Hi, I’m building a simple remote for my co2 laser using arduino and an ESP32 board that can emulate a bluetooth keyboard, here is the preliminary layout so far
What I’m missing and from what I read so far, there is no STOP or PAUSE shortcuts due to security reasons.
I think a remote of this type can benefit greatly by having at least a pause button, even better pause and stop buttons.
Is it much of a hassle if I ask for an obscure keyboard combination or even obscurer keyboard escape code for pause and stop that can be only used by a keyboard emulator remote like the one I’m building?
The ruida remote is not what I have in mind, I’m emulating a keyboard keystroke but wirelessly, its like having a second keyboard attached to the computer running LB.
That seems to simplify it quite a bit. Maybe you should post questioning what those specific ones are.
There is also Feature Suggestions that will allow you to post a request and the users vote on it. I’d love to be able to pulse my laser when I’m at the back opposite corner adjusting a mirror…
Before posting this I read previous posts about this same thing, shortcuts for STOP, and there were always concerns regarding safety. Thats why I ask for keyboard codes that cannot be easily entered on a regular keyboard
That would eliminate the concerns and keep the benefits.
