Golf Simulator Control Box

thingiverse

Designed up this dealer button to use in home games or have just as something laying around for any poker fan. It was inspired I designed this control box for a home golf simulator set up. I personally have the Mevo+ launch monitor, but this connects to the computer to control TCG2019. It can be used to control TGC2019 game play regardless of what launch monitor you have. Printing: Very limited Infill in this print, I suggest using 20% grid infill. Nozzle: 0.6mm Layer height 0.25mm Initial Layer height: 0.2mm Walls: 3 nozzle diameters Top and bottom thickness: 2 mm Flip orientation of the control box to put the top on the build surface. Orient the flat side of the cover on the build surface. To get the color in the text, I paused the print after the first two layers (0.5mm height), swapped the filament out. Let it print for 4 layers with the text color (yellow in my case). Then pause the print and print the remaining with the original box color (Gray in my case) **Update** I upgraded my printer with switching dual hot end, and now print this with two colors on the same layer. It also allowed me to add a bit more intricate features on the top surface. The new files include a model for the text and a logo, and a shorter control box to be less bulky. The controls use arcade buttons connected to a encoder that registers the button clicks and sends the programed keyboard key code to the computer via USB connection. I used JoyToKey software to program the encoder to send the appropriate commands for each button. The config file for JoyToKey is included as an attached file. If you keep the buttons configured the same as I have shown, this should work for you. The Mulligan button configuration is a bit complicated due to the delays needed between the 4 commands it needs to send. Reach out to me if you have trouble with this and I can help.
