At work we run a CANalyzer software that records certain data desired from the truck. To initiate the recording session the 'F9' hot key is used. To end the session 'Esc' is used. Is there a 2-button (or better yet) 3-button controller that would plug into USB or even a serial port to control the 'F9', 'Esc', and 'b' on the keyboard.
Information: I am using a Dell laptop with Windows XP operating system. The CANalyzer runs on a Vector CANcard (plugs into video card slot) and Vector cables that run from the data acquisition equipment to the CANcard.
I am new to this forum, but I have used other forums in the past. Let me know if there are other questions or information that I may need to provide for anyone that may have an idea on how to help me.
Thanks, Brian
