Introduction to Cyberpuck

Cyberpuck is a 3D input device that is used tocontrol the position and orientation of 3Dgraphical objects in virtual space. The devicecontrols three translational degrees of freedom(X, Y and Z) and three rotational degrees offreedom (A, B and C).

How Cyberpuck Controls Six Degrees ofFreedom

Moving the onscreen object is as easy asmoving the Cyberpuck cap. Shift the cap rightor left to move the onscreen objecthorizontally through space. Pull the cap up orpress it down to move the object verticallythrough space. Pull the cap toward the user orpress it away to zoom in and out. Rotate thecap about the desired axis to rotate theonscreen object.

Note that the values input by Cyberpuck arenot interpreted as absolute position commandsbut as velocity commands. When the cap isdisplaced translationally or rotationally by aconstant amount (a distance measurement),the graphical object is assigned a continuous

speed in the same direction (a velocitymeasurement). The magnitude of the cap’sdisplacement determines the magnitude of theonscreen object’s velocity.

Two Hands for Intuitive Control

Cyberpuck allows for simultaneous control ofsix degrees of freedom with only one hand.When used in conjunction with 3Dapplications, it takes over the functions of theviewing and supply hand (e.g. for a right-handed person this is the left hand) and isused for 3D motion control. The working hand(e.g. the right hand) operates the conventional2D mouse, which is used for pointing andgeneral screen navigation. This corresponds tothe natural way of working with real objectsand therefore supports intuitive control whengenerating and manipulating objects in 3Dvirtual space.

How to Optimally Handle Cyberpuck

Spread three or four fingertips around the capand gently shift and twist it. Apply only lightfingertip pressure to the cap. DO NOT graspthe entire cap in your hand. It does not matterwhether the right or left hand is used. Noshoulder or wrist movement is necessary. Theergonomic design allows the hand to rest onthe device without fatigue.

Displacement Range

The cap may be shifted up to ±1.5 mm in thetranslational directions. The cap may berotated up to ±4 degrees in the rotationaldirections.

Cyberpuck Measurement System

The cap movements are measured inside thecap by a worldwide-patented, optoelectronicmeasuring system. The cap is suspended bysprings and always returns to its initialposition.

1 Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROMdrive.

2 The installation program setup.batautomatically begins (if auto-start isactivated on your CD-ROM drive).Continue with this installation programonly if Run setup.bat is listed for yourapplication. (If Run setup.bat is not listedfor your application, you should cancelthe installation and follow the instructionsgiven for your application. SeeApplication List & Driver InstallationInstructions.)

3 Select Cyberpuck installation.

4 Follow the instructions onscreen. Makesure the destination folder is the one towhich you want the driver to be copied.

5 Select the applications with which youwish to use the Cyberpuck.

6 If you select Start the driver now, theCyberpuck should respond with twobeeps indicating that it is receiving powerand working properly. The driver icon willalso appear at the lower-right corner ofthe Windows Taskbar.

7 Select Start the 3D Cube Demo topractice using Cyberpuck.

Startup Tips

In order to use the Cyberpuck, you must startthe driver (BEFORE starting your CADapplication) each time you log on to thesystem. Alternatively, you can put the driver inthe Startup folder, so that it startsautomatically every time you log on. Thedriver icon will appear in the Taskbar if thedriver has been initialized successfully.

Readme Files

To install additional drivers for otherapplications, follow the instructions in theReadme files, which are located on the CD-ROM in subdirectories under the names of theappropriate applications.

Cyberpuck Features

Cyberpuck has five fully-programmable “virtualbuttons” and a variety of software featuresthat allow the user to customize the device.

Cyberpuck Virtual Buttons

The five Cyberpuck virtual buttons referred toas north (N), south (S), east (E), west (W) andcenter (C). The buttons are located on theCyberpuck cap as shown in the diagram below.

The virtual buttons are activated by pressingdownward on the Cyberpuck cap with a quicktipping motion of your finger. The functions ofthe buttons are set by the user. SeeProgramming the Virtual Buttons.

3D Controller Panel

From the main window of the driver, clickPanel to open the 3D Controller Panel window,shown at right.

CyberpuckUse the five tickboxes labeled North, South,Center, West and East to individually toggle onand off the corresponding virtual buttons. Thepull-down menus located next to each tickboxare used to assign “button number” fields toeach virtual button (see Programming theVirtual Buttons). Use the ButtonBeep tickboxto toggle on and off the “beep” sound made bythe Cyberpuck when the virtual buttons arepressed. The Button Window tickbox opens asmall window that displays the key sequencemapped to the virtual buttons whenever theyare pressed.

3D ModesThe Translation button turns the translationaldegrees of freedom (inputs X, Y and Z) on andoff. Turning translation off fixes the “screenposition” of the onscreen object. The default isON. The Rotation button turns the rotationaldegrees of freedom (inputs A, B and C) on andoff. Turning rotation off fixes the orientation ofthe onscreen object. The default is ON. TheDominant button turns the dominant mode onand off. When dominant mode is on, only theinput of the greatest magnitude is registered,i.e. the onscreen object moves in only onedirection at a time. This can be a translationalor rotational direction. Dominant mode isespecially helpful when learning how to usethe Magellan/SPACE MOUSE. The default isOFF. (Note that turning off the translation orrotation or turning on the dominant modecauses the virtual buttons to be disabled.) Usethe Changeable tickbox to fix and unfix thecurrent translation, rotation and dominantmode settings. In some cases you may wish touse the Use a horizontal screen tickbox toswap the Y- and Z-inputs and the B- and C-inputs, e.g. when using the LCD display of alaptop computer horizontally. Click Hardware

10

Reset to redefine the zero position of the cap,e.g. if the onscreen object begins to drift.

QuicktipUse the Quicktip button to collectively toggleon and off the virtual buttons. Untick theQuicktip tickbox to completely disable thevirtual buttons.

Overall AbsorptionUse this slider bar to adjust the minimumdisplacement of the cap necessary to causemovement of the onscreen object. Increasingthe overall absorption may be helpful in workenvironments with vibrations (e.g. industrialenvironments), which may cause theCyberpuck to register unintentionalmovements.

Translation SensitivityUse the slider bars to individually adjust thesensitivities of each translational degree offreedom. As an example, it may be useful tohave faster zoom response (Z-sensitivity) thanpan response (X- and Y-sensitivity). As thesensitivity is increased, the same movementsof the Cyberpuck cap will generate quickertranslations of the onscreen object. Use thetickboxes next to the adjustment bars totoggle on and off the individual degrees offreedom. Click Default Sensitivity to reset allthree slider bars to their default settings. Notethat for some CAD applications it may benecessary to tick the Change Y/Z Axis box,which swaps the Y- and Z-inputs.

Rotation SensitivityUse the slider bars to individually adjust thesensitivities of each rotational degree offreedom. As the sensitivity is increased, thesame movements of the Cyberpuck cap willgenerate quicker rotations of the onscreenobject. Use the tickboxes next to theadjustment bars to toggle on and off theindividual degrees of freedom. Click DefaultSensitivity to reset all three slider bars to theirdefault settings.

Programming the Virtual Buttons

The user must program the Cyberpuck virtualbuttons by assigning or “mapping” keysequences to each button. From the mainwindow of the driver, click Keyboard to openthe Keyboard Mapping window, shown aboveright. The twelve yellow tabs correspond totwelve “button number” fields in whicharbitrary key sequences may be stored. Click

one of the tabs to open a dialog box forentering a key sequence. Any key sequencemay be entered, including special keys such asAlt, Shift, Control and F1. Once a new keysequence has been entered in the dialog box,click OK. The new mapping becomes activeonce the changes are saved and the KeyboardMapping window is closed. First enter a name(e.g. a user name, an application name, etc.)in the Name pull-down menu, then click Saveand Close. Click Delete to return to the Emptyconfiguration. Note that the driver installsdefault mappings for the followingapplications: I-DEAS Master Series (v.5) Mechanical Desktop (v.2.0 and 3.0) Pro/ENGINEER (v.18 and 20)

After key sequences have been entered andsaved in the Keyboard Mapping window, theuser must assign the corresponding “buttonnumber” fields to the Cyberpuck virtualbuttons using the pull-down menus in theCyberpuck section of the 3D Controller Panelwindow. For example, to assign the function“Alt + R” to the North button, enter the keysequence “Alt + R” in one of the twelve buttonnumber fields in the Keyboard Mappingwindow. Then select the same button numberfield in the pull-down menu next to the Northtickbox.

Note that up to twelve key sequences may bestored in the Keyboard Mapping window. Thisallows the user to easily select from up totwelve functions to assign to the fiveCyberpuck virtual buttons, simply byreassigning the button number fields to thevirtual buttons in the pull-down menus of the3D Controller Panel window. Note also that thebutton number field Quicktip contains a defaultfunction that toggles the 3D Controller Panelwindow between the foreground andbackground.

Troubleshooting

Problem/Error Possible Explanations Recommended Actions

All COM portsare beingused.

The installation program cannotfind an unused serial port.

Check the system configuration to seeif there is a conflict in the IRQ or baseaddress between the serial ports andanother device (e.g. a modem) usingthe control panel. Or use the TaskManager to see if there is a driverfrom another application and/ordevice running.

Cannot find aMagellan/SPACE MOUSE3D Controller.

The Cyberpuck driver is not ableto detect the hardware device.

Make sure that the Cyberpuck isproperly connected. If you use a 9-pin-to-25-pin adapter, make sure theconnections are tight.

Magellan/SPACE MOUSEdriver isalready active.

The Cyberpuck driver is alreadyrunning in another task, probablybecause has been startedautomatically during the bootingprocess.

Remove the driver from the Startupfolder or make sure you do not start ita second time.

The application already contains asuitable driver and therefore doesnot need the Cyberpuck driverrunning.

Do not run the Cyberpuck driver.

The device is not configuredcorrectly with the application.

Check the configuration against theapplication vendor’s documentation.

Both the translation and rotationare turned off.

Activate the translation and/orrotation.

The sensitivity of the Cyberpuckhas been turned down too low forvisible motion to occur.

Check to see that the sensitivity of thedevice is adjusted correctly.

The driver is upand running,but the objectwill not move.

The application is not in 3D mode. See the application vendor’sdocumentation to make sure it is in3D mode.

The system is not able to detectthe Cyberpuck driver because thedriver file mgldrv.exe has beendeleted or moved to another file.

Use the uninstall option of theinstallation tool to uninstall the driver,then run the installation again.

Cannot find(start)mgldrv.exe (orone of itscomponents)duringbooting.

The registry-key was not removedproperly due to incorrectuninstalling.

Remove the contents of the followingkey using regedit.exe:

/HEKY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/WindowsNT/CurrentVersion/Windows/load

Appendices

Connecting to the RS232 Serial Port

The Cyberpuck is equipped with a 9-pin D-Subfemale connector. The wiring of this connectormatches any IBM-compatible PC with a 9-pinserial connector. To use the Cyberpuck withother computers, check the pin functionsagainst the list shown at right and verifywhether the Cyberpuck connector wiringmatches your system.

If not, you must use an appropriate adaptercable to connect the Cyberpuck wiring to thatof your computer. The use of the handshakesignals (CTS, DTR and RTS) is absolutelynecessary for the safe operation of theCyberpuck. Without these handshake signals,loss of data will occur. Additionally, the signallines (DTR and RTS) are used to supply powerto the Cyberpuck. Thus no external powersupply is required. The minimum outputvoltage has to be 5 V, providing a outputcurrent of 9 mA on both signal lines.

Communication via the serial port using theXON/XOFF protocol is supported by theCyberpuck, but the handshake signals (CTS,DTR and RTS) are needed for safe operation.Thus the status of the handshake signals hasto be carefully checked and treated by thecomputer. To activate the Cyberpuck, thesesignals should have a positive (active) level.
