The numeric keypad module is ideal for camera selection, presets, and touring functions. Button labels and legends may be customised for specific applications.
Jog/shuttle dial
The VM Desktop features a jog/shuttle dial for total control over digital video monitoring and management. In supported applications, the 360 degree jog knob may be used for editing frame-by-frame and the spring-loaded shuttle ring for variable forward and reverse speed control of captured sequences.
USB 1.1 interface
Featuring USB 1.1 interface, the VM Desktop integrates seamlessly with software applications supporting USB joystick inputs via Microsoft DirectX. No device driver or manufacture specific SDK is required, the VM Desktop is recognised as a standard HID 4 axes/29 button “game controller” joystick. The VM Desktop’s axes and buttons are programmable and function assignment is dependant on the controlled application.
