2?

pasted the code from step 5

had to rename:

# the following does the magic of setting the jog speeds
net remote-speed-slow or2.0.in0 input.0.btn-trigger
net remote-speed-medium or2.1.in0 input.0.btn-thumb
net remote-speed-fast or2.0.in1 or2.1.in1 input.0.btn-thumb2

to this

# the following does the magic of setting the jog speeds
net remote-speed-slow or2.0.in0 input.0.btn-a <--- i didn't have any pinout named "trigger" so i set it to "a"
net remote-speed-medium or2.1.in0 input.0.btn-thumbl <----The L
net remote-speed-fast or2.0.in1 or2.1.in1 input.0.btn-thumbr <---the R

Because of pin names.

Added code from step 6 (not the reverse stuff yet)

I go to Manual control (auto when emc starst up), toggled emergency stop, turn on machine power, homed all axi...?axis's?.

I tried every button combination but the tool doesn't move.

yes, that is the one i'm following. i've tried holding down each button and moving the joystick in all directions but it wont budge.

Here is the jog for x:

Hal Config>Pins>Input>0> (halfway down)

joy - x - jog
12 float IN 32767.5 input.0.abs - x - scale
12 s32 OUT 0 input.0.abs - x - counts
12 s32 IN 128 input.0.abs - x - flat
12 s32 IN 16 input.0.abs - x - fuzz
12 float IN -0.5 input.0.abs - x - offset
12 float IN 1.525902e - 05 input.0.abs - x - position ==>

Will post screen shot



I've set the button for slow to some of the buttons in that list, but it still isn't moving.

It just doesn't make any sense. I have a button for each speed... do i need toedit the Joystick inputs? They look alright to me, compared to the given code in wiki.
