ncSender Pendant (USB or Optional Wireless)

2 reviews

A wireless pendant for ncSender — precision MPG jogging, a live DRO and full override controls, without being tethered to your computer. Orders outside the USA ship without a battery — lithium cells cannot travel that route, so you fit a local LiPo (up to 65 × 34 × 7 mm, JST 1.25 connector).

Hands on the machine

Control it where you are standing

The ncSender Pendant is purpose-built for ncSender. It puts jogging, coordinates and overrides in your hand at the machine, instead of sending you back to the keyboard between every setup move.

  • Precision MPG jogging with configurable step sizes
  • Live DRO showing work and machine coordinates
  • Feed rate, spindle speed and rapid overrides
  • Homing, probing and spindle commands

Wired or wireless

Your choice of connection

The pendant works over a plain USB cable, and a 1.5 metre cable is in the box for wired use and charging. For untethered use, add the ncSender Wireless USB — it is sold separately, so you are not paying for a second dongle if you already have one.

  • Works wired over USB out of the box
  • Wireless USB sold separately for untethered use
  • The same cable charges the pendant

On the screen

Four screens and over-the-air updates

A multi-screen interface keeps the DRO, job progress, overrides and settings each on their own page rather than crowding one display. Firmware updates arrive over WiFi, so the pendant keeps pace with ncSender.

  • Screens for DRO, job progress, overrides and settings
  • Dark and light themes
  • Over-the-air firmware updates over WiFi

International orders

Sourcing your own battery

Orders outside the USA ship without a battery — lithium cells cannot be shipped internationally on this route, so you source one locally. Any LiPo up to 65 × 34 × 7 mm with a JST 1.25 connector fits, or you can solder your own lead. This LiPo battery on Amazon is the right shape.

  • Maximum battery size 65 × 34 × 7 mm
  • JST 1.25 connector, or solder your own lead
  • USA orders are unaffected

Questions

Do I need the Wireless USB?

Only for untethered use. The pendant runs over the included USB cable as a wired device. The Wireless USB is sold separately because many owners already have one for the RGB Controller or the AutoDustBoot.

What do I need to run it?

ncSender v2.0 or later, and a free USB port — for the cable, or for the Wireless USB if you are going untethered.

Why does my order not include a battery?

Only international orders. Lithium cells cannot ship on that route, so the pendant travels without one and you fit a local LiPo up to 65 × 34 × 7 mm with a JST 1.25 connector.

Which case should I choose?

Both are the same pendant. The 3D-printed case is the standard option; the anodised aluminium case is the harder-wearing one for a busy shop.

Is a licence included?

Yes — a pendant firmware licence for one device comes with it, along with access to firmware updates.

    Awesome Pendant!

    I always knew that a pendant was a MUST once I finally got a CNC. This pendant is beyond what I even imagined. Solid architecture, programing and design. Touchscreen works and looks great! There are always new updates and even better, the pendant keeps evolving. Seamless integration with NC Sender - which is also Amazing. Thanks!

    Seriously great!

    Just got my pendant - and got to say I'm so disappointed - I plugged in the dongle and turned on the pendant and everything worked - zero messing around ... i had to actually use it to do work rather than trouble shoot my new toy all night 😉 In all seriousness - so cool - it's a really nice product @siganberg 🇺🇸! Feels super polished on the hardware and software side!
